Start Your Singapore Story, Your Way

Meet at Nanyang Old Coffee, Chinatown

Your Singapore, Your Way: A Full Day of Discovery

Start where locals do—at a heritage kopitiam with strong kopi and kaya toast. From here, explore the city, whether it’s a historic district, a quiet alley, or a favorite food spot.

Local flavors, street food, or a surprise?

A hawker classic, but your call!

Hainanese chicken rice, smoky Hokkien mee, or a hidden gem? Prefer something lighter? A café with pandan chiffon cake and kopi offers a relaxed start, perfect for easing into the city's rhythm.

Neighborhoods That Tell a Story

Historic enclaves or creative spaces—what’s calling you?

Stroll past shophouses, visit a quiet temple, or explore a historic storehouse. Telok Ayer and Ann Siang Hill reveal Singapore’s past, while Kampong Glam’s murals and boutiques add a modern touch.

Choose Between a Hawker Classic or Modern Bistro

Experience hawker fare or a refined take on local flavors.

Whether it’s a comforting bowl of laksa at a hawker center or refined nasi lemak at The Coconut Club, your host helps you pick the perfect meal to match your cravings.

Go Slow, Soak It In

A moment to pause and take in the city’s rhythm.

Watch a craftsman at work, listen to the hum of a wet market, or find a breezy riverside bench to sit and people-watch. Some of the best moments happen when you least expect them.

End Your Day Somewhere That Feels Right

A relaxed finale, wherever the day takes you.

A hidden speakeasy, a rooftop bar, or a lively hawker centre? However the day ends, it’s a chance to take in the city's rhythm, savor the flavors, and reflect on the places you've uncovered.

Knowledgeable guide!

Natalie Mar 2025

The tour company communicated well. Jimmy was a great guide! He showed me around Chinatown and provided a wealth of information about the area. He gave me pointers for how to spot the best hawker stations and his recommendations were delicious. For the second half of the tour we took the subway to Gardins by the Bay. Jimmy's guidance for taking the subway provided me with a great foundation for the rest of my trip.

Robert Mar 2025

All four of us were quite impressed with Jimmy. No matter what question we threw at him he understood the dynamics of everything that goes on in Singapore. He had us captivated from the very beginning. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him.

The guide took me to very interesting places throughout central Singapore. He was very knowledgeable and polite. The montage of photos taken during the tour, placed into a personalized video, was a great gift from my guide at the end! Jimmy was a great guide, highly recommended!!

Matjaž Sep 2025

We joined a private tour of Singapore with our 10-year-old son, led by the excellent guide Priscilla. She took us through Chinatown, Little India, and the vibrant Kampong Glam area. Priscilla was warm, flexible, and attentive, making the whole experience easy and enjoyable. She has a fantastic way of engaging with children, which made the tour especially memorable for our son. Even when a sudden rain shower interrupted part of the tour, she quickly adapted the program and kept everything interesting and fun. We truly enjoyed the experience and warmly recommend Priscilla to anyone visiting Singapore.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I adjust the plan on the day?

Absolutely. Your host can adjust the itinerary on the day based on your pace, energy, or any new ideas you have. It’s a flexible experience from start to finish.

What kind of stories and insights will my host share?

Each host has their own personal relationship with the city. You'll experience the city through their eyes—hearing stories about places they love, discovering hidden gems, and learning what makes their city special in a way that goes beyond a typical tour.

Will we enter attractions, or just explore from the outside?

That’s up to you! Some experiences include visits inside attractions, while others focus on the city's culture and atmosphere, which can be hard to truly experience without someone who knows the city inside out.

Are food and drinks included, or do I need to pay separately?

Unless stated otherwise, food and drinks are not included. Your host will take you to great spots where you can order what you like and pay as you go.

Do I need to pay for the host's food or drinks?

No, if you and your host decide to stop for food or drinks during your experience, you don’t need to cover your host’s expenses—your host will take care of their own.

Is this experience physically demanding?

We can tailor the experience to be as active or relaxed as you like—just let us know what suits you best!

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
