Sooo much nice food and a lovely host!!! - This was a fantastic tour around little China/India/Malaysia filled with amazing food in local/ street food stalls. You will not finish all the food!! (Which has nothing to do with the quality of the food and more with the amount.. The spring rolls in China were a highlight) Thank you too our tour guide Gerry for a great day.

Amazing Tour Guide - Heart of Singaporean Culture - Gerry was absolutely amazing. He was so warm, friendly, knowledgeable and above all, passionate about Singaporean culture and the small, local businesses that really are the heart of Singaporean cuisine. It was an amazing time. I felt well taken care of (plenty of food), plenty to drink, and even had comfortable transportation arranged.

Well organized and delicious! - A wonderful experience and a must do for food and culture lovers! Our guide Gerry had every perfectly organized. During our tour he showed us pictures of the past and present of the neighborhoods we visited. All the food we had was delicious and well presented. Gerry looked after us, cleaned the tables, arranged transportation and donated the leftovers, so nothing was wasted. Our small group, people from US, Europe and Australia connected easily, since we all shared great interest in traveling and culture.

An amazing foodie tour - The whole tour was fantastic, so well thought out to ensure the group experienced each of the cuisines. We tasted local food from stalls & cafes, some of which have earnt Michelin stars. Tecniques & recipes for hand made delicacies handed down.

Best food tour - I have done many food tours in many countries. Every time I go somewhere new the first thing I do is book a food tour. This one was absolutely fabulous. It took 6 hours and we saw plenty of sites between our food stops. We would eat, walk for 1.5hrs, eat, walk again and repeat. Most times I feel sick after food tours but this one was just pleasantly stuffed yet I ate as much, if not more than other tours. Unfortunately I had to leave early to catch my flight so Gerry moved the activities around to ensure I got the 3 food stops before paying for my Grab to the airport. It was the perfect way to experience Singapore in my 1 day layover and I would definitely do it again when I come back.

Hands down most thoughtful local tour I've taken - Gerry is a master class tour guide. Excellent balance of history, current cultural information, and of course: food. Everything from pick-up to departure is thought of with personal care. Truly one of the best I've experienced in my travels.
