Naturalist Night Adventure
If you are looking for a unique experience IN SINGAPORE, you've come to the right page! This activity will be conducted at night, when the forest comes to life! We'll start off with some basic rules, how to actively participate and what we might hopefully find. Having done that, you will join me in the activity which will last approximately 2 hours. You might experience the slight humidity of Singapore but other than that, we emphasise on safety and this is definitely suitable for all ages! We will be using our senses to pick out the creatures of the night. You will be able to learn from us how to appreciate the tranquil sounds of the forest, identify quirky insects and learn how to spot one yourself!. There are tonnes of critters around the walking paths and they offer a fantastic introduction to Singapore's hidden wildlife ; fruit bats, owls, forest ants, roosting birds, quirky bugs, different species of frogs, large snails, snakes, scorpions and plenty more! This is an immersive activity and as such, guests have to actively participate together. I cannot guarantee sightings/animals but we will try!

A minimum of 2 sign ups per session is required. If there are insufficient sign ups, you will be notified 1-2 days in advance for alternative arrangements.

Everyday Street Art + Street Food Walk
#1 Airbnb Experience in Singapore with 450+ five star reviews!!! In this trail, we will discover the diversity of food of the main ethnic groups in Singapore. And while any foodie tour can take you on a hawker trail, we’ll let you in on the secrets behind the best stalls. The group size is intentionally kept intimate (no more than 6) as our food stops are small businesses specially handpicked to reflect artisanal techniques - not the ones typically visited by commercial tours. I don't do this everyday as well as I respect the market and do not want to turn it into a tourist trap. More than tasting, you will also get a full palate education on the herbs & spices that are used in the traditional culinary kitchens of this region. In between eating stops, we take a breath to explore some terrific street art and walk through atmospheric alleys. This is the ultimate feast for the stomach and eyes! Notes : - For curious explorers of Singapore street food scene - Vegetarians (ok with eggs and milk) welcome! Just let me know in advance! - Love the environment! I do not use plastic in order to minimise the waste in this experience. Fully customisable : -Accessibility: Stroller, wheelchair friendly -Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free, vegan -Large groups: Corporates and teambuilding -Schedule: Afternoon, evenings or anytime you want

Speakin' Easy Cocktail Hop
Having established itself as one of the cocktail capitals of the world the city is bristling with speakeasies at every corner. I shall help navigate your legs and tastebuds on an adventure of flavour, sights, and sounds. We will be hitting up at least 3 bars maybe more depending on the group and time. Other things to note You will get 1 drink per bar included as part of the tour. But you can purchase additional drinks if you choose to. You can purchase food at the bars separately. Drinks in Singapore are expensive, especially at cocktail bars. Expect to pay between 28-35 SGD per drink including service charge and taxes for your additional drinks. Bites can cost between 10-20 SGD and main courses from 30 to 100 SGD. I recommend trying bites from each bar to make it easier on your body and your wallet :) We will be staying at each bar for 45-60 mins (with some flexibility) so pace yourself :)
