Hello and thank you for taking time to read my profile. I am an experienced and licensed tourist guide with years of experience in the tour guiding industry. I love meeting people, guiding them to experience the life, culture and people of my country, Singapore. Having been 'born and bred' here, I have led tours to many business tourists around Singapore during their free time. They love it when I can give them a true-blue Singaporean's view of living in Singapore. I was inspired to become a private guide with ToursByLocals and hope to offer my true-blue Singaporean's view to leisure tourists too. Singapore is ever changing and growing, and yet our unique ethnic tapestry, values and traditions remain. I offer many unique, off-the-beaten-path tours and can also customize your very own personal walking tour. I hope to share my passion and knowledge of this great city with you in a fun and non-traditional way. Please take a look at my itineraries and see if there is anything that piques your interest. This is your tour and my goal is to send you home with a sense of awe and wonder after visiting this gorgeous and sunny island, Singapore. Licensed Singapore Tourism Board Tourist Guide I can arrange for you a car/mini van/mini bus/bus and a driver. I am not a driver.

Explore Chinatown, Little India and Kampong Glam. Hot favourite for anyone who loves culture!
Overview of your Singapore tour
Let's travel back in time and I will show you my old residence during my childhood days at Chinatown. Chinatown is particularly nostalgic for me because my grandmother used to patronize the Chinese medical hall that specialize in traditional remedies. At Kampong Glam and Little India, you will get a bit of a thrill when I show you to some places that aren't on the popular tourist routes. I will also share some 'bargaining skills' with you. You will have fun haggling with the shopkeepers. Art works are one of my favorite ways to discover a city's street scene . I will show you some incredible mural and make them come to life by sharing about the background to the work. I know many of the shopkeepers at these cultural areas. I will teach you some local dialect. You may even get a chance to chat with them using Singapore's local language. I will share with you about the importance of ingredients and dishes to the local people. Book this tour to gain lots of deep insight while having lots of fun.
