I had a wonderful tour with Jolynn. She was informative and taught me a lot. I would highly reccomend the tour. It is a great way to spend the afternoon. The museum stop was so enlightening as well.
Jolynn turned peeking behind Singapore’s past into such an enlightening and tasty afternoon — packed with insights that flowed perfectly and left a lasting impression. Thank you — we’d love to welcome you back soon! 🇸🇬
