Tour Privado de História e Cultura (Caminhada)

A really informative and immersive tour full of history and stops to try the local food. Highly recommend.

had a fantastic experience on this solo guided walking tour of Singapore! The tour was both interesting and fun, offering fascinating insights into Singapore's history, culture, and hidden gems that I would never have discovered on my own. A special thank you to Pamela, who was an outstanding guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing stories and historical details in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. Her enthusiasm, sense of humor, and friendly personality made the experience even more enjoyable. It felt like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend who truly loves what she does.

It was an excellent tour. Gene - our tour guide - was very knowledgeable and provided us with very interesting insights to Singapore’s culture and history. I absolutely loved that we went through the fill mosaic of Singapore’s culture- not the regular tourist spots, but also how Singaporeans live their daily lives

First time in Singapore, so thought we’d get a guided tour to orientate ourselves. Our guide for the day, Kavin, made early contact and gave concise information about when and where we were to meet. Both he and we were punctual! After a brief online registration, we were good to go. Kavin was an excellent guide, with whom we quickly developed a good rapport. The tour itinerary we chose in advance, so we knew what to expect; our guide proved to be the perfect complement to that tour - we enjoyed his company, and hope he enjoyed ours (if maybe not some of Tony’s jokes!) During the rest of our stay we were able to travel with the background knowledge Kavin had provided, and said a quiet “Thank you” to him on several occasions. Would wholeheartedly recommend both Kavin and the company he represented so well. Rosemary & Tony Stacey (Worcestershire, UK)

Su Ling did an excellent job showing us Singapore and catering to our interests. She was warm & friendly and a lot Of fun . It was a perfect blend of learning Singapore’s history , cultural food experiences & shopping opportunities.

Kavin was a perfect guide teaching us the history and culture of this beautiful country. Was varied and so interesting.

We had a fantastic 4-hour “History & Culture” tour with Gee. It was very well organized and flowed naturally from colonial landmarks to modern life. We began at St Andrew’s Cathedral, then explored the National Gallery inside the beautifully repurposed former City Hall and Supreme Court (rooftop views, the linking bridge, and even a holding cell!). From Clarke Quay, the Singapore River Cruise brought the city’s story to life before we hopped off at Merlion Park. Highlights kept coming: a peek into historic Clifford Pier (now part of the Fullerton Bay Hotel), a public bus ride to Tanjong Pagar/Chinatown, and the Skybridge at Pinnacle@Duxton—an inspiring example of how the government supports amazing, design-forward social housing with sweeping city views. We then tasted Singapore’s flavors at Maxwell Food Center (classic chicken rice and fresh sugarcane with lemon) and finished with a serene traditional tea ceremony at Tea Chapter. Gee, our guide, was knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and his passion for Singapore’s heritage and daily life really shone. A great way to meet other interested people and a perfect, compact introduction that weaves history with contemporary Singapore—highly recommended.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *“And Then Came Richard…” We thought we signed up for a walking tour. What we got instead was a full-blown **time-traveling masterclass**, guided by none other than Richard Kan — a walking encyclopedia with charm, wit, and a knack for storytelling that made Singapore come alive. We began at **St Andrew’s Cathedral**, diving straight into the city’s colonial past — from Sir Stamford Raffles’ urban planning vision to the founding pillars of multicultural Singapore. Richard didn’t just share facts — he *painted* them into the walls. At the **National Gallery**, we found ourselves inside prison cells (yes, real ones), discovering the secrets of squat toilets and courtroom dramas, only to rise to the **City Hall rooftop** for a sweeping view of Marina Bay — where history, innovation, and reclaimed dreams stretch into the horizon. And then came the **Singapore River Cruise** — bumboats, trade routes, and the heartbeat of commerce since 1819. With every bend in the river, Richard connected the past with the present, turning buildings into living stories — from the old Parliament to the Fullerton Hotel and Raffles’ landing site. A short MRT ride (yes, he even made the subway feel magical) brought us to **Chinatown**, where gods from all faiths live within a stone’s throw. The “Street of Harmony” wasn’t just a term anymore — it became real, tangible, and profoundly moving. Dinner? A cultural delight. **Hainanese Chicken Rice** at Maxwell Food Centre, washed down with **Sugarcane Lemon**, all while learning about **HDB flats** and why hawker culture was UNESCO-worthy. By now, we were not tourists — we were insiders. And just when we thought it was over, **Tea Chapter** happened — a peaceful, fragrant end where we brewed Chinese tea the traditional way, unwinding everything we had absorbed. Oh, and yes — now we know how to **chope** a table with tissues and avoid looking too **kiasu** at the hawker centre. Richard, you didn’t just guide us. You inspired us. **10/10. Would follow you through history again.**

I had an amazing time on this tour! We visited St Andrew’s Cathedral, explored the National Gallery, and enjoyed stunning views from the City Hall rooftop. The Singapore River Cruise was a relaxing highlight, and the visit to Merlion Park was fascinating. The view from Pinnacle@Duxton's Skybridge was breathtaking, and the local meal at Maxwell Food Centre was delicious. To top it off, the Chinese Tea Experience at Tea Chapter was a peaceful cultural touch. A perfect mix of history, sights, and local experiences—highly recommend!

A knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide showing these iconic places around Singapore gave us an insight to this city we would never have known. The boat trip was fabulous too. Highly recommended.
