What you’ll do

You'll spend a few hours with one of our Singapore hosts perusing some of the city's most famous food courts - and by perusing, we really mean eating your way around.

Singapore is a city that runs on hawker food, so it's only right you taste the delicious dishes that are the staples of the city's food culture while you're in town.

You'll learn all about the city's culinary heritage and the Indian, Chinese and Malay influences that come together in a delicious fusion of smells, tastes, and colors at these local hawker centers.

A practical approach is key to learning, so get ready to do a lot of eating! You'll visit a couple of the city's oldest and most authentic hawker centers like Maxwell Road, Old Airport Road, and Lau Pa Sat, tasting delicious dishes like laksa, satay, Hainanese chicken, and black pepper crab.

Beyond treating your taste buds and tummy, we're all about 'behind the scenes' here, so your host will also take you to a local wet market, where you can see locals haggling over fresh produce and rare herbs. Prepare for a serious food coma.

    Fairuz was a friendly, fun and knowledgeable guide and the places that he chose for us to eat at were all great with a good variety. We also had LOADS to eat, so we're very happy!

    Robyn arrived early at our hotel and taught us how to navigate the bus and subway system. We had a little bit of cultural and history discussion.s We had a lot of local hawker foods at 2 food halls. It was delicious, and I am a foodie. We even went to a market to get spices to make good at home. She even got us back to our hotel at the end of the tour. I would definitely recommend Robyn as a Singapore guide.

    I am a curious person with lots of questions about culture and society when I’m visiting a new country. Claire did a great job explaining things about Singaporean society, culture, customs, traditions, and history, in addition to showing me food stalls, giving me a sampling of all the amazing things to eat in Singapore, and more.
