So glad you had a great time. Do visit us again in the not so distant future…🙏
Very comprehensive and knowledgeable tour with ample time to ask questions. Delivered in a simplified and interesting manner. We would recommend this tour to any visitors to Singapore.
Thank you for your kind comments and very glad you enjoyed the walk…🙏
Very enjoyable learning the history and culture of Singapore. Thank you, Jimmy, you are so knowledgeable and interesting. Best regards, Wade and Helen
Thank you & always happy to share and be of service to all…🙏🫶
We had an impressive day with Jimmy, our guide, who also took us to the most hidden corners of Singapore that we would never have found alone. Thank you also for the comprehensive explanations of many sights of the city. We can fully recommend this excursion to all visitors of Singapore who want to get a first impression. A thousand thanks, Jimmy, also for the video of our day sent to us afterwards, about which we were very happy!!!
Thank you sir, glad you enjoyed the tour.
Jimmy is very personable and he knows the history of Singapore like the back of his hand. I always have lots of questions and he could answer everything, unscripted.
Thank you for the kind comments…very glad you enjoyed the tour…🙏🫶
We had a wonderful tour with Jimmy and learned a lot about Singapore's history. Jimmy has a very pleasant way of sharing his knowledge, and we felt in good hands. We got a good overview of the city, and he also gave us some good tips for the rest of our stay. We enjoyed the tour and can definitely recommend him.
Thank you and very happy that you had a great time…🫶🙏
An informative peek into the past of an area with deep cultural diversity. Story mosaics painted from a point of view of a young person snap shots the past.
Thank you for your feedback. Mutual understanding and respect helps unite our diverse community to work towards a common cause to grow and develop Singapore…🫶🙏
Jimmy showed a great deal of knowledge in his job as our tour guide,he was continuously feeding us with brilliant stories and facts about Singapore and the places we were visiting,full 3 hours plus,well worth the money to hear a Singaporeans story of growing up in the country,highly recommend a walk with Jimmy.
Thank you for the feedback. Will always try to give my best to all.
The guide just cancelled on me at the last minute with no explanation whatsoever. Not sure why this person advertises on Trip Advisor if he’s going to act this way.
It is unfortunate that I had to cancel your booking as it was received just after I had accepted another job. And before I can update my availability on the Viator platform. Sincere apologies…🙏
The thing we liked about this tour was how Jimmy balanced his talk to combine both history and present day Singapore. The tour went so quickly and nothing was too much bother for him. We would thoroughly recommend booking this tour - it was really interesting and informative in an enjoyable way. Thank you Jimmy for a great morning 🙏
Thank you Martyn & Sherry, glad you folks enjoyed the walk and time with me…🙏
