Jon started the tour by helping me fix my SIM card, which was greatly appreciated. Somehow, we still managed to see everything as planned. I very much appreciated the assistance with this matter, as I had no cell service whatsoever until Jon helped me sort it out. As for the tour itself, I enjoyed every minute. Jon was personable and informative, and the custom itinerary was perfect.

Adam was a great tour guide, he was very informative and had a great sense of humour! It was great to get a feel for Singapore and different areas, both touristy and local. It was interesting trying some local food and the ease of catching public transport. Although it was very hot, we had a great day! Thank you! Highly recommend!

Despite the pouring rain, our tour guide, Wieben/Jon, went above and beyond. First of all, we had booked a walking tour, and due to the rain, he arrived in a car with umbrellas. He was passionate and engaging and made the best of the weather we were given. He had a sense of humor and answers to all of our questions.
