From the moment we booked the tour, Rachel liked after us like royalty! Great info about the tour and friendly reminders. The tour itself is an excellent mix of food (all of it delicious and accompanied with interesting stories about it) and culture and really brings a personal aspect to Singapore. We had one day in Singapore and this was a fantastic way to spend it! Definitely recommend- you’ll have fun with Rachel.
