the tour only consisted of my fren and me, and the guide, Snowy. very fun tour, didnt know kallang wave is linked all the way to the merlion. Snowy was very friendly and flexible of pitstops, she also kept taking photos for us. highly recommended if you are looking for something new to do in Singapore
This was the first Singapore walking tour I have been on, and if the others are any where close to this one, I would go for all of them. This was a delightful and throughly informative experience! I learnt loads about Joo chiat - from its inception, its food and even the darker sides to its history, which our incredible guide, Patrick, shared with us with great detail and enthusiasm. Patrick took us to many iconic spots, weaving in personal anecdotes (having grown up in the area) as well as historical facts about Joo chiat culture and Peranakan culture. We made our own popiah at the legendary kway guan huat, which was fun and delicious. Michael, the owner, was very gracious and made us feel at home in his homely restaurant. We tried different kuehs and epok epoks as we walked, ending the tour at Rumah kim choo. Overall, an afternoon more than well spent, our guide Patrick certainly made the entire experience memorable and he was not afraid to go the extra mile for us. The tour left me feeling appreciative of the blend of cultures we have here in Singapore, and inspired to find out more about places/things I might not know about Singapore's history.
Highly recommended this trip to anyone. Elena was my tour guide and is very knowledgeable about the Russian culture as she is a Russian herself migrated to Singapore. She shared alot of insights and history about Russia. The places that we went were interesting and food was very authentic. Really had a good time being able to travel around Singapore and understanding another country's culture.
The tour was surprisingly interesting, fun and enriching! The way Stanley and Jasmine presented the tales and stories were much more interesting and engaging than your usual history class! Through this tour, i get to know more about Singapore. And the places that they brought us, we didnt know about them until they brought us there. But one word of advice, it is really not for the faint heart! nevertheless it was really fun! no regrets utilizing my voucher on this tour! Thumbs up!
The guide was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and patient with our kids. We discovered so much of Singapore's way of life on the sea, learnt about sustainable fishing and how we can help promote local fish farmers! Our two young children loved the Sure Catch fishing experience. Highly recommended for everyone.
We booked a Ocean Grand Room with a panoramic view of the Marina Bay Sands, Marina Barage and Singapore Flyer. Day view and and especially the Night view was spectacular. Room comes with a Nespresso Machine that serves our coffee fix. Breakfast was great at Melt with local and international selection.
