Cheyenne was an amazing guide, she was very knowledgeable and made the whole experience fun. She was very mindful of our ages and went out of her way to accommodate us.
This tour was amazingly good! Both for the yummy food but even more so for our wonderful guide Corliss!! She was so knowledgeable and passionate that it took the whole experience to another level! While predominantly a food tour, culture is weaved throughout showing you the link between both! Any dietary requirements are asked about up front and are kindly taken into consideration. 😀 I would highly recommend this tour and Corliss as a guide!!
Had a great time on the Little India tour with Vidhya. We got to try a whole list of things we hadn't had before, she tailored the options for us and we learned a lot of context about the area too. Can't imagine only spending a short piece of a 3 neighborhood tour on this rich area so I would highly recommend this more focused tour option.
Cheyenne was a great guide to making the tour interesting on lots of levels. Had great local knowledge as well as giving some insights into Singapore life and culture. Her enthusiasm and passion for her subject shone through.
Cheyenne was a phenomenal tour guide. She catered the trip to our requests and chose excellent dishes for us to sample. She was also extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area and gave us great pointers for the remainder of our time in Singapore. Highly recommend!!
Angel provided an excellent food tour of little india introducing a wide variety of delicious foods. She described the history of the food and some cultural information about little india itself. Highly recommend!
My wife and I had the most wonderful time seeing, tasting, and experiencing Little India with our guide Kyanta Yap. He is extremely knowledgeable about the historical, cultural, political , and social aspects of Singapore. Yes, the food was wonderful but we learned more about Singapore in three hours than any other experience. This was an exceptional tour and guide!
Thanks to warm and friendly Corliss for a wonderful afternoon learning about past and present life in Little India, and for taking us to some lovely eateries in this vibrant part of the city. Best highlights were sari and fruit shopping in the Tekka Centre, followed by delicious soft dosa and spicy curry whilst chatting to the friendly local aunties and uncles in the hawker centre who were keen to share even more food with us. Loved tasty food at Komala Villas and can see why the Indian leader pays a visit when he’s in town!Definitely start the tour hungry, as you will ned lots of space to sample all the different foods, and definitely go on this tour, as it was so enjoyable. Thanks again Corliss 😀😀
We had a great tour with Alfie. Lots of different food options and history of the region. Having wandered around by ourselves in the past it was so much better exploring the area with a knowledgeable guide. Thanks for a great tour!
Colin led us through the Little India district of Singapore providing extensive knowledge and insights into the history, culture and traditions whilst relating to the unique cuisine available in this amazing yet complex community. Thankyou Colin for this insightful, entertaining and fufilling experience.
