Singapore Layover Tour with a Local: 100% Personalized & Private

About this experience

Bust out of the airport (Bruce Willis style) and take to the colorful, eclectic streets of Singapore with one of our local Singapore hosts, seeing all you can in the limited time you have available in the city. We’ll worry about getting you back on time, so you just focus on all the things you’d like to see. Shun airport food for some delicious local treats at a nearby hawker center, soak up the hectic energy of Chinatown, get your cultural kicks in Little India or stretch out those legs in the Supertree Grove.
Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
