Excellent tour of Singapore by Aaron
Martin_R, Mar 2024
Aaron was an excellent guide. He set a reasonable pace and gave us all the time we needed for whatever we wanted to do . He was extremely informative and very knowledgeable about the city, history and culture . We were quite impressed with the diversity of cultures within the city and the ability to see three different countries cultures in only three metro stops. He brought us to several great places to have snacks, both reasonably priced and extremely tasty. He didn't just take us to tourist areas but off the beaten path, for example to a very interesting hotel that looked like something out of Ghostbusters and other interesting sites we wouldn't have seen in a tourist guide. We highly recommend Aaron and this tour.

What a great way to see Singapore by having your own guide. We had a fun packed day with adventure, beautiful sights and fun. This had to be one of the best tours I have been on. Jay was the best. I feel very lucky I got just as my guide.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
We not only highly value your positive review but also want to express how much it means to Jay! We look forward to seeing you on another unforgettable tour with us!
Great guidance

Jon is super nice friendly guide! He showed me many different nice places in 1 day. Also he gave me many tips for my next days and great advices for food/restaurants! Great job Jon! Thanks!
A great tour - but remember to wear your best walking shoes!
Colleen_M, Dec 2022
Our guide John was super engaging and worked incredibly hard to give us his beloved Singapore in a single day. We worked hard with him - 27,000 steps worth! But we came away with great memories and a good understanding of both Singapore's cultural makeup and extraordinary evolution in just 200 years.
My teenage son proclaimed Monica "the best tour guide he's ever had!"
Donna H, Sep 2019
My normally jaded, usually non-communicative teenage son loved this tour. We had some flight problems and ended up getting in late on the day we had booked this for, but the company and the guide were very accommodating in working with us to find an adjusted schedule that worked. We got our heads filled with history, culture, food, art, music, religion, and all the highlights. We used public transportation, and did LOTS of walking. Monica tailored the tour to fit the divergent interests of me and my son, and made sure everyone was happy. In fact, the tour company sent out a questionnaire before assigning a guide to make sure they gave us a person who would best suit our style and interests. They hit it out of the park!
Maravilloso Guía

En utrolig hyggelig og kunnskapsrik guide tok oss rundt og viste oss høydepunkter i Singapore .. vi hadde aldri fått så mye ut av vårt korte opphold hvis vi ikke hadde tilbringt dagen vår med Jimmy☀️anbefales.
