About Tour Guide Chua A.
Hi! My surname is Chua, please call me "Alvin". I’m a certified Tourist Guide in Singapore.
I’m physically active, love to travel, explore interesting places, eating, shopping and wellness exercise.
I’m born and live here. I have witnessed Singapore developed from a “Kampong” (village) to a beautiful Garden City. I will show and share the Singapore “Then and Now” along the journey.
Before being a tourist guide, I was a Sales Manager in FMCG industry for 20 years. Hence, I enjoy meeting people and I’m familiar with retail market and entertainment hot spots.
You are our VIP, and your happiness is our top priority. Your safety will also be ensured throughout the journey.

“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

"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.
