Let's Go Tour

86 reviews

Let's Go was founded by Robin Loh and Daniel Tan, a couple of friends who were so inspired by a biking experience in Bangkok that they wanted to create authentic experiences in Singapore as well. Fuelled by a passion to reveal Singapore's hidden gems through a fresh lens, they started offering experiences from a small shophouse in Chinatown, armed with nothing but determination and a spark of potential. Little did they know that this leap of faith would ignite an adventure of a lifetime!

The audio experience was truly immersive and the buzzling road of japan besar on a friday night made the experience engaging. The old house reproducing the 60's was also quite good.

Helpful Questions

Are walking tours in Singapore suitable for families with children?

Most of the walking tours in Singapore are suitable for families with children, but it's important to consider the tour length and difficulty level before signing up. It also very much depends on the attention span of the individual kid - many love exploring on a walking tour, but some of the younger ones may find it difficult to pay attention for a couple of hours. Some tours may involve more walking or require a higher level of fitness than others, while others may be geared towards specific age groups. All our experiences include the recommended minimum age on the experience details page - so do have a look there to see if it's suitable for your kids!
