My husband and I visited Singapore for the very first time in March. I reserved a 3.5 hour walking tour with a great guide named Stan. He corresponded with me prior to leaving the US in order to plan our trip. I felt comfortable asking him advice on other areas prior to arriving, and he was happy to provide the information.
He met us right on time the day of our tour at our hotel. Together we used the Grab app which I downloaded prior to arriving in Singapore. This is Singapore’s Uber. We took our first ride to the Gardens by the Bay. Stan was so knowledgeable about every aspect of this beautiful garden area. He matched our pace for walking through the gardens. He wanted his clients to be engaged.
After the Gardens, we took another Grab ride to Chinatown. Before walking through Chinatown, we went into a City Center area on the second floor where we saw a huge model of city of Singapore. It was so interesting to be able to see the entire city, by walking around this model. Highly recommend this stop. Next, we walked around this area until our time was up. He shared the history of the various temples, churches, and mosques. Stan is a very smart and enthusiastic guide! The perfect combination. We loved our time with him. We ended our day with a lunch. We enjoyed our time with Stan. He became our friend! Thank you, Stan.
