Anna was a knowledgeable and engaging guide, well-versed in Singapore's history and culture. She tailored our tour based on our preferences, including visits to local markets, historic landmarks, and hidden gems. We truly had a fun, immersive experience and learned a lot about Singapore's rich heritage thanks to Anna's insightful commentary and personalized approach.
I booked this tour for our group of 6 based on the itinerary & reviews. Anna was GREAT! Kind, welcoming & knowledgeable! We saw & learned so much about Singapore it was wonderful. We visited all the ethnic quarters, The Botanic & Orchid Garden (UNESCO Site), Culture & Religious sites, Bumboat River Cruise & the Marina Bay area. We also visited & sampled local foods at a hawker market. Our tour was split into 1 full day and 1 evening which really gave us an opportunity to see quite a lot in a short period of time . We HIGHLY recommend Anna and this tour. You can customize it to your wishes as we did throughout our time. Our van & driver Marilyn was also wonderful. THANK YOU Anna for making our time in Singapore so special.
This review corresponds to two full-day private tours for two couples from the United States (California and New York) that took place on October 23 and 24, 2024. Anna Ong's guidance truly illuminated the city. Anna unfurled layers of history, culture, and hidden narratives, stitching each landmark into a tapestry of Singapore’s rich heritage. Her passion for storytelling imbued every stop with intrigue, at iconic sites as well as in secluded nooks only a local like her would know. Beyond her knowledge, Anna’s warmth and attentiveness moulded the experience into something truly remarkable. She calibrated the tour based on broad and specific interests, curating a journey that felt tailored, intimate relaxed and meaningful. Her engaging and refined sense of humour and vibrant personality infused each day with energy, making it not just informative but genuinely delightful. Anna's love for Singapore is infectious. For an insightful, spirited, and unforgettable journey through Singapore, Anna is a guide that will truly transform intentions into memorable moments and experiences.
Anna was an outstanding personal guide for our party of 5 adults and 2 children (7 and 9 years old). I am in my 80’s with some mobility issues so she arranged private transportation. Our two days and nights were filled with all the activities we could handle - Little India (festival time so very busy), China Town, the Muslim Quarter, Several Hawker centers for meals) light show at Marina Bay, evening cruise at sunset, church and the Cathedral, and much much more. She was knowledgeable, funny, considerate, and prompt. If you want a delightful time in Singapore, contact Anna. William McKay Indianapolis, In. USA
Anna met us at our hotel each day at 8 am, discussed the day's itinerary, and inquired if we wanted to do that. We saw many Singapore attractions and experienced Singaporean cuisine. My wife is a shopper, and we also visited and browsed many clothes and souvenir places at our request. We saw aspects of the old and new Singapore, a vibrant city and country. One highlight was the botanic gardens with the magnificent orchids. As our very personable guide, Anna explained many things so we understood the history and background of what we were seeing. Anna made the tour, our tour, and catered to our personal requirements of what we wanted to see. Anna was always very helpful to our requests. First Class guide and would recommend her to anyone looking for a very competent guide to Singapore. Thank you Anna
Anna was fantastic! So kind and accommodating and her knowledge was incredible. We learned so much about the different quarters and religions in Singapore and the food also was a wonderful part of the tour. The van was clean and comfortable and the driver was always right where we needed him. I highly recommend Anna as your tour guide!
We had an amazing day touring Singapore with our private tour guide, Anna. She met us at our hotel and visited with us to go over plans and to get to know us better to assure that our entire experience was customized for us. She also was in regular communication with us prior to our arrival in Singapore. We visited Ms y of the highlights of the city, toured the Gardens by the Bay, and sampled some local cuisine. Anna us knowledgeable and wanted to make sure that she made the most of our tour for us. We highly recommend this tour.
Father/Sons visit to Singapore. I had met Anna for a tour a few years back when my wife and I had a stopover in Singapore and knew that she would be my only choice for a new visit. You will find Anna to be knowledgeable, energetic, flexible and fun. She was able bring alive the culture and heritage of Singapore through, its people, food, monuments, heritage sights & new buildings/infrastructure (so much in the works…it’s is amazing). We visited the old Ethnic Quarters, Little India, Chinatown, Kampong Glam (includes some fantastic street art)…and of course a few Hawker Centers for local street foods. Anna also helped us with local customs visiting temples, interacting with people and even eating (use your spoon for your rice, not your chop sticks – ha ha). I have no hesitation recommending Anna to anyone for your visit to Singapore.
Anna was the most amazing guide! She made our experience of Singapore so up close and personal. She is a wonderful person and very accommodating with our requests. She is a vibrant personality, and we could not have asked for a better customized time in Singapore!
Anna was a great guide to our trip to Singapore. She tailored our itinerary so we got to see the things we were most interested in and stayed out of inclement weather. Anna provided really interesting history and culture information throughout our visit. We enjoyed getting to taste local food! Highly recommend if you are visiting - we got to see things we never would have found on our own.
