Understanding the Old to Appreciate the New Singapore - Rachel was an awesome tour guide who took us around Chinatown and showed us all the hidden gems you wouldn’t otherwise discover by yourself as a tourist. We learned a lot about the history of Singapore and how it came to be what it is now in modern day and how the city-state is maintained and regulated to guarantee its future! This tour is a perfect blend of old and new Singapore and I really appreciated Rachel’s knowledge and her patience to take all of our pictures! Definitely would recommend this tour!

Good tour and education. - I had an excellent private tour with Rachel. We explored Chinese and Indian neighborhoods with deep dive into local religious temples. We also discussed the government's approach to city planning and how it has shaped the modern city. A good way to understand the city's character.
