SINGAPORE TOUR GUIDES
Your Singapore Tour Guides
Culture Curious Singapore Tours designs private tours for travellers who want to understand Singapore beyond its major sights. Our guides combine the warmth of a local host with specialist knowledge of Singapore’s history, culture, food, architecture and transformation, creating engaging and conversational experiences shaped around travellers’ interests.
Our team of licensed Singapore tour guides brings current and previous professional experience in tour guide training, heritage, museums and education, urban planning, and the arts. This breadth of experience allows us to explore Singapore’s vibrant neighbourhoods and lesser-known places from different perspectives, with commentary that goes beyond a one-size-fits-all approach.
Rachel
Hi! I’m the founder of Culture Curious. Passionate about sharing Singapore’s history, I’m also a licensed Singapore tour guide. Prior to Culture Curious, I worked in education and audience engagement for over a decade at National Gallery Singapore and National Museum of Singapore. It has been a dream come true to bring history alive through walking tours of Singapore, stemming from my deep interest in art and history. My interest in Singapore’s development and city planning also led me to a stint as Executive Manager with the Urban Redevelopment Authority, where I led tours for foreign delegations and educators.
A huge history lover with a big appetite for “die-die-must-try” (a term in Singlish which means something that is so good that you have to try it) Singapore street food, I can’t wait to show you my Singapore, the local way!

What delights you and piques your interest when you travel to a foreign land? Is it the people, culture, religion, floral, food, history, architecture, or perhaps all of the above? I’m not your average Singapore tourist guide—I’m an articulate storyteller and Tourist Guide trainer who genuinely loves what I do! From weaving stories about Singapore’s diverse culture, people, and architecture to introducing you to our vibrant street food scene, I’m here to ensure your time in Singapore is enjoyable!

Corliss
I’m Corliss, a Singapore tour guide bilingual in English and Chinese. Learning new languages is my way of connecting to cultures; currently I’m learning Hindi, Korean and Japanese.
Cheery and carefree, I’m a wanderlust at heart and understand that beyond the history and culture of a place, the best experiences are shaped by amazing encounters and secret sights. Outside of work, I’m a volunteer guide with local community groups passionate about advocating for arts and heritage.
Prior to becoming a guide, I gained varied work experience in business, education, and banking.
“If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food, it's a plus for everybody"
- Anthony Bourdain
