The depth of his knowledge was fantastic and the preparation he put in for our time together was over and above. Add to that he was a genuinely nice bloke.

Roy was awesome! He took myself and two kids (11 & 15) on a great private tour around Singapore during our 8 hour layover after our 16 1/2 hr flight. He met us early in the morning at the airport and took us all over. We were really interested in the different foods at the hawker's centers, so we got to eat everything on our list and get a great tour of the major sites. Roy came with us in the airport to make sure we got on the right bus and made sure everything went incredibly smoothly. He was very friendly, spoke perfect English (he mentioned all the kids in Singapore learn English in school), and had lots of great information about the country and architecture. So glad we turned the layover into an awesome travel experience for the whole family!

This was the best layover I ever had in my entire life! We had a seven hour layover in Singapore and did this on whim. Our guide gave us an amazing tour -- we saw all the highlights -- and he did a great job of making it low stress and super enjoyable. Despite have a jam packed list (which we came up with) -- we never felt rushed and eve stopped for a leisurely cocktail to see the skyline. We also got to see things we never would have thought to see by just flipping through trip advisor. Highly, highly recommend. Inspired me to do this for any long layover we ever have...

Best personalized tour of Singapore. If you get matched with Liang, you’re in for real treat. He set up a detailed tour based on our interests and what we wanted to see and he delivered. He met us at our hotel ( you can change the meet up point if you’re staying in the city) and took us around from to every site we wanted to see and arranged all the tickets for any attractions ( you have to pay for certain attractions like a bum boat ride or entry to the Gardens by the Bay). The tour is totally customizable so you can do as little or as much as you want. We definitely would not have been able to get around the city and learn as much as we did and try as much food as we did with him. Thanks so much to our friend Liang.

Liang curated the perfect day in Singapore for us and we got to see everything on our list plus more. You can tell Liang is a proud Singaporean and takes pride in his work as tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about history, culture and food and even shared his own personal family history. It was a pleasure to spend the day with Liang and we can’t wait to come back to Singapore!
