Draad van Geloof en Stof : Singapore Kampong Glam Wandeltocht
Beschrijving
#Snaps #Eats #Vibes We streven ernaar dat onze tour al het bovenstaande heeft, naast dat we ervoor zorgen dat de wandeltocht comfortabel en plezierig is. Waarom een rondleiding met Istoria? Waarom niet? Waarom overmatig veel tijd en energie besteden aan navigeren? Ga met ons mee op een levendige reis door een van Singapores meest legendarische wijken, waar traditie en trend elkaar ontmoeten en elke hoek neuriet met karakter. Ontdek het erfgoed en de vibes die dit eclectische district tot leven brengen terwijl je door smalle straatjes dwaalt met kleurrijke muurschilderingen en indieboetiekjes. Pauzeer om de grandeur van de Sultan Moskee vast te leggen, een majestueus monument dat het spirituele hart van de gemeenschap verankert. Laad onderweg op met een lokale snack en volop fotomomenten. We sluiten af met een dessert dat gastvrijheid en verwennerij belichaamt. Een recept dat liefdevol van generatie op generatie wordt doorgegeven en de ervaring tot een zoet en betekenisvol einde brengt.

Our guide Ronald was hugely knowledgeable and very personable. We learnt about Kampong Glam and even more about Singapore in general. The whole experience was seamless and professional. We look forward to booking another tour with Ronald on our next visit to Singapore.
Thank you so much for joining our Kampong Glam walk and for sharing such a generous review. We're really glad the stories, heritage threads, and wider Singapore context resonated with you. Ronald had also shared that it was a joy exploring it together with you. We're also happy to hear the experience felt seamless from start to finish. We put a lot of care into making each tour both personable and deeply informative. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to Singapore and show you a different side of the city. Until then, thank you again for walking with us.
Even though it was short, Ronald introduced me to some delicious foods and very cute places that don't exist in my country, it was fun!! Im so happy!!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! Even though your time here was short, it’s wonderful to hear that Ronald introduced you to some of Singapore’s best-kept secrets especially yummy local bites and those charming little spots that feel like hidden treasures. These are the kinds of places locals love to keep under wraps, and we’re thrilled you got to enjoy them. We’re so happy you had fun and left with happy memories and that’s exactly the kind of special experience we hope to create!
We really enjoyed the walk and all the stories. We visited so many interesting places, and Ronald patiently waited while we were shopping hahaha ☺️ Good talks, good food, and good mood all day!
Thank you so much for your lovely words! 🌟 We are glad you enjoyed the walk and all the stories. It was a pleasure showing you and your friend around. Ronald had a great time chatting with both of you, and we are happy to know that the day was filled with good food, good talks, and good vibes. Hope to see you again on another adventure soon.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Walking Tour! The experience was well thought out from pacing to content and exceeded my expectations even as a Singaporean. The guide clearly planned the route with Singapore’s weather in mind, thoughtfully incorporating well-timed rest and refreshment stops so the participants stayed comfortable throughout the walk, which made a big difference in Singapore’s heat and humidity. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also engaging, sharing fascinating insights about the heritage, faith and culture of Kampong Glam, tailoring interesting facts based on the participants’ curiosity. Their passion for the neighbourhood truly came through and turned every stop into a conversation rather than just a sightseeing point. Whether you’re a visitor discovering Singapore for the first time or a local looking to see our city in a new light, this tour offers something valuable for everyone.
Thank you so much for the detailed review. It means a lot to hear that the walk spoke to you. We put a great deal of thought into pacing and comfort as Singapore’s humidity and warm weather, takes getting used. Thus we are really glad the rest stops and route planning made the experience enjoyable throughout. It’s wonderful to know that the stories, conversations, and little moments of heritage, faith, and culture connected with you. Kampong Glam’s DNA is so vibrant and sharing it in a way that feels engaging rather than rushed is something we care deeply about. Whether someone is visiting for the first time or rediscovering familiar streets, we always hope the walk offers something meaningful. Therefore, your words truly affirm that intention. Thank you again for joining us and for taking the time to share your experience. We hope to welcome you back on another walk soon.
The tour is chill, comfortable and brings you through a journey of artistic and heritage insights. If you’re looking for friendly vibes around Kampong Glam, Ronald (guide) definitely delivers and let you experience the hospitality of the area. We had a rest stop at Haji Lane where I was treated with a local snack and met some friendly people from BonBonMatcha and Faizal Caricatures! The matcha from shizuoka was delicious and better than some well known shops. Faizal was super friendly and great with his drawing! Highly recommend supporting local shops in the area! Istoria also collaborates with a few shops so we can get to enjoy some special discount while shopping for some unique things during the tour. There was sufficient rest stops and Ronald was very knowledgeable. The tour also includes snacks which makes the tour price very affordable, considering there was a Kunafa dessert at the end and the place is very aesthetic and air-conditioned. Highly recommend this tour!
Thank you for the wonderful sharing. It’s heartening that you felt the chill & comfortable vibes and enjoyed the blend of art, heritage, and hospitality around Kampong Glam. It has such a special charm, and we’re glad it came through for you. BonBonMatcha and Faizal Caricatures are truly gems in the area, we love the kindness and their friendship extended to us and our guests. Supporting local shops is a big part of what Istoria stands for, as collaborations will ensure a sustainable and vibrant eco-system. Thank you as well for appreciating the pacing, the rest stops, and the snacks along the way. We are indeed thrilled the Shizuoka matcha and the kunafa dessert hit the spot. Ending the tour with something sweet in a cosy, aesthetic space is one of our favourite touches. Your recommendation means the world. Hope to see you again on another journey soon!
Instructions to meet Guide, Ronald was straightforward and easy to find. We are a group of 2 Adults and 2 Children aged between 6-8. At first, there was a concern for my kids - not sure if they could understand. However, Ronald made the whole tour engaging for the kids and at the same time, delivering the information and history of the locations. The tour ended with a mini treasure hunt and a taste of a sweet dessert. Overall, my family enjoyed the short 2hrs tour and would recommend families with kids to experience it yourselves!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this lovely review. It was a joy having your family on the walk, and we're really glad to hear that the girls settled in quickly and found the experience engaging. We always design our family routes with young explorers in mind, keeping the stories lively, the pacing comfortable, and the activities hands on. We are delighted that the mini treasure hunt and sweet treat at the end added to the fun. And as shared with us by Ronald, the girls truly have an eye for photography. He hopes they enjoyed the little photography segment as much as he enjoyed watching them frame their shots with such curiosity, confidence & joy. Thank you again for joining us, and we’d love to welcome your family back on another adventure in the future.
I joined a walking tour around Kampong Glam by Istora Collective and it was such a refreshing way to experience a familiar area. The tour focused a lot on vibes, culture, and fun activities, which made it feel relaxed and engaging. The guide was friendly and energetic, and the pacing was great — plenty of time to explore, shop, take photos, and just soak in the atmosphere. The tour highlighted local stories, and creative spots. This tour is perfect if you’re looking for something fun, chill, and value for money! Would definitely recommend if you enjoy experiential tours over traditional sightseeing.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this glowing review. We’re happy that the walk through Kampong Glam felt refreshing, especially since it’s a familiar area to us. That’s exactly the kind of experience we hope to create. It means a lot to hear that the mix of vibes, culture, fun activities, and conversations connected with you. We’re also hearten that the pacing gave you space to explore, shop, take photos, and just soak in the atmosphere. Afterall, Istoria’s tagline is Snaps, Eats & Vibes and sharing local stories and the little details that make the neighbourhood come alive is always a joy.
Relaxed, easy-going vibes with Ronald who is both knowledgeable and friendly and loves sharing the history and culture of each place. The pace isn’t tiring, with plenty of rest stops — from matcha breaks to kunafa tastings — enjoying the little trends and moments along the way.
Thank you so much for joining the walk and for leaving such a thoughtful review. We are really glad that the relaxed pace and the rest stop moments added to your experience as they are part of our signature for our walking tours. Sharing the culture, hidden stories & vibes of each place is always a joy, and it means a lot to know it resonated with you. Hope to see you again on another adventure soon!
If you want to learn about the intricacies of Singapore’s social fabric, look for istoria. They are passionate and carefully curate their tours to be unique experiences, instead of just being a simple tour guide. The haji lane area is near many hotels, and has something for everyone - from very traditional shops/eats all the way to hipster vibes. It’s an every local favourite despite being a tourist area. Ronald has a knack for being really engaging and funny. Highly recommended!
Thank you for the wonderful review and we are glad that you had enjoyed the vibes of the tour in addition to the snacks that is signature of our tour. Ronald will be happy to know that he is engaging and funny. Hope to have you tour with us again and wishing you a wonderful festive season ahead
