Private Customized Walking Tour

The journey, in full

We can combine some of the must see’s like the Singapore River and riding the Singapore Flyer with something a little more off the beaten track to ensure that you see Singapore for what it really is; a melting pot of cultures and flavors. It is a city that has seen unprecedented growth, a city that competes on the global playing field despite its tiny size. It has been beautifully designed with the intention not just to be ‘green’, but to be a City in a Garden. It is a city where efficiency, style, gastronomies, and cultures meet like in no other. If you are a foodie but do not want to do our full food tour we can combine foodie elements into your Customised Private Tour, ensuring that you still get a wonderful mouthwatering taste of Singapore. If you would like to pick up some souvenirs en route we can show you our favorite markets.
