Awesome tour with Kim! - This was an awesome tour! Kim was a great tour guide! She was very knowledgeable, took us on a great tour and got us over a dozen items to sample. Highly recommended.

A Delicious Journey Through Singapore’s Food Culture - It was absolutely worth it! The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun and easy to follow. Each dish told a story about Singapore’s rich culture, and the food was truly delicious, from local classics to hidden gems I wouldn’t have found on my own. It felt like a perfect mix of learning, eating, and exploring. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves food and wants to experience the real taste of Singapore.

Discova food and walking tour a must do. - Great experience on the walking tour and Hawker centre, it was good to go to a less touristy place and the dishes were all well chosen.

Amazing experience - I love Singaporean food with very impressive flavour of roaster chicken, chicken rice and ice cream.... Besides, walking through Singapore street is also a beautiful experience where you can see the colourful nightlife and the ancient houses. That is one of special experience in my life

Brilliant food tour! - Booked this the evening we arrived in Singapore. Couldn't recommend it more! Mr Choo was very knowledgeable about the history of Singapore and of course all the different food spots. We tried loads of different foods all the way around the tour, with Mr Choo tailoring the experience to what everyone wanted. Amazing food, wonderful guide, couldn't ask for more.

Great food tour! - We had a really enjoyable time. We did the morning session and there was plenty of food, interesting facts, and great company. Our guide Lin was really friendly, she took us to some great food spots and gave us an interesting lesson about Chinatown! We even re-visited some of the food spots ourselves later in our trip.

I had a great tour, and... - I had a great tour, and Kim was a great guide. The three hour trip flew by, with Kim giving nice background on the city and her local perspectives. There was plenty of food and a nice variety.

Try local food - You go to places you wouldn’t necessarily find as a tourist. Tried the local food. Learn about the local area. Friendly tour guide

Bad food, great atmosphere - I would give full marks to this tour for the atmosphere, history and the guide. Grace was very good, knew her stuff and kept us engaged. But the first thing about a FOODIE tour is the food.. it was terrible especially at the Hawker's centre we were taken to. The food there was greasy (tasted of reused oil), badly cooked and totally underwhelming. That is funny because, I have never had a disappointing meal in all my years of travelling to Singapore for work. It has some incredible food across cuisines and budgets. So it was disconcerting to experience bad food on a holiday and that too on a culinary tour. The one good thing we ate was the Chendol. My two bits to the organisers - You really must rethink where you take people to eat.
