Established in 1972, the Tour East Group is a leading destination management company (DMC), offering curated, small-group sightseeing experiences, in and around 15 countries across Asia. In Singapore, the local branch of the Tour East Group, named Tour East Singapore, offers a range of half-day and full-day sightseeing tours and experiences, which are designed to provide fascinating insights into your destination of choice.
Tour East Singapore offers 34 curated experiences, including city tours to explore Singapore, wildlife encounters, visits to attractions and theme parks, tours to immerse in Singapore's culture and heritage, gastronomic experiences, after-dark experiences, and day-trips out of the main island. Because each tour group is intentionally kept small, this allows for greater interaction and engagement between the guides and each guest. However, this also means prices for a tour, inclusive of tickets and admission fees to attractions, are slightly higher than elsewhere, ranging from $40 to $120 per person.
The Tour East Singapore guides are knowledgeable and friendly. Even as a Singaporean, I gained new insights into familiar places! I chose the Night Out At Marina Bay - Cloud Forest Dome, which included entry into the Cloud Forest Dome in Gardens By The Bay, the Supertree Grove light show, and catching the night view from the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck. Our tour guide, Siva, shared a lot of meaningful information on each location, helping us understand and appreciate the nuances of the places we visited. He was also humorous, and engaged us in banter.
The arrangements by Tour East Singapore during my tour were decent, though our driver got a little lost on the return journey. It really was hassle-free, tickets were distributed by Siva when it was needed, timings were relaxed enough that you could enjoy the sights at a leisurely pace, and locations to meet at were clearly indicated. Because it was a small group, you'll also have ample opportunity to interact with fellow travelers (my group all stayed at different hotels). I recommend Tour East Singapore to those visiting, and looking to delve into discovering the attractions of Singapore.
