Nice tour. Great guide

If you want to experience Singapore in a confortable and convenient way. This is the tour for you. Jason was amazing. He was knowledgeable, fun and a great person to be around. He took us around the highlights of the city although it was really late and we only had very limited time, he still managed to show us all we wanted to see. If you have a short time, on a layover, and want to make the most of it, book this tour. You will not regras it.

We hade a great day touring Singapore.

Our guide was excellent and accommodating to or needs. The tour hits all the high spots but does entail quite a bit of walking but no real problem. We were very lucky to have a day that was not too hot but might be a problem with temperature in the 40Cs in the height of summer. Possibly the itinerary is adjusted to take it into account.

Singapore Airport to City Private Tour

Jason picked us up at our cruise terminal & dropped us off at the airport. We learned a lot about the politics, & financial history of Singapore. We were Initially disappointed when he said it was mostly a city tour and not really a food tour. Since we really wanted to taste some local food, Jason was very accommodating and added some local snacks along the way. The first stop was to taste the famous Chicken Rice from the Tian Tian stall in the Maxwell Food Center, Anthony Bourdain made the place famous with his visit. We ate both the steamed and the baked versions. Places visited were Chinatown, including the Buddist Tooth Relic Temple and Museum, Gardens by the Bay, Jubilee Bridge to see the Merlion- mascot of Singapore, Sultan's Mosque in the Malay village The food we tried were Pandan cake, Ya Kun Kaya toast (coconut cream toast), and Roti with fish curry. Thank you, Jason for a wonder experience in Singapore!

Excellent! Saw so many things!

This tour was perfect. Our guide picked us up at the airport hotel at the time we desired and took us to so many amazing and iconic sites in the allotted time. He was really great at giving us as much experience in the short time we had as possible! We tried all kinds of foods and drink, even the durian fruit! Such a great time.
