Extremely Disappointing, Terrible Experience. Use another provider – Avoid Headout Singapore.

Extremely Disappointing, Terrible Experience. Use another provider – Avoid Headout Singapore. They took my money for a service my family (2 adults and 3 children) couldn’t even enjoy because an incompetent driver dropped us at the wrong location. We called Headout and City Tours multiple times "No Answer and Text No Reply" that we were only a few moments away, yet we still ended up missing it. Yes, we arrived 5 minutes late to the correct location spot, the customer service team and the driver flat-out refused us from joining even if I took a taxi to the next stop just so we could continue the Singapore Christmas Lights-Up Tour. The following day via email Headout customer service team replyed back and forth and flat-out refused. No re-joining, no rescheduling, no refund, not even a discount. Their only “solution” was for us to pay the full amount all over again. Make sure you read their T&Cs closely and double check the location with the driver check every meeting drop off spot.

The hole experience was lovely even if the seat were wet. A little disappointed that we didn’t see the trees at Marina Bay light up. However we had a great time

This was the first time we took the bus top ride. Fantastic experience - The weather was fantastic, the ride through the christmas light up street was awesome! The tour guide was very friendly. We were a bit worried if would rain, but luckily it did not.
Tour fine, display disappointing

Have just done this tour. Tour was fine. The display of lights was disappointing. Have seen displays in previous years & there were a lot more displays.
