Richard K.
Singapore
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.
Monica T.
Singapore
I am an experienced and licensed tourist guide with years of experience in the tour guiding industry. I love meeting people, guiding them to experience the life, culture and people of my country, Singapore. Having been 'born and bred' here, I have led tours to many business tourists around Singapore during their free time. They love it when I can give them a true-blue Singaporean's view of living in Singapore. Singapore is ever changing and growing, and yet our unique ethnic tapestry, values and traditions remain. I offer many unique, off-the-beaten-path tours and can also customize your very own personal walking tour. I hope to share my passion and knowledge of this great city with you in a fun and non-traditional way. My goal is to send you home with a sense of awe and wonder after visiting this gorgeous and sunny island, Singapore.

Lena K.
Singapore
My passion in guiding comes from my love in traveling over 30 cities and living in 7 cities in Europe and Asia, meeting different people. I am both trained by professional Singapore Tourism Board and heritage associations. I believe one the best ways to know something intimate about a place is to be with a local. I promise to give you a 5 -senses tour experience of taste, smell, touch, sight and hearing and share secrets and folktales that only a native knows. And I am indeed a mini Singapore as my family is of Malay- Chinese-Indian and European heritage so I live and breathe all 4 races.

Hello I am Keith, a Singaporean born and bred. I am a part time engineer, full time traveller. As a traveller, I like to explore places where locals go to and watch people in their everyday activities. Through conversations with the locals, I get to know of their culture, customs and way of life. I believe travel should be about people, not just places. Looking for a local who can show you around Singapore like a friend would? Look no further. I enjoy meeting people and introducing Singapore to foreign friends, especially the non-touristy local places. I am sincere, flexible when it comes to the itinerary, and enjoys the exchange of culture with my guests. Singapore offers a fascinating blend of Western modernity and Asian culture. Through a series of thoughtfully designed tours on culture, nature, history, architecture and food, join me to explore some of the best (secret) non-touristy local experiences in Singapore. If you have other places of interest in mind, I can customise the tour to include them. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Singapore Tour Reviews
“Excellent trip with Lim”
I had a great time with Lim. Even though I asked for a customised trip, he still preplanned and visited a lot of places more than what I expected. Great knowledge of the history and the culture of the city. I would highly recommend having Lim with you if you visit Singapore.
“Personalized food and culture-focused day tour”
Fatimah was AMAZING! She easily understood the objectives of our team and helped us plan a productive and fun day. She displayed great knowledge of the Singapore culture, showed us some great sights, helped us arrange dinner reservations and basically made our day seamless, low-stress and easy. Fatimah went above my expectations and helped us arrange a car for the day and it was stocked with cold water too. If we ever come back to Singapore and hire another tour guide, I wouldn't hesitate to look up Fatimah again. 5-Star rating easily.
