Top Singapore Day Trips

Take this tour. From the on time pick up, clean, new vehicles. Max was my driver to the Malaysian border then switched vehicle, driver Alex. Very safe driver. Great conversation. Once we reached Batu Caves, my guide Lionel was waiting. Great, patient guide, he went with me up those 272 steps, lol. At Petronas Towers Lionel waited while I went to the top. Very knowledgeable guide. The drive to Malaysia was about 4 hours, we stopped every two hours, thank you Alex. He had juice and plenty of water and pastries in the van. I really enjoyed this tour. I was a solo traveler. I felt safe with Max, Alex and Lionel. Thank you.

Our tour with Gee Soo yesterday was one of the best tours I've ever taken, and I wish I could give him more than five stars. He came to our hotel to meet us and asked us a few questions to get to know us and our experience of Singapore and our expectations for the day, then explained his plans and made sure all six of us were on board. We visited all of the places we'd requested (Little India and the Sri Veeramakaliamman (Kali) Temple, Gardens by the Bay, the National Orchard Garden, and the Merlion Statue); Gee added Marina Barrage, Raffles Hotel, and the City Gallery, plus stops for lunch (chicken rice) and coffee with kaya toast, all of which added to our appreciation of Singapore. Along the way, Gee told us about the sights we were seeing, listened to and answered our questions, talked about life in Singapore, pointed out photo opportunities, took LOTS of photos of the group and of individual couples, and made the day special over and over. I'd be remiss not to mention Bernie, our driver, who got us from place to place in comfort and safety (and added information when needed). A few hours after the tour, Gee sent us the photos he'd taken and a recap of the day. We all wanted to give him at least six stars, but the system won't let us! Thanks, Gee and Bernie!

This is a great private tour that allows you to customize your itinerary. You must pay an additional hourly fee for a licensed guide if you want someone to escort you and provide commentary at each location. This additional fee was well worth it as our guide Stanley took excellent care of us and very much expanded our knowledge of Singapore history and culture. There was good communication with the company and when I realized we would not have a guide they did provide one (at extra cost) at the last minute.

We were met as soon as we disembarked the ferry. We were taken to the terminal lounge whilst our paperwork was sorted. I found it easy to arrange the Arrival Visas online ahead of our trip. We were then met by Jackey and his driver. Both were lovely and went over and above to ensure we saw all we could. I contacted the company the day before the trip to request an earlier ferry booking and to tailor the trip and they were very prompt in reply and very accommodating. Jackey took us to various mosques, temples and museums and was always on hand to take pictures. The lunch was a great experience and was very tasty. The two hour massage was also very good after a very busy holiday. Once we were all done, we were driven back to the terminal lounge for coffee and cake while the paperwork was completed. We were then taken directly to our ferry and waved on board. It was a wonderful trip and provided a great insight into Batam. This turned out to be one of the best trips we had been on.
