Beyond Expeditions
23 reviews
Scott Tay, the founder and owner of Beyond Expeditions, started backpacking at the ripe age of 17. During those years and into adulthood, Scott developed into an seasoned traveller. Whenever Scott steps out into the world for travel, he makes a point to go off the beaten path. "Unconventional destinations", that's his mantra. He is a celebrated photographer with a diverse portfolio ranging from landscape to portraiture. His outgoing and friendly demeanour makes him a charismatic and effable facilitator for your expedition, while his sense of humour and love for the locals and nomads is contagious to those around him. This brawny gentleman was also a former fire fighter certified in emergency response and imbued with grit, tenacity and a deep sense of responsibility. Scott brings along with him an immense wealth of experience in adventure and the outdoors. Most recently, Scott embarked on a personal journey to raise funds for the Singapore Cancer Society and trekked 800 km across the Gobi Desert of Mongolia.

Had an enjoyable time with my dogs exploring the world war 2 bunkers! Scott from Beyond Expeditions made things very casual and enhanced our experience with jokes and nuggets of history. 10/10. Will recommend.
