The name comes from the Malay language where kampung means ‘village’ and ‘gelam’ was a type of tree known as the Paperbark tree that grew in the area and was frequently used for building ships. For a long time, Kampong Glam was a fishing village due to its location on the Rochor River. In 1820s, Sir Stamford Raffles designated the Kampong Glam as well as an annual stipend to Sultan Hussain Mohammed Shah for use by the Muslim community after he signed a treaty ceding Singapore to the East India Company. The Sultan used these funds to build a palace and bring his entire family and entourage, reportedly over 600 people, to live in Kampong Glam. With these arrivals, in 1824 the Sultan decided he needed to build a mosque that reflected his status and demanded that the East India Company provide the necessary funds.

Loved this tour. Nick was very interesting to listen to and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour!
We booked “The Singapore City Tour” with Danny and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He’s a native Singaporean who has lived abroad, and that mix shows—he’s brilliant at connecting the city’s big sights with the everyday rhythms of local life. We love tours that go beyond photo ops, and Danny nailed it: thoughtful context, real stories, and clear answers to every question we threw at him. His background working in Singapore’s tourism sector really shines through. The route was efficient, the pacing spot-on, and he kept weaving in history, culture, food tips, and practical insights about how people actually live here. We left feeling like we understood Singapore, not just “saw” it. Danny isn’t the cheapest option, but in our experience you get what you pay for. His depth of knowledge, professionalism, and ability to read the group made our 4 hour tour exceptional. If you want a tour that hits the iconic sights while giving you a true feel for modern Singapore, book Danny. Totally worth it.
Short cruise up and down the river and bay of Singapore with comment on the heritage sites. Well commented and played out scenes from the past
Thank Kati for your review we appreciate your feedback.
Ishmael gave us a very comprehensive tour of Singapore. He took us to all of the advertised locations in the tour description, and gave us very good information about each one. The tour required a bit more walking than the description implied--all other tours actually described themselves as walking tours, and we chose this one because it did not. Ishmael was sensitive to the mobility issues of my wife, and had the driver drop us off with as little walking as possible. This resulted in us enjoying the tour without getting too worn out. Overall good job!
