Just got back from the Singapore Little India Hidden Gems Walking Tour (Private & All-Inclusive) with ForeverVacation

Went with my boss (yes, the cool one), and we had an absolute blast. From colorful streets to secret snack spots, every corner had a story. Our guide was super chill, knew all the best spots, and kept it fun and easy. Definitely a must-do if you wanna explore beyond the usual tourist trail. 10/10 would stroll again

A Colorful Day in Singapore’s Little India

I did the Little India Hidden Gems Walking Tour in Singapore with my family in October 2024, and it was such a great experience. The guide was super friendly and showed us places we never would’ve found on our own cool temples, street art, and tasty local snacks. It was a private tour, so everything felt relaxed and personal. We got to really soak in the culture, not just rush through. Definitely a highlight of our trip!
Response from Host, Apr 2025
