I was born and raised in Singapore and have the privilege of having lived through a good part of the history of modern Singapore itself. It's been a remarkable journey to witness the changing landscape and the evolving characteristics of this nation. At the same time, I have always had a keen interest in the heritage, culture, and local stories of Singapore. Especially about the details and the connection to the events and transformation. I hope to provide an enriching experience for visitors. I am a licensed tour guide.

Tour description
Singapore isn’t just a city — it’s a vibrant mix of cultures, flavours, and stories waiting to be discovered. From iconic landmarks like Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay to hidden alleys filled with heritage and charm, every corner has something special to share. I’m a licensed tour guide born and raised here, and I have curated a personalised journey just for you. It is to showcase the unique Singapore tapestry of food, culture and history. It is the Singapore Chinatown Heritage Tour, where the stories of early immigrants and their contributions are woven together.
But if you have other preferences, please let me know, and I can plan to meet your preferences.
