    Excellent tour. Highly recommended.

    Excellent tour. We sampled lots of different foods and learned lots from our excellent guide Angel. She is highly recommended. This is a must for anyone visiting Singapore. We went to Hawker markets in Chinatown and also visited Little India. Thank you Angel.

    Fascinating tour with a great guide Kim

    What a thoroughly enjoyable tour with Kim - she is a font of knowledge and really interesting and engaging. We sampled many local foods including Durian (not as bad as people make out) and found out so much about the local area where the Chinatown Hawker Centre was located. You have to be prepared to feel challenged with some food offerings but that is part of the experience - it is absolutely fine to say you don't like a particular dish. Wear something cool and take an extra bottle of water as it can get quite hot and sticky - as Singapore does. Enjoy

    Excellent

    What a great tour, absolutely had a blast, our guides Jan and Kim made us feel very welcome, we learnt so much about the culture and really loved the food we tried. We will be back to Singapore and when we do we can't wait to try one of the other tours on offer. Thank you 😃

    Excellent tour

    My partner and I and two teenagers did our Chinatown walking tour on our first day in Singapore just over a week ago - an excellent way to familiarise ourselves with the food and eating habits of the locals we thought and we were right. Our lovely guides Kim Ping and Pamela were punctual, knowledgeable and ready and willing to answer all our questions. Their knowledge of the local food scene extended to beyond that of the tour - happily giving us recommendations for places for other types of foods we were keen to try but which time and our full stomachs did not allow us to achieve in the time allocated for the tour. The teenagers gave it the thumbs up even though their taste buds were challenged by some foods they had never seen before. Highly recommended and we would be happy to do another Wok 'n' Stroll tour in the future!!

    Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Singapore.

    How much does Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $138 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Singapore usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Singapore is not rushed.

    Is Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Singapore, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Singapore can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Singapore and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Singapore's Chinatown "Off The Beaten Track" Foodie Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Singapore within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Singapore?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Singapore experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Singapore Highlights Small Group Bike Tour on Full-Sized Bicycles, Lion City Bike Tour of Singapore, Singapore River Cruise, Night Garden Rhapsody & Spectra by CYT. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Singapore?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Singapore?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
