What Our Travelers Say

The walking tour of Chinatown was unforgettable. William deep knowledge of the area’s history and settlers made it feel like stepping back in time. The pacing was comfortable, the commentary engaging, and it felt like exploring with a friend. 


For anyone wanting to understand Singapore’s cultural heritage more deeply, this tour is a must. Highly recommend.

We booked the Singapore Street Food and Night Tour last minute, and it was perfect. The guide led us through hawker centers for dinner before taking us along the river through Boat Quay and Clarke Quay. 


In just a few hours we saw nightlife, tasted great dishes, and learned plenty about local life. A fun, well-paced experience worth every moment.

The Michelin & Local Hawker Food Tour was more than food, it was culture, history, and passion. Our guide’s enthusiasm gave us confidence to explore hawker centers on our own later. Highlights included dining at Hawker Chan’s restaurant and original stall. By the end we’d sampled so much and felt completely satisfied. A must-do for anyone visiting Singapore.

Monica Reynolds

Singapore

We joined three tours, the Chinatown walking tour, the Little India walking tour, and the Singapore City walking tour. All were excellent, but the city tour stood out. 


It gave us a big-picture view of the central district, telling the city’s story without too much walking. There were even spots to sit and rest. Informative, well-paced, and ideal for first-timers.

Monja T

Singapore

Joining the Private Tour and Heritage Tour was a delight. Over six hours we explored hawker stalls for chicken rice, biryani, dosa, and chai, while also seeing streets and temples we’d have walked past on our own. 


Bernard was friendly and attentive, creating a relaxed atmosphere. The blend of culture and cuisine made it one of the most enjoyable days of our trip.

Dominic Nielsen

This was the deeper look I hoped for. We slipped into Bunga Raya backstreets, admired older shophouses on Jonker, and took a calm riverside stroll. The guide adjusted the route for comfort, added a snack when energy dipped, and kept explanations clear. Practical tips for museums and lunch rounded it out. We finished near Jonker with coffee ideas and small gallery stops. Nice balance of depth and ease.

Daniel Walker

Malaysia

Strong introduction to Melaka’s old town. Dutch Square, St Paul’s, and A Famosa finally made sense thanks to clear storytelling and sensible pacing. We ended near Jonker with lunch ideas and museum tips. 


Tip-based and very fair. Bring water, comfortable shoes, and a little cash for snacks. Friendly group size and helpful orientation for day one planning and photos. Great value overall.

Rachel Brown

Melaka shines after dark. We moved through lively lanes to trusted stalls, tasted satay and grilled seafood, then cooled off with cendol. Our guide shared stories about Villa Sentosa and the river that made the area feel alive. 


Clear directions, safe crossings, ordering tips, and where locals go on weekends. A relaxed evening that balanced food, history, and easy charm. I’d bring friends next time.

Bianca Costa

Excellent tour, I would have not even found most of the amazing places and restaurants without the very knowledgeable and friendly guides. Highly recommended

Francesco

Great change of pace from the Bund. The guide stitched together The Great World, the old concert hall, and leafy boulevards into a clear picture of the district. No rushing, smart crossings, and useful tips for galleries and boutiques. I stayed in the area after and felt like a local for the afternoon.

Patrick O’Neill

United States

China

Exactly the food walk I hoped for. Clear tips on vinegar and ginger for soup dumplings, a surprise roujiamo stop, and a calm market stroll where we learned how locals shop. 


The guide balanced history with practical know-how and found seats when we needed a break. Ended with Bund views and a shortlist of dinner spots.

Marcus Doyle

China

Loved the mix of stories and street life. Our guide connected old concessions, the Former British Consulate, and the Bund’s banks without sounding like a lecture. We ducked into quieter lanes for shade and snapshots, then popped out to Nanjing Road for the buzz. Left with a mental map and confidence to explore on my own.

Hannah McLean

United Kingdom

China

Calm, beautiful walk under the plane trees. Fuxing Park morning dancers, Sinan Mansions villas, and Xintiandi’s shikumen all made sense with gentle, well-told stories. Our guide gave space for photos and pointed out small Art Deco details I’d miss. Ended near cafés for a relaxed lunch. Loved the tone.

Laura Jensen

Denmark

China

Great city intro. We met at Tiantong Road and followed the creek to the Bund while our guide explained how trade shaped the skyline. Postal Museum and Holy Trinity Church were unexpected highlights. The pace was steady, photo stops were frequent, and we finished near Yu Garden with clear tips on what to eat and where to wander next. Perfect first morning in Shanghai.

James Porter

United States

China

Professional and friendly from pickup to drop-off. We hit must-see spots at the right times, avoided long queues, and got context that made it all stick. The guide was proactive with shade breaks and had backup plans when a site was busy. Clear, honest recommendations for dinner and a show closed the loop.

David Brooks

United Kingdom

China

Thoughtful tastings and zero guesswork. We tried classics without standing in long lines, learned how to order like a local, and never felt rushed. The retro café added charm, and the Bund finale was a lovely digestif. Our guide kept the group small, checked dietary notes, and sent follow-up recommendations. Worth every step.

Sophie Lambert

France

China

Smart route and easygoing delivery. Suzhou Creek bridges, Bund viewpoints, and a few small churches I’d never notice alone. Our guide answered every question, from metro cards to local apps, and kept the group together without rushing. 


Finished with café suggestions and simple directions to Yu Garden Bazaar. Excellent value.

Connor Walsh

Ireland

China

Tailored day that felt effortless. We asked for a blend of Old Town alleys and Pudong views, plus a tea stop. Our guide sorted timing around crowds, grabbed taxis when needed, and handled tickets. Clear stories, great photos, and a lunch reservation we’d never land alone. Exactly the flexible overview we wanted.
