William was an excellent tour guide. Not only did he give us some of the history of Singapore, he led us to the museum where we able to see the future of Singapore. We dined on several dishes in the Hawker and he gave us complete background of each dish. It was more than enough to eat. Great tour. I would book with him again.

    Great Food Tour for the Whole Family!

    Joel_Y, May 2026
    The food tour was amazing! Kristine, our guide, knew a ton about the food and culture of Singapore and was able to answer all questions we threw at her. It was a great experience overall and we loved all the food; 10/10 would definitely recommend it to others

    Fun and delicious tour

    AMANDACLAIR_G, May 2026
    Kristine was friendly informative and funny and had so much insight into each of the foods that were provided. She tailored the food and information to my tastes and made my stopover in Singapore very pleasant and a good use of time on my way home from Europe. Would recommend to anyone visiting Singapore, especially if you haven’t yet visited the hawker centres or aren’t sure what to order from where

    Thank you for your review and for joining our tour on your stopover! We're glad that you enjoyed your personalized tour with Kristine and gained insights about Singapore's food and culture. We would love to host you again on another tour in the future!

    Amazing tour with local flavors by a local!

    Emma_K, May 2026
    We had an absolutely amazing experience with William on our food tour! Since it was a private tour we went to a very local ‘cafe’ and hawker center and was able to explain the country’s history, culture and way of life for Singaporeans. William would find us a seat by the busy food stalls and round up plates from a few vendors and then we’d talk about the cultural significance of them and different flavors. We tried so many dishes and learned how to order them on our own. William was so easy to talk to and ask questions. He even was able to alter our tour to make sure we made it to the Supertree nighttime show. He is clearly an expert guide and the flow of the evening went smoothly. Would 1000% recommend

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you for your kind and detailed review! We're glad that you had a great tour with William and enjoyed all the local food and history. We would love to host you again on another tour in the future!

    Worst food tour ever - Do No Do This

    Laura_L, May 2026
    My friend and I were wondering how to give ZERO stars - it was that bad. Our guide Raymond met us at the MRT and we walked a block a way to a food market. He sat us at a dirty table (didn't clean it) and then left to go get us food. He brought us ~7 dishes -- none of them good. He told us nothing about Singapore culture or food and that was it. We told him that the chicken and katzu was cold. His reply "if you want it warm, you have to come at 7am not at 5pm". The food was awful - no flavor. Who messes up Beef Chow Fun with old hard small beef and a mixture of spaghetti noodles in with the standard wide rice noodles. So we spent together $120 for about $30 of really bad food. Life is too short to eat bad food in Singapore!!! It was so bad that I looked up my booking on my Viator app thinking that maybe I booked the wrong tour. Nope, this one had tons of great reviews. Well, they didn't have Raymond Teo and sit at 1 dirty table to be served bland, cold food. Definitely the worst food tour that I have ever done. I did this tour a year ago and loved it. We walked through the area in Chinatown and learned so much. We stopped at 5 or 6 places including a Michelin rated Hawker stall. Not sure what when wrong here but DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!!!!

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate the time taken to describe your experience and we clearly missed the mark on this particular instance, especially given that you had a great experience last year. Our team will take this seriously while we continue to review and improve our food tours. As discussed, we are committed to make this right and look forward to giving you a better food tour experience when you are back in Singapore.

    Lots of food and Buddha’s

    John_W, May 2026
    First off our tour guide, Cathy, was a great guide. We had one initial food stop with lots of food…too much for us to eat….lol! She explained some of the history of the Chinatown and showed us a Buddha temple. Then we had coffee and a dessert. The rest of my comments are for the tour company owners. After getting off of a S/E Asia cruise the last thing we wanted to see was another Buddha or temple. If this is a street food tour, keep it at that and have several stops on different parts of the area with small bites along the way, and not a large potion at the beginning.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Dear John, thank you for your review and your honest feedback. We're glad that you enjoyed the insights and history by Cathy. Our goal is to provide a mix of culture and cuisine, but we understand how seeing another temple might feel right after a Southeast Asia tour. We appreciate your feedback on the pacing of the food and itinerary, and we are looking into how we can refine the tour to improve guests' experience.

    Highly recommend Kristine and her Singapore food tour

    Ronda_D, May 2026
    Kristine was a fabulous tour guide! The Singapore food tour was a delicious (and very filling) educational walk through Old Chinatown. We just loved all of the food and sights. Highly recommend

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Great experience!

    Lisa_W, Apr 2026
    This experience lives up to its title - very authentic and local! William was a fantastic guide. He took us to a local restaurant for chicken rice, a kopitiam (small hawker center), and a non-touristy hawker center. We tried several dishes that were tasty, interesting, and generous portions. William did a great job of explaining each dish, its history and significance. He also shared a great deal about Singapore and welcomed questions - all of which he answered very knowledgeably! All in all, a truly memorable experience!

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you for your kind review! We're glad that you enjoyed your tour with William and got to try all the delicious local food. Hope to see you again on future tours!

    Food tour

    Jeanne_P, Apr 2026
    Justin, our guide crafted this tour to us. He asked if we wanted traditional or touristy. We choose traditional, and he took us to places the locals eat. We went to a variety of places and had different types of food. We also learned a bit about the history and development of Singapore. He was also astute to our needs, slowing down if we needed to making sure we were comfortable.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you for your review! We're glad that you got to experience a customized tour with Justin and tried our local delights. We would love to host you again in the future!

    Good mix of food at two...

    Alana_M, Apr 2026
    Good mix of food at two different hawker halls with a bit of history in between while you digest the food from the first. Guide William was very knowledgeable and efficient.

    Foodie tour with Amanda (Mandy)

    Kim_C, Mar 2026
    We enjoyed every minute. Amanda came to pick us up at our Hotel and then ventured to Chinatown. We went to a market and she ordered several local dishes and drinks which were all wonderful and tasty. She explained each dish to us. We then went to a Shop House. She was full of history and fun. She then walked with us to One Fullerton where our next excursion was starting. Wonderful tour and Amanda was a great guide. Highly recommend.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you for your review! Amanda would be glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour with her and had a good experience at a local market trying various dishes. We would be glad to see you again on a future tour with us!

    Singapore Delights

    Wonderful, Kristin was knowledgeable and passionate about her job. Food choices were excellent and introduced us to pure Singaporean cuisine. We could not have done this by ourselves. Thank you.

    Great way to experience Singpore's food and culture!

    Sandra_V, Mar 2026
    We had a great tour with our guide, Kristine! I did the tour with my sister, and we were the only two on the tour, so it was really like a private tour which was awesome. Our tour was scheduled for 1:00, so I was a little worried about having to do a lot of walking in the Singapore heat, but the places we went were all close together, and we were able to sit and relax with a drink while Kristine got our food. It was great! She was a great storyteller, and gave us a lot of information about life in Singapore and the history and food culture of the area. The food was great, and we tried things I never would have ordered on my own. My only regret about the tour is that we had scheduled another thing right afterwards, and I wish we had left ourselves some free time after the tour to do some shopping in Chinatown! :-)

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you for your lovely review! Kristine will be glad to hear your kind words and that you had a great time on the tour. We would love to welcome you again on a future tour :)

    Thank you so much for your kind words — we’re thrilled Kristine made your tour enjoyable and helpful. I’ll be sure to pass this on to her; the team will be delighted to hear it.

    Very nice guy, but...

    Nobby, Mar 2026
    It's billed as a food tour but actually took place sat around a table in a food hall whilst a regular flow of food was brought to us, we never knew whether it was all from one supplier, or several. We were continuously eating and were soon so full we had to refuse any more dishes. Our guide was a very nice man but we couldn't understand what he was saying and he couldn't understand us, so we largely sat in silence as food was presented to us. All in all, a very expensive and not very illuminating experience, although we were introduced to the Durian, and shown some interesting street art and a Pagoda. The total length of the food 'tour' was maybe 200 metres.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Thank you for your feedback — I’m very sorry we missed the mark. Our tours are supported in English and guides are expected to provide clear English commentary. Could you DM or message the platform with your booking reference and we’ll investigate accordingly

    Great tour

    Victoria_P, Mar 2026
