I’ve lived in Singapore for 44 years
I speak English, Tamil and Malay
I am Tour Guide
I have a keen interest in and knowledge of various ethnic groups and their culture in Singapore like festivals, food, practices, religion and customs. So you can ask me about the ins and outs of various cultures. Hidden are the stories to be told while exploring the streets of many forefathers. I am a Chindian (mixed parentage of Chinese and Indian) and a Muslim by religion, so I can give a wonderful insight into everything local from heritage, history, cheap and branded shopping, hawker food to restaurants and places of worship. Visiting the local wet markets is one of my favourite pastimes. I enjoy looking for fresh ingredients and getting a good bargain. You could join me on a leisure walk in Fort Canning Park or the Gardens by the Bay. Flower Dome is my favourite as it has seasonal flower exhibitions throughout the year. Some of my favourite spots are Kampong Glam, Little India and Chinatown. There is just so much to love about Singapore!
Wahida was a wonderful guide. Lucky me! She was flexible with my interests and very knowledgeable of local cultures and history. It was a good balance of some touristy and not so typical tourist stops.

Great way to see the cultural heritage of the city. Wahida, my guide, was great. She walked us to the Arab street area and China Town, explaining all the history and context and literally took care of everything! Would highly recommend.

I met Wahida this morning to start my tour and I honestly think she is wonderful. She messaged me the night before to confirm our booking. She asked about my interests and what I would like to see. My tour was fun and very informative. I have learnt so much today about Singapore - it’s different cultures and history. I enjoyed myself so much I have booked more with her for tomorrow before I have to leave this beautiful interesting place. I will definitely come back to visit again and hope Wahida is around to show me more on my return.
