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.

What travelers think of this experience

Gordon Lawrence Apr 2025

Jimmy is a very knowledgeable guide and taught us a lot about Singapore. He kept us in touch about our wishes and logistics. He guided us through several areas with the relevant history and informed us about economics, education politics, history, planning, health care, and developments in Singapore. We felt very fortunate to have him as our guide. The private tour enabled us to ask many questions and help us understa.nd so much about Singapore. He even took several photos of us on the tour and sent them tto us before we got back to our hotel. He made sure we got a taxi to return to our hotel. Definitely one of the best guides we have had. Thank you Jimmy.

Mark has deep knowledge of Singapores history, is very friendly and engaging, and knows how to expertly customize an itinerary. We saw or visited dozens of famous sites and areas during the tour - plus did a crash course on using the MRT and navigating hawker markets. What a great introduction to the city. Highly recommended!

Roy was wonderful from the time of booking through the entire experience. He took the time to meet us at our hotel rather than the original meeting point. He took us on a cultural experience through Chinatown, to the bay and to the market for a great lunch. My husband and I missed the Jewel at the airport and Roy was super flexible with our day and took us there. He also escorted us to the Gardens by the Bay. If we could take him on all of our travels we would - thank you Roy !!!!

Franco Apr 2025

The experience was made by ST, who made us feel very welcome from the moment we met, until the end of our trip. We got to see the very best of Singapore through what we considered to be one of the best guides we’ve ever had

Charles Mar 2025

City unscripted and our guide Stefan is the only way to immerse yourself in Singapore. So much to see, beautiful skyline world class destinations.

Ben Mar 2025

Really enjoyed our time overall with Liang. He was very kind and thoughtful. He showed us everything we were looking for. Would recommend for anyone to go with him again!

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour?

No. Our experiences are unscripted and designed around you. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, your host will plan a personalized journey that feels natural, immersive, and unique.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll complete a short questionnaire about your interests and travel style. We’ll match you with the best host who will tailor the experience to you. You'll have the opportunity to chat with them before the experience and agree on a plan.

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?

Of course! Your experience is flexible, so you can explore at your own pace and make changes along the way.

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.
