Opiniones de viajeros sobre nuestros tours y locales
"We loved our tour with Grayson! He was super kind and knowledgeable about the city and culture of Singapore and showed us some hidden gems and facts while moving from one tasting place to the next. The food he chose for us was amazing!! We were pleasantly surprised: the food he gave us was simple but it was so yummy, traditional and something we would have never tried on our own! We tried something from the Muslim Malay cuisine, the Indian one and the Chinese cuisine and Grayson explained every dish to us with the history behind. Every dish was spot on! We really recommend doing a tasting tour with Grayson! "
"We had a wonderful walking tour of Singapore with William as our guide. He was extremely informative and clearly very proud of his country, which made the experience even more enjoyable. His knowledge of Singapore’s history, culture, and local life was impressive, and he shared it in a very engaging and easy-to-understand way. William also took the time to show us how the public transport system works, explaining how to use it and helping us understand the best ways to get around the city. This was incredibly helpful for the rest of our stay. For anyone interested in learning about Singapore’s local food, culture, and history, I would highly recommend William as a guide. He made the tour both interesting and enjoyable, and we came away with a much better understanding of the city."
"Grayson was amazing! Friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging, he provided the history of the areas we visited and explanations about the delicious food we tried. It was a great taste of what locals eat and places that the guidebooks don’t mention and Grayson kindly wrote down a list of all the things we tried so I can look for them again. What a wonderful way to learn more about Singapore’s cultures and traditions and how food unites everyone."

"We’re visiting from Australia and booked a food tour in Singapore with WithLocals, and it was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Arthur, was fantastic. He was incredibly gracious with his time, extremely knowledgeable about everything related to Singapore, and made the entire experience relaxed and enjoyable. We never felt rushed at any point during the day. Arthur introduced us to so many delicious dishes and drinks along the way, giving us a real taste of Singapore’s food culture. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen and came with great stories and insights. If you’re visiting Singapore and thinking about a food tour, we highly recommend Arthur. It was an unforgettable experience!"
"My wife and I took this tour and I have to confess we wish we had of taken it on our first day. Royston has perfect english, a great sense of humour and is very knowledgeable. His mixture of traditional dishes at the hawker markets and his enthusiasm for Singapore's culture was contiguous. We learnt so much (including how to use the public transport) and we came away with two full's, full of local knowledge and with full tummies. I would have no hesitation recommending this tour and especially Royston as your tour guide. Cheers Royston. "
"Joisse gave us a fantastic introduction to Singapore through the country’s extraordinary food. She took very good care of us, factoring in a couple of food intolerances easily, and found us things to try that we’d not encountered before, which as a pair of foodies was quite something. She also followed up with answers to a couple of questions the next day. We’d strongly recommend her as a guide. "
"My wife and I signed up for the ten stop food tour with Stefan and the entire experience was one of the highlights of our visit in Singapore. Stefan was on time, very professional and had a true insider’s knowledge of the foods, how they are prepared, the neighborhoods we visited and even pointed out all sorts of things such as architectural features we would have otherwise missed. Even better, he had a great sense of humor and always had a smile. Our last stop was a tea shop where we got an amazing surprise. The shop’s owner had organized a lion dance to celebrate a business milestone and the Chinese new year. Even Stefan was amazed and naturally explained everything to us. What a great day. I would recommend Stefan and the ten stop food crawl to friends without reservation. Did I mention the food was awesome?"
"Communication with John was excellent from choosing him as our guide until the day we met up with him. He suggested we download the Grab app and set our card details up in advance . This enabled us to be dropped off right outside the meeting point. Later on during our tour he also showed us how to use the MRT. John’s knowledge of the 3 different areas he took us to made the tour so interesting and his food choices were excellent. Finally John was such a lovely person and clearly very proud of his country. "
"We booked a private Hawker Centre tour with Grayson and we were thrilled with the tour. Grayson checked in with us before the tour, sending information and meeting instructions that were easy to follow. He adapted the tour on the go for Chinese New Year closures and our personal requests. Grayson stood on the food queues for us so my Mum (being a lady of senior years) could sit and rest in between. We followed up some of the recommendations after the tour and they were great too. Thanks for a great experience Grayson"
"John was a great guide to work with. He was kind, accommodating and very knowledgeable. His knowledge and ability to convey that knowledge to was impeccable. We enjoyed our time with him immensely. We can’t recommend him. Plus he picked a variety of great snacks for us to try. "
