My reviews
-
Our tour guide, Jack, made a great recommendation to change the hour of the tour from noon to 5 pm due to the very hot, humid weather. Jack was a charming host, taking us to hawker stalls in the Maxwell market where we saw whole families enjoying dinner. We also saw neighborhoods that we would not have encountered on our own. The highlight of the tour was a bar b que street with a variety of choices. Lots of food. Lots of conversation. A worthwhile experience in Singapore.

Jack put together a great itinerary for us enabling us to see many of the sights of Singapore in a day. Jack is very knowledgable, has a good sense of humour and is extremely proud of his home city.
