We met our ‘with locals’ tour guide at a local cafe just near the Marina Bay Sands hotel where we were staying. Upon meeting Eliza she abounded with enthusiasm about our next four hours together. Her demeanor was warm and inviting as if she was meeting old friends in for a holiday. She mapped out a route that included local historical sites, food hoker markets and museums. Her knowledge about her home country was astute as she answered all of our questions with the skill and precision of a rock climber scaling the face of a mountain. As we went all over the city to each site she was met with smiles and hospitality by each establishment, the sign of a great host well liked by her peers. She ushered us through Singapore’s underground transportation with ease, never skipping a beat and what an amazing system they have! At the end of our tour she was kind and gracious, having taken the time to walk us back to our hotel. She offered a hug upon our goodbyes and we gladly obliged for after just four hours with Eliza, she had enchanted us and we left feeling we would certainly see her again. We highly recommend booking her. You won’t be disappointed. PS bring a small hand towel, the humidity is a killer!
