Singapore Chinatown visit with local food tasting in the afternoon, sightseeing and light shows in the evening

Comprehensive visit of Singapore Chinatown with tasting of authentic local food by experienced local guide Kelvin in the afternoon (no need to lunch before if your visit starts at 2PM, you will get enough), and sightseeing of Singapore River and light shows in the evening. Great combo if your time at Singapore is limited. Transfers well organized.

Two great tours

This was two different tours combined. The first part eight by day with Kelvin, was very good. We tasted about 10 different Chinese foods, walk through alleyways in Chinatown and also visited two very different Buddha temples, both of which were fantastic. Kelvin was a great guide and I recommend him. The second tour included the tub light shows. The first at Gardens by the bay was absolutely fantastic. The second at the waterfront was only good for those who had a front row seat. The rest of us had to put up with the little we saw. However it was well worthwhile just for the first show

Operator response

We’re glad you enjoyed the daytime experience exploring local food, temples, and hidden alleys—it’s a great way to discover Singapore’s rich culture. For the evening, we’re happy you loved the Gardens by the Bay show and found it worthwhile. We appreciate your comments on the second water and light show and seating, and we’ll use this to continue improving the Singapore guided night tour experience. Your insights are truly valuable and help future travelers enjoy highlights like Merlion Park and Clarke Quay even more. Omnicity Tours—top-rated Singapore Night Tours & River Cruise Experiences.

Chinatown Food Tasting Plus!

Lee was the perfect guide for us, and the Food Tasting was wonderful. An early stop for cold coconut milk was very refreshing. Lee later found a very comfortable setting for our main food stop where he provided an abundant spread of items that included a special chicken/rice dish, 2 varieties of absolutely delicious dumplings, plus much more. During our walk--around time, Lee clearly described historical aspects of Chinatown, and we also visited the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. Lee definitely made this an informative and deliciously filling experience!
