If you want to avoid the lines at the Michelin Guide stalls, I would recommend this tour. It will save a lot of time in navigating and waiting in line. Chinatown on Singapore is huge and it’s not so easy to navigate with the different centers and levels. Our guide, Reng, and his assistant made visiting multiple stalls easy and Reng gave us insights into the history of the hawkers.

This was a great tour! The food was amazing, and the tour guide was very nice and professional. We didn’t just taste delicious dishes—we also learned about the local history behind each one. It was a wonderful experience.

Marcus took us to some very interesting and tasty eateries. His knowledge and connection with the area and the food producers was clear to see. The tour not only filled our stomachs with excellent food but also provided an insight into various key buildings and monuments in Singapore too.

Lisa was a lot of fun as our tour guide. She shared fun personal stories w/the food that we ate and often pointed out other yummy local eats. She talked about the history of Chinatown and would answer any questions you had. She welcomed and encouraged questions!
