Compact, spotless and endlessly surprising, Singapore is one of Asia's easiest destinations to explore — and one of the best to see with a private tour guide. A bespoke itinerary lets you skip the queues, eat like a local and uncover hidden corners that guidebooks miss. Here is your 2026 private travel guide to the Lion City.
Why Book a Private Tour in Singapore?
- Tailor-made pace: Cruise the Marina Bay waterfront at sunrise or shop Orchard Road till late — your day, your rhythm.
- Insider knowledge: Local guides reveal the stories behind colonial shophouses, hawker legends and futuristic landmarks.
- Effortless logistics: Private car, driver and guide handle transport, tickets and reservations — you simply enjoy.
- Family-friendly: Flexible stops for kids, seniors and multi-generation groups, with comfortable vehicles throughout.
Best Things to Do in Singapore
Marina Bay & the Skyline
Watch the sunset from the Marina Bay waterfront, catch the Spectra light-and-water show, and ascend the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark for a 360° view of the city.
Gardens by the Bay
Wander beneath the Supertree Grove, step inside the climate-controlled Cloud Forest and Flower Dome, and see the gardens light up after dark.
Culture & Neighbourhoods
- Chinatown & Buddha Tooth Relic Temple: heritage shophouses, temples and spice-scented lanes.
- Little India: colourful murals, flower garlands and South Indian feasts.
- Kampong Glam: Sultan Mosque, indie boutiques and the hippest cafés in town.
What & Where to Eat
Singapore's hawker centres are a UNESCO-listed food paradise. Must-try dishes:
- Hainanese chicken rice — silky poached chicken over fragrant rice.
- Chilli crab — messy, spicy and unforgettable.
- Laksa — creamy coconut noodle soup with prawns.
- Kaya toast & kopi — the classic local breakfast.
Practical Travel Tips
- English is widely spoken; MRT is fast, clean and cheap.
- Carry a light jacket — malls and museums are heavily air-conditioned.
- 3–4 days is ideal for a first visit; add Sentosa or a day trip to Johor for longer stays.
