Taste Singaporean specialties

On Singapore food tours, you can feast on some of the city’s tastiest cuisine – and you’ve never experienced some of these flavors before. From otak-otak (a grilled fish cake wrapped in a banana leaf) to iconic Hainanese chicken rice, the most popular dishes range from piquant and peppery to light and mild. Join a food-loving local guide to seek out delicious dishes like an Indian-influenced flatbread, roti prata, served with fish or mutton curry, and end your food tours of Singapore on a sweet note – apam balik, a fluffy peanut and corn pancake, is always a treat!

The home of the hawker center

A quintessential element of the Singapore food scene is the hawker center, and any food tours of Singapore would be incomplete without a visit to one of these local institutions. These large food courts are packed with stalls serving full meals, snacks and drinks, and it’s where you’ll find all the local favorites. You won’t want to eat at a restaurant when you and your local guide can bargain for even better bites at a food hall housed in a heritage building. Join locals at a hawker center listening to live music while tucking into a steaming bowl of laksa on the ultimate Singapore food tours with us.

The capital of street food

With so many cultures that have made Singapore their home, the city’s food scene is a collection of the best recipes from around the world. Chinese, Malay, Indian and western cuisine have all made their mark on the food scene. But you don’t need a sit-down meal to experience it, because the best cuisine on food tours of Singapore is found right there on the city streets! Experience the street food culture to its fullest on authentic food tours of Singapore. With a local guide, you can get off the tourist trail and discover the ethnic enclaves that hide Singapore’s most exciting cuisine.

Latest reviews from our guests

Stan was an exceptional host and guide throughout our food tour in Singapore. From the moment we began, he brought not only warmth and kindness, but also an impressive depth of knowledge about the city’s diverse culinary landscape. His passion for Singaporean food, history, and culture was infectious, and he had a remarkable ability to weave storytelling into each stop—turning every dish into a window into the city’s heritage. What stood out most was how attentive and thoughtful he was with everyone in the group, making sure each person felt welcome and engaged. Whether explaining the origins of hawker traditions, pointing out subtle details in regional cooking styles, or offering local insights that only someone with deep roots could provide, Stan went above and beyond to make the experience both delicious and meaningful. It was more than just a food tour—it felt like walking the city with an old friend who wanted to share everything he loved about it. I would wholeheartedly recommend any experience led by Stan.

Even though I wasn’t the most cooperative (didn’t complete the questionnaire) I had a great time. The tour was catered to my likes and the history information was great.
