Professional tour guides, English and Mandarin
See Singapore with someone who can explain it. Add a licensed, professional guide to any vehicle in our fleet for S$50 an hour, with a 4-hour minimum.
A guide, not just a driver
Our chauffeurs know the roads. A guide knows the story. For visitors who want more than a lift between attractions, we provide professional tour guides who ride with you for the day and turn a list of stops into something you actually remember.
Every guide speaks fluent English and Mandarin, which makes them a natural fit for families travelling across generations, business visitors hosting clients, and groups where not everyone shares the same first language. Tell us which language you would like when you book.
The guide is an addition to your vehicle, not a replacement for the chauffeur. You keep the same maxi cab, minibus or luxury MPV and the same driver, so nobody is navigating, parking or watching the clock except us.
What your guide does
- Plans the day around youBring an itinerary or ask for suggestions. Your guide paces the route so you are not rushed or queuing at the worst hour.
- Explains what you are looking atHistory, culture, architecture and the everyday details that do not appear on a plaque.
- Handles the practicalitiesTickets, queues, where to eat, where the good photographs are, and where the toilets are.
- Travels with the groupYour guide stays with you for the whole booking, on foot at each stop as well as in the vehicle.
Popular routes
Most half-day tours cover Marina Bay, Gardens by the Bay and the civic district, or the heritage trail through Chinatown, Little India and Kampong Glam. Full-day bookings add Sentosa, the Botanic Gardens, the East Coast or a food-focused route through the hawker centres. Cruise passengers with a day in port and families with older visitors are two groups we look after often.
Frequently asked
What languages does the guide speak?
Our guides are fluent in both English and Mandarin. Tell us which you prefer when booking, or ask for both if your group is mixed.
How is a tour priced?
Two parts, both charged by the hour: the vehicle at its normal hourly rate, and the guide at S$50 per hour. A tour has a 4-hour minimum, so a 7-seater with a guide starts at S$200 for the vehicle plus S$200 for the guide.
Is the guide the same person as the driver?
No. The guide travels with you in addition to your chauffeur, so you get someone dedicated to showing you around while the driver concentrates on the road and the parking.
Can we choose our own itinerary?
Yes. Tell us the places you want to see and your guide will build the day around them, or ask them to suggest a route. Either way you keep the vehicle for the whole booking.
Do you cover entry tickets and meals?
Attraction tickets, meals and any entrance fees are not included and are paid directly by your group. Your guide will help you buy tickets and can recommend places to eat.
How far ahead should we book a guide?
Guides are booked per day, so weekends and holiday periods fill up first. A week of notice is comfortable; call us for shorter notice and we will check who is free.
