I thoroughly enjoyed this particular half day in Singapore city. Having never been to the country before, my excellent guide Kyanta provided for me what was a very informative and indeed interactive heritage tour and in particular with regard to the 3 main broad cultures of Malay, Indian & Chinese. I was was very interested in how this city of over 5 million people functions so well as a modern city considering how diverse & multicultural it is. I asked more questions than usual and felt that the whole theme of the tour for me was how Singapore has shown the rest of the world just how people from so many backgrounds can indeed live and prosper together very successfully in the modern world of today. Thank you Kyanta

A very complete and practical self-tour of Little India, totally worth its money. Of course, it might be a bit of an inconvenience to keep listening to an audio-guide whereas you are walking through a neighborhood and may prefer opening your ears to the outside... But you cannot have it all. The automatized tour while you progress through the map is an excellent idea, and the itinerary is carefully crafted, without any mistake. Do not hesitate to pause it and do your own little explorations -which are, by the way, thoughtfully suggested. Kudos to the American narrator who managed to pronounce the temples' complicate names without stumbling noticeably on any syllable, by the way! ;)

Would do it again! Nothing beats going around town and having some food with a local! Great conversation with Bryan, who even left more recommendations for me once the tour was done. Honestly, you can’t get it wrong in Singapore anyway, it’s such a wonderful place!

It was the perfect thing to do on arrival to Singapore....saw all the sights, enjoyed chicken satay & our guide was excellent......his joviality was exceptional. We enjoyed it tremendously

Brilliant afternoon at the zoo. Guide made sure we were at the panda area at 3pm for feeding time, fantastic! Take an umbrella so you don’t get caught out by a storm!
