I am Registered Tour Guide
Hello! I'm Joanne, your go-to guide in the heart of Singapore. Although many see our nation as a tiny red dot, I'm always in awe of its vastness in culture, history, and innovation. There's a beautiful balance here – we're ever-changing yet rooted in tradition. Food is my passion, and I can't wait to take you on a culinary journey through our city's diverse flavors, all while sharing my latest finds on Instagram. A supermarket connoisseur? You bet! From Chinatown's vibrant streets to Kampong Gelam's historic lanes and Bukit Timah's scenic routes, I've got insider tips just for you. Whether you're after a comprehensive city tour or a delicious escapade, let's explore Singapore's treasures together!
This was a great personal tour. Our guide (Joanne) was extremely knowledgeable on the history and culture of Singapore. It was like walking around Singapore with a friend. Her recommendations for other things to do have also been spot-on. I'd recommend this personal tour to everyone.

A lovely tour of Chinatown with both the market food stalls and a Chinese tea house. I loved that she picked me up at the hotel.

I want to thank Joanne for an awesome day, she is wonderful and kind, we highly recommend Joanne! She went above and beyond by acknowledging my friend's birthday with some lovely special buns filled with jam. The tour was awesome too we saw all the great spots! Thank you again and Aloha!
