Hi there! I’m Stefan, your enthusiastic local host in the vibrant city of Singapore. With a heart full of curiosity and a creative spirit, I’m here to show you the best of what this incredible city has to offer. I adore the lush nature and wildlife here, from the curated wonders at the Zoo to the rustic charm of Pulau Ubin and captivating Intertidal Walks. As a lover of the performing arts, you’ll often find me at the Victoria Concert Hall, The Arts House, and the Esplanade, soaking in musical theatre, classical music, and opera. I’m passionate about heritage events and festivals like the SG Heritage Fest, uncovering the untold stories of our diverse communities. I know the ins and outs of Bugis, Chinatown, and more. Let’s explore the city’s most exciting performing arts spaces, events, and festivals together, and dive into stories that connect nature, culture, and heritage in the most delightful ways!

My reviews

We did the 3 hour walking tour with Stefan yesterday and even though we had some Limitations due to the area closures because of the Grand Prix, he was able to give us a comprehensive tour of Chinatown explaining a lot of the early history of the island. We also learnt about the future expansion plans for Singapore. He also took us into a hawker center for lunch where he recommended several luncheon options. Stefan has lived in Singapore his whole life, has an excellent knowledge of the history and cultural events in the island and we would recommend him as a tour guide.
