      Unforgettable Tour with Chan – The Highlight of My Singapore Trip!
      Wow, what an incredible tour! Chan's infectious enthusiasm and boundless energy made this experience truly exceptional. Even after 3.5 hours of walking and talking, he was still going strong – as if the tour had just begun! What really stood out was his sense of humor, seamlessly woven into his storytelling. He made history come alive, turning facts into engaging, entertaining narratives. His deep insights into the people who built Singapore from the ground up were absolutely fascinating, giving us a whole new perspective on the city. This was, without a doubt, one of the best city tours I’ve ever experienced! A massive thank you to Chan – this was the absolute highlight of my trip to Singapore. If you get the chance to take a tour with him, do it! You won’t regret it. 🌟 With Love Anna

      Best tour company for seeing many sides of Singapore!
      We used Let’s Go for four tours in Singapore. We did an all day private car tour, Chinatown street food, local market with cooking class and Kelong boat tour. Everything was perfectly organized ahead of time by Dana in their operations office. All of our guides- Vidhya, Robin and Marion were fantastic and really enhanced our experience! All of the included transportation was comfortable and even luxurious. We highly recommend this tour company to give you a fabulous experience of Singapore!

      Nice way to experience three cultures in Singapore’s historical areas.
      We enjoyed our afternoon on this tour and experienced the sights and sounds of these different cultures within the historical area of Singapore. Our guide, Colin, led a well-paced and informative tour with lots of variety. Well done!

      I must do on your first or second day in Singapore
      I took this walking tour while I was in Singapore. I found it extremely informative especially part of the tour introduces you and teaches you how to use the MTR/LTR train system. I found this most invaluable for the rest of my trip. Cheyenne is awesome

      For fun culture and history 🇸🇬
      Our animated tour guide gave us a fantastic view of the city’s history and a sneak peak of life in Singapore. The 9am tour was perfect heat wise with no rain, but make sure you bring a good pair of walking shoes as it’s 3 and a bit hours! (Also there are not stops for shopping but we did that afterwards) Thanks Chan for helping me and my parents feel super welcome on our first trip to Singapore - keep up the great work 🌟🌟

      Singapore Melting Pot
      Corliss did a fantastic job of showing us streets of Singapore we would have most likely not seen on our own. We even enjoyed having a local show us the tricks of the exceedingly nice metro system which we used to transfer from neighborhood to neighborhood. She gave us a the history of the three neighborhoods and always had answers for our questions. Highly recommend.

      A Great Walking Tour
      My wife and I joined 4 others on this walking tour. A small group helped to personalise things and added to the friendly atmosphere. Jackey, our guide was attentive, chatty and friendly. We followed a schedule visiting Kampong Glam, Little India and Chinatown. Walking was at an easy pace. Lots of stops to look at whilst Jackey explained things very clearly. We learned of Singapore history, the way of life, the social cohesion and the development of society. Lots of interesting facts and anecdotes. 2 short journeys on the underground added to the fun. Rather than concentrate on the glamour and wealthy aspects of Singapore we learned about the people of the country and their way of life. I would recommend this tour.

      Wonderful cultural tour...
      Mr. Chan was a wonderful guide. We went more than even the 3 hours allotted as he passionately spoke about Singapore's rich multi cultural background. He patiently answered any questions and also made sure our 6 year old was engaged through the whole time. Definitely recommend if you want to connect to history and culture at a deeper level.

    Thank you Robin for the memorable morning! Seeing Singapore in a new light, and learning more about the different jobs done along its coast, are great! When the rain came, Robin was prepared and calm and we could still make the most of the situation.

    The lyrics of this National Day song became more real to my sister and me. Extracting 2 stanzas:

    Morning comes around and I
    Can't wait to see my sunny island
    In its glorious greenery
    Whether rain or shine it's still, beautiful
    Bright lights shine on the streets at night
    Guiding me, closer to home
    To a place where I'll be safe and warm
    Where I belong

    Friends and families by my side (by my side)
    Seeing me through as I grow and learn (as I grow and learn)
    Every day's experience bitter, sweet or sour
    They are still, wonderful
    As they become precious memories
    They'll be kept close to my heart
    And no matter where I am, I will always know
    Where I belong

    Lovely trip with Capt Robin! We booked a last min morning tour with 3 young kids (7, 5 & 2) and it was a blast! The capt made sure that he rode the waves gently, and customised the duration / timing of the trip to suit our little kids (and their lack of attention span/ability to last the full 3 hrs). Boat was safe, clean and lovely to be in! Had a blast!

    We had the greatest experience on this boat. Our captain was knowledgeable, friendly, safe, funny, respectful, and you can tell he really enjoys sharing his love of the local water life and stories! We appreciated his willingness to keep in contact with us about the days weather as we were concerned that rain would cancel. As it turned out, he called us mid afternoon and we did make a 4 o’clock trip and caught a beautiful sunset! The entire 3+ hours was more than we could have asked for, and we learned so much and had a great time even with the people we shared the boat with. This is a great activity to balance a trip to Singapores city highlights as you get to see the quieter life on the outskirts and understand the shared waters with Malaysia. Captain Robin was the best!

    This is a great trip, that gives a completely different view of Singapore (literally!) The boat trip around the coast is most enjoyable, and Robin points things out, and provides lots of interesting information along the way. He's a super guide, and we learnt and saw a lot. The final stop, at the floating restaurant which has its own fish-farm on the side, was also interesting, although we only had a drink there. All in all, a great way to spend a morning. Thanks Robin!

    We went as a family of four and enjoyed the boat ride and tour very much. There was a fuel surcharge of $100 as we chose to proceed even though we did not meet the minimum group size of five pax. The tour was interesting, exploring Singapore's northern and north eastern coastline. The tour guide, Robin, deserves special mention for being very knowledgeable and approachable. Dinner at the kelong restaurant was delicious and portions generous for a group of four. We would highly recommend this boat tour.

    I would say the whole trip was a very pleasant and exciting one.
    The tour guide/pilot of the boat was knowledgeable, and careful as he navigates the boat!
    He stops periodically to explain the sites at the same time he explains about the historical sites and how it evolves to the present time.

    He mentioned about Singapore's reclaimation and our neighbours seafront. He was able to tell us where we could find good seafood!

    We toured round Pulau Ubin and he showed us the nearest divide between Johore and Singapore.

    Our final destination was a 'kelong', to show us how the fishes are being farmed.
    We bought fresh garoupa which was over 1kg each, the price was reasonable and they cleaned the fish for us to bring home.

    He continued to explain the sights and sound on the return trip.

    I would recommend a late afternoon trip because its cooler and the lights were so switched on, on boats/ ships around 7pm.

    It was one of my most interesting boat trip thus far and I will consider taking another trip again!

    Found Robin & his tour via Spore Rediscover Vouchers, he replied to my enquiry & confirmed booking of my extended family tour. Nearer date, it is Zenna, his daughter in admin who is very prompt to secure my last 2 slots & see to the details.
    We booked a 4-7pm slot to add on a Kelong dinner.

    It so happened to be the ND celebration Saturday and we were all punctual.
    Robin’s catamaran looks new and clean, he looks after it very well. We removed our slippers & got on it including our 83yo mother who walks with a lightweight pushchair. Robin assured me during my enquiry that there are no stairs to climb from pier to boat to kelong and the tour is suitable for the very young and the very old, no walking around is needed.

    Robin is bilingual and it is a bonus, we requested him to speak in Mandarin so our old mother can understand and enjoy the commentary too.
    It was a leisurely 1 1/2h boat tour as we passed by the various small islands, he would stop at various points for us to see as he shared his knowledge and update of the areas. As we approached different sides of Pulau Ubin, he even shared about its beloved guidance dog Kopi O and pointed to his tombstone. Very interesting!

    Soon we reached Smith Marine Kelong and Floating Restaurant, the only approved one.
    Robin helped us to fish 2 golden snappers for our 2 tables of 5pax each. And our families fished another 4 garoupas $30 each to bring home. They were cleaned and vacuumed packed.
    Actually we did instant fishing. Robin prepared the rod with bait, we just dropped the line and the garoupa jumped onto the bait immediately, reeled in within seconds! Fastest Fishing experience!!
    And Robin removed the hook and we took photos of our catch!!
    Robin is a very experienced angler, gave us many tips.

    The Kelong dinner is abit expensive but it was an experience to dine in on the floating restaurant and to support local business too.
    The chilli crab was good, steamed prawns were very fresh but the soup was lukewarm, big salted squid rings were tasty and the vegetables fried with toufu were ok.
    And we ordered fresh coconuts too!

    Then time to relax and watch the dusk.
    The restaurant owner was there and a very good friend of Robin too. So he shared with us his struggles and heartaches of pursuing his passion and dream kelong, floating restaurant.

    2 friends who are very passionate about the sea and all of us had an awesome time chilling with them.
    Time to say Goodbye and Hope to see you again.
    Thank you very much Robin and Zenna.

    Singaporeans yet to use your Spore Rediscover Vouchers, book this highly recommended tour.

    Excellent tour led by Robin and faciliated by Zenna. From start to end, Robin was a superb guide full of knowledge about the sights we saw and always ready to answer any questions we had. The boat ride was so comfortable and such a unique experience that we didn't want it to end. You get to see kelongs, Pulau Ubin, and pass by various interesting ships/boats, all of which Robin had a story for.

    Shout-out to Zenna as well, who was so hardworking in the planning of the tour. Our original date got cancelled yet she managed to pull together a group at such short notice.

    We're glad we used our vouchers on this tour and will certainly recommend it to our friends and family.

    5 of us book this guided boat tour using the Spore Discover Vouchers. The yacht is good size and clean, just nice for a group of 5 to sit at the front and another group of 5 to sit at the back, adhering to the covid-19 safe distance measure. It was a comfortable ride and we enjoyed the sea breeze very much. Robin is patient and shared many knowledge with us. The tour was well organised. We had dinner at Smith Marine Floating Restaurant (at own cost) and Robin checked with us on our menu selection days before the tour. Everything went very smooth despite the unpredictable weather and we managed to complete the tour before the storm started though there is slight drizzling of the rain on our ride back. It was a fun memorable experience.

    A very insightful and informative tour, where we got to discover a very interesting side of Singapore, and getting to view the shores and city line from a unique point of view on board a boat. Many interesting stories were shared, including the livelihood of fishermen, seeing them catching prawns up close, floating kelong homes and a high tech fish farm. We enjoyed ourselves Lots
