Singapore Chinatown and Exotic Hawkers Tour

Chinatown is the original enclave for Singapore’s early Chinese settlers. Today it has transformed into an extremely vibrant and modern melting pot of hip F&B joints, alternative flashpacker hostels, cultural treasures, and retail gems. Navigating the entire Chinatown is a puzzle in itself, the area covering the four sub-districts of Kreta Ayer, Telok Ayer, Tanjong Pagar, and Bukit Pasoh. Let our guide take you through the nooks and crannies of Chinatown and help you uncover the gems that dot the area as you learn about the importance of Chinatown throughout Singapore’s history and its transition through the decades. Your guide begins the journey with stories of days old; you get to hear about the early migrants, opium dens, the underbelly, and the triads that once ruled. A big part of this tour is also the local traditional food stalls your guide will point out along the way. These are the titans that have stood the test of time – think of the delicate traditional Chinese dumplings, creamy egg tarts unlike any other you’ve ever tried, succulent soy sauce chicken rice, our favourite stall aptly named China Fritters and many others! We hope you’re salivating already!
