We had a wonderful half day tour. We were picked up in time and loved that we had a guide and driver. The guide could then take us from the van and walk with us through a place. The van would pick us up somewhere else meaning we never had to double back and could keep exploring. The guide also customized our trip for us. I would definitely recommend this tour.

We booked the 8-hour private tour of Singapore to fill the time between getting off the cruise ship and our late flight out of Singapore. Our guide, Gee, was great and worked with us prior to our tour to set up a tour that met our interests. He was waiting for us after we cleared customs and immigration. Van and driver were great as well with plenty of room for our bags. Gee took lots of pictures for us and had them uploaded for us the within hours after our tour. Gee was a wonderful guide and person, and we appreciated his kindness and sincerity.

Absolutely one of the best day tours I’ve experienced. Su Ling provided a wonderful day in which she immersed me in the local cultures of Singapore. I elected to have a private journey away from the city center to learn about how Singaporeans go about their daily lives. Su provided exactly that. We went to the hawkers market for a great lunch, explored a local neighborhood complete with walking the grocery store aisles of a local supermarket. Walked along the beach; talked about the history; the diverse cultures; tried some great food and more. We went to community centers and participated in a health fair. She looked after me all day and always had a smile. Our driver was professional and the van was clean and comfy. After the tour was complete, she provided a great email in which she recapped our day plus gave in-depth recommendations for the rest of my stay in Singapore. Thank you Su !!!!

Our group of 12 had a great time and tour with Su Ling. We visited the Civic District, Merlion Park, Chinatown where we eat Chicken Rice, Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and Little India where we tried Mango Lassi. Following are comments from several members of our group: 1. Su was excellent. She accommodated changes to the schedule; was able to answer everyone's questions; even provided suggestions for our free day! 2. Su was very attentive, kept to our schedule even with the changes we requested. Nice, knowledgeable and would definitely recommend her to family and friends. She was personable and took us to or suggested places and eating venues that she personally liked. I would give her a grade of 11, based on a scale of 1-10! And our driver Bernard was great also! 3. Thanks to Su for guiding us on our tour in Singapore. She was efficient, informative and answered any and all questions we had. In addition, she tried to accommodate all of our extra requests. 4. Su was very accommodating to all members of the group. When we needed to sit down and have something to drink, Su went out of her way to find a place for us. Su is an extraordinary person & tour guide. 5. Su is an excellent knowledgeable tour guide. She has a wonderful personality and charm about her that allowed her to be very engaging with all of the members of the group, which in turn added to the overall great experience we had with her. As I'm a bit of a history buff, I greatly enjoyed and learned a lot about the history of Singapore, including Stamford Raffles.

Our tour guide Su Lin was brilliant. When she arrived to pick us up I explained that my wife had an ankle injury that made walking any distance very painful. Su Lin immediately borrowed a wheelchair from our hotel and insisted on pushing it throughout our tour. The highlight was a visit to the National Orchid Garden, a World Heritage site with the world's biggest collection of orchids. We also enjoyed visiting Chinatown, where we stopped to have some street food and Little India. Throughout the tour Su Lin gave us information and answered our numerous questions on the history, the politics and the economy of Singapore. The whole tour was tailored to what we wanted to do with some helpful suggestions from Su Lin.
