Jan has spent time living in Thailand and Japan and is now back in Singapore with fresh eyes (and ears) for anything pertaining to Singapore's history, culture and the arts. As someone who’s travelled extensively, his cultural sensibilities extend beyond the shores of this little red dot. He enjoys answering questions and sharing his honest perspectives of Singapore.
Now and today, Jan runs these walking tours with a bunch of his loveliest mates, Roy, Adam, Edwina and Jamie. Say hi and give us a hug when we see you!
I had the pleasure of experiencing a walking tour with Joseph, and it was truly unforgettable. Despite the rainy weather, Joseph, demonstrated exceptional local knowledge and a deep passion for the city. His stories were engaging and thorough, and he ensured the group remained comfortable and as dry as possible throughout the walk. The tour even ran 30 minutes over the scheduled time, but no one seemed to mind—we were all captivated and didn’t want it to end! It was a fantastic way to get a quick yet insightful orientation of Singapore. I highly recommend Pinch of Singapore to truely appreciate the culturr of 3 main ethnic districts of Singapore.
nice experience, I recomend
This was an amazing tour. Adam was extremely well versed in history, culture and kept our safety at the forefront at all times. A great sense of humour and knowledge. What an amazing experience. .
I was planning on taking my parents (around 70 yo) on a tour of Chinatown, Little India, and Kampong Glam - not knowing anything about these areas as tourists. I found the walking, and was the best decision we have made on this trip. Jamie was nice, helpful, funny, and pleasant, and presented lots of interesting information about the different areas - good overview on the history of Singapore, and how it relates to everything from food, architecture, language, religion, race, etc. Jamie was also very helpful with suggestions on where to go after the tour. I highly, highly recommend.
