"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new sights, but in looking with new eyes" by Marcel Proust has increasingly shaped my travel approach in recent years. When I recall my most memorable overseas trip experiences, the highlight is often not a mainstream tourist attraction, but a serendipitous encounter off the beaten path. I hope to guide you to your serendipitous encounter. I love to travel ... my style is to spend more time with authentic local neighbourhoods visiting local markets, and shops, speaking to locals (language permitting), blending in (try!) and engaging in the daily activities of the locals. This also shaped my guiding approach; I seek to unearth local stories, unwritten practices, nuances of community dynamics, unique botanical features etc. (not regurgitate info from Google search results). I am equally comfortable discussing policy & governance comparisons, explaining municipal matters, sharing cultural nuances, tracing historical developments or pointing out minutiae like a tile design, a leaf's drip tip, an orchid's sepal. In my free time, I enjoy exploring, learning and sharing insights about this little island of Singapore. I attended UIUC in Illinois, USA for 3 years, worked for a German MNC for 5 years helped coordinate a 100 pax orphanage project in Indonesia for 12 years, so I am passionate with learning and sharing about different cultures. I am an adult educator at a polytechnic in the evening and enjoy guiding during my free time in the mornings. I have been a heritage guide since 2016 and have developed over 15 unique walking tours and clocked over 100 tours for schools, churches, seniors and other social groups. I am also a tourist guide licensed by STB (Singapore Tourism Board).

Richard K is a Tourist & Nature Guide licensed by Singapore Tourism Board. He is a nature lover and also a wildlife photographer. He grew up in a rural area known at a kampong at the North Eastern part of Singapore. His family practised living off the land and off the sea where he acquired the practical knowledge on the “way of nature”. He enjoys living a healthy and adventurous lifestyle and love meeting people and sharing personal experiences. When he became a senior citizen, he could not retire as he was still very active. So he took up the Tourist Guide Course, partly to know more about Singapore and partly a strong passion to share Singapore success story to visitors and locals.

“Excellent hunt in Singapore ”
Chua picked us up at the hotel and first we went to a hawker center in chinatown for a delicious breakfast. At the next steps we tried typical Indian and Malayan food. We learned a lot of the different cultures in Singapore and the urban planning of Singapore. That was really interesting. Also we visited some malls away from the tourist spots. Chua was very kind and careful. We can highly recommend him for a guided tour in Singapore. Thanks for a great day.

Hi Marcus and Matina, Andy and Beatie, It is my pleasure and also greatly appreciate the 5star excellent review. I'm delighted to know that you like the "Nanyang" style coffee and some local food. We also talked and got in touch with different type of shop, public housing and people lifestyle. This is wonderful to have you all together for the day tour. Have a great holiday! Thanks & regards, Chua

“Good driver but misleading experience ”
We booked what was advertised on GoWithGuide as a “private tour” of Singapore, expecting cultural insights, historical commentary, and meaningful guidance. Instead, what we got was a car with a driver, polite and punctual, but nothing resembling a guided tour. The listing was under “Singapore Private Tour” and promised “memorable guided experiences,” “extensive knowledge of hidden gems,” and “personalized journeys.” Nowhere was it made explicitly clear — especially not on mobile — that this would be driver only. As a customer unfamiliar with local licensing laws, there was no reason to assume that “tour” didn’t include a guide. I even messaged the supplier in advance expressing interest in a culture/history-focused tour. At no point was this clarified. A clear opportunity to manage expectations was missed. To make matters worse, I was later charged for an extra hour — despite asking the driver during the tour how long we had him for, and being told “there is no limit.” No mention was made that the 5-hour booking had a cutoff time or that additional charges would apply. GoWithGuide’s support responses felt robotic and dismissive, more focused on shielding themselves than addressing real customer dissatisfaction. They have since admitted the listing was unclear and updated it — but took no ownership for the experience mismatch. The supplier showed little interest in resolution and was primarily focused on collecting the extra fee. Their communication placed blame on the platform and offered no accountability or goodwill. Bottom line: This was a transportation service marketed as a tour. If you’re expecting a real guided experience, ask very specific questions — because they won’t clarify until it’s too late.

Dear Ryan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your experience with our service on April 21, 2025. We genuinely appreciate all customer feedback as it helps us improve. We're sorry to hear that there was a misalignment between your expectations and the service provided. While we're glad to hear that you found Danny to be "patient, reliable and flexible" with "good driving," we understand your disappointment regarding the nature of the service. To clarify a few points: Service Description: Our service is clearly described as a "Chauffeur Tour (Driver Only)" on our listing. The term "chauffeur" specifically indicates a professional driver service without tour guide commentary. We do understand that industry terminology can sometimes be confusing for customers, and we've worked with GoWithGuide to make this distinction even clearer in our listings. Time Limits: The service you booked was explicitly for 5 hours starting from pickup time, as stated in our booking confirmation. When our driver mentioned having no other bookings afterward, this was to indicate flexibility in continuing the service if needed, not that additional time would be provided at no cost. Additional Hour: The timestamps in our system show that the service extended one hour beyond the booked 5-hour period (as indicated by the "Start 1043 - 1624 End" message in our communication), which is why an additional charge was applied according to our standard rates. We value transparency and clear communication with all our customers. Based on your feedback, we're taking additional steps to ensure future customers have crystal-clear expectations about the nature of our services: Working with booking platforms to enhance service descriptions Implementing a pre-tour confirmation message that outlines exactly what is and isn't included Ensuring our drivers clearly explain time limits and additional charges at the start of service

“Familiar yet new”
Caleb made the trail interesting and enriching as he shares from his knowledge and experience. He enhanced the whole experience by using old archival shots of places visited and shared many interesting facts and stories about places that are familiar but filled with rich history that I was not aware of. It was an enlightening journey and I enjoyed it.
