Hi there! Nice to meet you

Monica

I love meeting people, guiding them to experience the life, culture and greenery of my country, Singapore. In the next few years, I see myself conducting more private tours for tourists who like the touristic cum off-the-beaten-path kind of itinerary.

I had just completed a course on Psychology, something which I had always wanted to do but never had time for it. Finally, I did it and understanding Psychology allows me to work even more effectively with people.

Monica picked me up at the hotel and showed me a side of Singapore that many tourists don’t see from the singing birds to the original village and local shopping areas. She was so considerate and aware of how hot it was for me that we popped into air conditioned places. So interesting to hear her personal life. A non tourist experience

We spent a fabulous morning with Monica on our first visit to Singapore with my elderly mother who had never visited before. Monica was so informative and incredibly considerate and patient with us throughout the morning we spent with her. She used different methods of transport for us and found ‘off the beaten path’ little gems to share with us. We spent lunch with her in a fabulous Hawker centre. She has a great sense of humour and was very caring and considerate thoughout the time we spent with her. We couldn’t have asked for any more; 100% amazing lady! Fantastic Guide!

What a delightful time! I just finished a weekend exploring Slngapore with Monica. Monica is experienced and extremely well prepared. If you had expressed special needs or interests ahead of time, you can rest assured that they will be well attended to. Monica knows her city well and is able to make quick schedule adjustments as necessitated by rain, excessive heat, exhaustion or changing interests. She is very sensitive to your physical needs and can always find the clean bathroom, rehydration location or attractive eating or resting spot. Monica knows the back alleys and finds the expeditious routes that minimize crowds and provide maximum cover. She seems to know the stories behind every nook and cranny of the multicultural city that is Singapore. Monica is an infectious student of history. I found that Monica anticipated my needs well and was a delightful and interesting person to converse with. She seems to have a great curiosity and passion for people and places. In ten days I will be returning to Singapore for another short visit. Monica was a real treasure source and I now feel prepared to venture out on my own in this lovely city. . Don' miss this opportunity!

Monica was a friendly, funny and very knowledgeable tour guide. Monica left none of our questions unanswered and showed us places in Singapore that we would never have seen without her. She also gave us tips and recommendations for the remaining days in Singapore. We could bring in our wishes to the tour planning. We can absolutely recommend Monica and the tour! Thank you so much, Monica, for the great experience!Perfect insights into Singapore

My daughter and I had an excellent tour with Monica of Chinatown and the downtown core. Monica did an excellent job with sharing history while making the entire tour fun and interesting- she has a great sense of humor. She did a great job of checking in frequently to see if we needed a rest or refreshments, and adjusted the tour on the fly based on our interests. I would highly recommend taking a tour with her!Great tour with Monica

We had a perfect tour with Monica. She perfectly speaks English and knows a lot to tell about Singapore. She got her to know as an open-minded and very polite person. She helped us to plan the further days of our stay in Singapore.Perfect personal guide Monica

Everything went very well and Monica is a good communicator. We appreciated the off the beaten path exposure to Chinatown. The only thing that would have made this experience better is better food choices - it sounds as if the food that we were provided was based on direction from the Withlocals corporate office.Good experinece in the hawker markets
