What to Expect
Situated on the city fringe, Little India embodies a fusion of cultures, offering a glimpse into everyday life in Singapore.
We'll meet at Little India MRT Station and start the tour at a local wet market in Tekka Centre. Be greeted by the chatter of residents making a beeline for fresh produce. See spice makers and market vendors in action and get acquainted with our street food culture as you learn to order street food like a local.
Stroll along Serangoon Road, one of Singapore's oldest roads and learn about indentured labour in the former British settlement and its connection to the district.
Sri Veeramakaliaman Temple is most known for being a significant place of worship among the Hindu community. Not only that, it was also a former place of refuge during the Japanese War Occupation. Your expert guide will point out the time-honored traditions and customs central to Hindu worship and its impact on early immigrants.
Along hidden streets and alleyways, we will also see vibrant street art and flower garland makers.
See a selection of architecture such as Tan Teng Niah House and conserved shophouses, plus a bonus stop at a public housing estate with sweeping views of the city.
A visit to Little India is not complete without seeing Campbell Lane and Little India Arcade. From fruits and spices to flower garlands and cultural paraphernalia, Little India Singapore is a feast of sights and sounds highly recommended for the culturally curious!

Michael Azarian2024-06-01Rachel came highly recommended to us from a trusted source and she exceeded expectations! Her breadth of knowledge and enthusiasm about the history and culture of Singapore significantly enhanced our experience. She was incredibly helpful for all sorts of guidance both on and off the tour. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Singapore.Steve Wille2024-05-07Rachel was AWESOME. We really, really enjoyed our time with her and would highly recommend her! She is very professional, knowledgeable, sweet and fun to be with. We will definitely spend time with her on a future visit.Tim Gemmeke2024-03-12If it wasn't for Rachel's wonderful city tour, I'd never have learnt so much about Singapore's history and culture on only one day! Rachel has an incredible knowledge treasure that goes far beyond the usual instagram spot guidance (you'll have that, too, no worries). Because of her former job in a museum, she has almost an anthropological awareness of the context modern Singapore exists in. Would give the tour a six star rating if it was possible!Marc Brehmer2024-03-12We love it!Philippp Valerius2024-03-12Following a long flight and minimal rest, we joined Rachel's tour. Her dynamic personality immediately revitalized us, and her engaging journey through the city provided us with a thorough understanding of the rich culture it boasts.Rene2024-03-05Our company recently hired Culture Curious for a private tour of Singapore City Gallery for our overseas management. Planning was a breeze from the beginning with prompt replies and effortless coordination. Our guide Rachel expertly shares about the strategies and challenges in planning for a city state. Highly informative and knowledgeable team of guides. Thank you.Pavlin T2024-03-05Great tour, I would recommend it to everyone.Kim Seng Cheong2022-08-02My organisation did a corporate tour with Culture Curious Singapore Tours recently. The target audience were our guests from Europe. Rachel was very accommodating to our requests and she is very thoughtful in her approach to planning/conducting her tours. A special mention also goes out to co-guide Diana for her great commentary/story-telling whilst managing to introduce Singapore in a fun/engaging manner. I would not hesitate to recommend Culture Curious Singapore Tours to anyone wishing to understand Singapore in a more authentic way. Keep up the hard and heart work Rachel and team!
