Hi there! I’m Stefan, your enthusiastic local host in the vibrant city of Singapore. With a heart full of curiosity and a creative spirit, I’m here to show you the best of what this incredible city has to offer. I adore the lush nature and wildlife here, from the curated wonders at the Zoo to the rustic charm of Pulau Ubin and captivating Intertidal Walks. As a lover of the performing arts, you’ll often find me at the Victoria Concert Hall, The Arts House, and the Esplanade, soaking in musical theatre, classical music, and opera. I’m passionate about heritage events and festivals like the SG Heritage Fest, uncovering the untold stories of our diverse communities. I know the ins and outs of Bugis, Chinatown, and more. Let’s explore the city’s most exciting performing arts spaces, events, and festivals together, and dive into stories that connect nature, culture, and heritage in the most delightful ways!

Stefan was a fantastic guide. We would highly recommend him as a Singapore tour guide! We took a food tour and enjoyed the Chinatown hawker center, a tea shop, and dessert cafe.

We took the Singapore Food Tour with Stefan and really enjoyed the experience. His local knowledge was very helpful. This was booked during Chinese New Year so many of the restaurants were closed but we made the best of it. We visited both Chinatown and Bugis. Both interesting locations and great food! Stefan did a fantastic job explaining the local nuance of what we ate. Overall, a very enjoyable day! Would highly recommend.

Stefan provided the most amazing tour of Singapore. I felt like a local! He took us to places I would have walked past otherwise, and explained their significance in easy to understand terms and English; his command of the language is remarkable. He is smart, not opinionated, factual and fun. I highly recommend spending 4-6 hours walking thru town with him. You’ll be glad you did.
