Fantastic day, exploring the neighborhoods of Singapore

First, I have to say Jolynn reached out to me long before our trip to find out information and things that we wanted to see, so we had great communication before our tour. We met Jolynn at our pick up spot. We walked through the colonial and modern section of Singapore learning the history and evolution of the city. Next next we explored in Chinatown extensively visiting a shop house museum sampling some of their foods and drinks going to a temple. Such a Rich history and what was wonderful was Jolynn shared her experiences of living in that area adding a perfect personal touch. Next we went to Little India, walking the streets sampling Indian street food and learning the history of the Indian population of Singapore. Our last stop was.kampong Glam walking through the colorful bustling streets, seeing the palace and Mosque. this is a do not miss Tour, and hopefully you will have the pleasure of having Jolynn as your tour guide..

Private tour of Chinatown

We did a 2 hour private tour of Chinatown with Quek. He was so knowledgeable and excited to tell us about the history of Singapore and Chinatown. It was very interesting and informative.

Jolynn is so knowledgeable and eager to share her insights into Singapore. The best part was the visit to Chinatown, where we were immersed in the history of the Chinese community in Singapore.

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback, Deborah! I'm thrilled to hear that the time exploring Chinatown felt so immersive and brought the stories of the Chinese community to life for you. It means a lot that you appreciated the chance to dive deeper into Singapore's past and its incredible mix of people—those are exactly the moments I love sharing most. Hoping your memories of the city stay vibrant, and I'd be delighted to welcome you back anytime for more discoveries. Wishing you safe travels ahead!

The best private street walking tour with Raymond Teo

We had signed up for a three hour walking tour of the artwork in Singapore. Jerry uses an electric wheelchair and we were apprehensive that we would be able to take the tour. Raymond Teo was our guide and he helped us navigating the public rail system and the streets. As it turned out, this was the very best tour that we had taken on our 36 day trip throughout Asia. Raymond came to our hotel and made the next three hours extremely interesting and accessible for a person using a wheelchair. At each work of art, he in detail described the title and the history behind the work of art we were viewing. Because he is so knowledgeable, he was able to also describe historic and non-historic buildings as well as the artwork that we had seen. We thought it was an extra bonus that he took photos of us and with us. I would highly recommend Raymond Teo because he is the best!

Operator response

Thank you so much, Loreen, for taking the time to share this. It truly means a lot to hear that the experience stood out during such a long and memorable journey. Making the walk comfortable, engaging, and inclusive was a real pleasure, and I’m glad everything flowed smoothly along the way. It was wonderful spending those hours together and sharing Singapore through its art and streets. Wishing you many more great adventures ahead, and I hope our paths cross again one day.
