Amazing Food Hawker tour of Singapore

Charles_S, Apr 2026
This half day Food Hawker tour of Singapore was amazing! Linda, the tour guide, gave us a very in-depth educational presentation on Singapore’s history, culture, and food. Her assistant, Megan, had our tables prepared and the food ready for us at each of our stops, which made the tour more efficient. Both Linda and Megan were happy, friendly, helpful, and informative. We sampled a nice array of different foods at different food. Hawker markets, so it was an amazing tour that covered everything as advertised.

Best Food Tour

David_W, Apr 2026
This is the second food tour I have taken in Singapore and this tour is by far the best. Linda was a fantastic guide and gave us lots of history and info on Singapore throughout the tour. We are at Michelin hawker stalls as advertised and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this tour. Thank you too to Megan who was a step ahead of us to make sure table space was available and food was ready when we arrived at each stop.

Marcus was very good. The food was excellent and he also explained to us about the history of Singapore. He was also very good and caring towards my 74 year old father, and took the time at the end of the tour to direct us to the nearest underground station and which line we needed to take to us to get back to our hotel

Great way to experience the Hawker Markets for first timers!

Adam_G, Apr 2026
Great walking tour, with the right mix of local cultural knowledge and, more importantly, food. Tried around 10 dishes, either a whole item for your self or shared dishes between 2 or 3 people. Plenty of food to go around, plenty of variation from different styles and types, and the opportunity to buy more from other recommended spots en route if you're interested. William is a great guide!

So full!

Rali_A, Apr 2026
Marcus was great. Took us around and gave us many treats to eat. As well as a lot of information about Singapore

Maryl_C, Apr 2026
Great tour guide, well planned and very interesting. The food was very good. We enjoyed all the history that was included

Don’t miss this tour! Excellent food and other cultural information

BrendaW_B, Apr 2026
Exceptional insider tour of the Hawker food stands. Our guide, Shee Lin was knowledgeable about the history and culture of Singapore along with the top Hawker experiences.

10 out of 10!

Sean_H, Apr 2026
Absolutely an amazing adventure. Coming into a new city or town and not knowing anything about the culture or food history, this was a superb experience and adventure. You will NEVER go into these places as a tourist, so it forces you to eat and learn. The team was excellent and knowledgeable. 10 out of 10.

Michelin Star hawker tour

Raheleh_J, Apr 2026

Come hungry, leave stuffed.

Maren_S, Apr 2026
Traveling solo through Singapore and was looking for a way to try a bunch of food which is tough being solo and this was the answer. I had a blast meeting others and loved Swee Lin our guide! Highly recommend this tour and absolutely would take this again. Come hungry!

Good Hawkers Food Tour

Rex_H, Apr 2026
Our guide was full of information about the food, history and the area. The chicken rice was really good.

Eating our way across Singapore with Marcus

Lisa_L, Apr 2026
We had the best time with Marcus. Not only did he introduce us to the most amazing and Michelin star food and multiple hawker markets we also got a great orientation on Singapore and saw some very cool stuff. We were stuffed (in a good way) when we finished. I guarantee you won’t go hungry. We had just landed from a 17 hour flight but decided we didn’t want to miss out on his trip. We made the right decision! Thanks Marcus!!

William was fab 🤩

Sally_H, Mar 2026
Make sure you are hungry! A great tour, the guide William was really good, he is very knowledgeable about Singapore generally as well as the food. Great not to have to queue for food, thoroughly enjoyed the morning.

Fantastic tour and guide

Jonathan_B, Mar 2026
Brilliant tour guide and food. Efficient and friendly, a must do if it's your first time in Singapore! Thanks Big Jon!

Great food tour in Chinatown

Carolyn_R, Mar 2026
Great food tour and walk around Chinatown. Lots of stops and lots of food - tour very well planned and organised. This is a great introduction to the hawker centres in Singapore and we learnt a lot about the local foods.

Worth it!

michelle_s, Mar 2026
Very fun food tour experience! I enjoy taking a food tour when we arrive in a new city and this one did not change my mind on that. It was good food, informative and helpful on how to enjoy Hawker Michelin food on our own!.

Perfect introduction to Singapore hawker scene

Jacqueline_C, Mar 2026
This hawker food tour on my first day in Singapore was exactly what you want when visiting a city known for its hawker culture. We moved between some of the most famous hawker centers in older parts of Singapore, trying a great variety of dishes. One thing I really appreciated was how organized the tour was. The team had helpers lining up at some of the busiest, Michelin-recognized stalls ahead of time, so we didn’t have to spend our time waiting in long queues. There was some history shared along the way. While I would have enjoyed a bit more, this is a food tour at the end of the day—and they absolutely delivered on that. Honestly, I wouldn’t have been able to try many of these places on my own because I hate lines. If I return to Singapore, I would definitely do this tour again—and I don’t usually repeat tours unless I really enjoy them.

Fantastic experience!!!...

Marcus was a great and very informative tour guide! I got much more than the food tour I was expecting. Got a museum tour and really interesting information on the history of Singapore. All the food on the tour was also amazing!!

Daytime Walking Food Tour!

lemccarthy, Mar 2026
Walking food tour of hawker centers/markets in Chinatown. Guides did a great job offering different type of dishes. Also gave suggestions and advice for when visiting outside the tour.

Best food I ever taken!

Ben_P, Mar 2026
Sweet was a terrific tour guide! A lot of passion in her job. Each stop had tasty and unique food. Left full and happy!

Great Food, Better Vibes

Mr. Eric was an amazing host. He and his assistant were both personable and informative. The food was delicious, and our fellow tour-goers brought great vibes. Highly recommend, just bring an umbrella just in case.

Doug_G, Mar 2026
Swee was an excellent guide! She did an excellent job showing how food and Singapore history & culture are all interwoven. We had the right amount of food - not too much or little - and left with a solid knowledge of how to dine at other hawker centers around the city. I highly recommend taking this tour as soon as possible when arriving in Singapore!

A must do in Singapore!

Cindy_M, Mar 2026
I’ve been on several food tours and was one of the most organized, thoughtful and delicious experiences! Our guide Ronald was wonderful and full of interesting information. He had an assistant who was always ahead of us setting up a table which was ready for us when we arrived. A first!! The food was a nice variety and tasty.
