Review Body: The experience was comfortable, easy and interesting. Our guide, Vivian, was very willing to share her knowledge with us and made an effort to spot as many creatures as possible. It was a small group of 5, allowing us to crowd around Vivian easily as she showed us what she found.
To improve: Perhaps the guide can hold up a signage that says "Intertidal Exploration" so that the participants knew who to look out for instead of waiting around making awkward eye contact. Additionally, it would have been nice if we were given pamphlets on the creatures we could possibly look out for/see with some information of the creatures too. This is so that we are able to both listen to the guide and also read on our own!

Review Body: Interesting experience to see the corals and many sea creatures, from clown fish to sting ray and even a baby reef shark. The guide was very knowledgeable. My only advice is that u should bring along a powerful torch so that u can see clearly in the water.

Review Body: Brought my 7yo nephew to come along and this is what he said: “It was the best Saturday, we saw many animals. From ETHAN”
We went for a 6pm spot and ended with a sunset and a nightfall soak-to-our-knees experience.
Would love to do this again.

Review Body: Perhaps can consider reduce the price as it is quite expensive for a 1.5 hour walk on the beach.

Review Body: There is a lot to like about the experience.
Some memorable moments:
-being told to jump over giant forest ants, something I won't even see or consider if I were on my own
-spooking a colugo and learning that they are closer relatives to primates not lemurs!!
-seeing a pair of glittery eyes through the thicket and Dennis saying "that's sambar deer". I've seen sambar deer in a national park in India, where they are the food of tigers. To think that a small population exists here and that our forests can support them is kinda crazy.
-seeing the endemic jade tree snail
Dennis is a personable guide. He's friendly and knowledgeable, but doesn't commit the common error of loading guests with too much information. He has a sharp eye. As we started walking in, he explained his interest and passion for observing biodiversity and how he self-taught to identify various flora and fauna, starting with insects and snakes and branching out to other species. AND he maintains this conversation while simultaneously hearing/seeing life around him.
He was also accommodating of my schedule, offering to start the tour three hours behind the regular time.
Overall it was a great evening that I've been telling my friends about. I am someone who deeply enjoys walking and being outdoors, but that night opened my eyes to the life that is around me. :) It's definitely worth exploring if you're someone who is looking to learn more about Singapore's endemic biodiversity and our forest ecosystems.

Review Body: Dennis was an excellent guide for our night hike. As a longtime Singapore resident and nature fan I was looking for a different way to experience some of the wild spaces. Dennis’s night time hike was a fantastic way to go do that. It was clear as soon as we met up that he really knows nature and has a passion for it.
We had about a two hour walk on a very easy path, but without a guide there’s no way we’d have seen as many creatures as we did. We were thrilled to get a close up view of some scorpions, and the highlight for me, a colugo high up in the trees and a shy tiny mouse deer.
Would absolutely recommend these walks. It was an unusual and fascinating evening. Good footwear and strong bug spray are essential. You’re mostly under trees so rain isn’t a huge problem. Good quality flashlights are provided and it’s all completely safe.
We arranged everything very easily by WhatsApp.

Review Body: People (myself included) usually visualise of Singapore as primarily a cityscape without many natural plus points. Honestly, I was very skeptical as to whether I should try out this new experience, despite not having heard too much about Singapore's actual 'wild' life. However, this experience was definitely worth the effort of taking that first step into something new and adventurous.
Regular commercial wildlife trips are fun in their own right, but this guided tour by Dennis made me feel like I wasn't talking to a tour guide, but a friend whose enthusiasm and knowledge was almost viral.
Unlike the Zoo, the animals we saw come and go. In such a changing environment, I'll definitely be back again, hopefully with more friends who are still on the fence. They'll owe me one afterwards!

Review Body: We attended as a group of varying ages, from my 70 year old father to my 7 year old son.
We met our guides Xiaoyun and Cec at Pasir Ris and there we set off on a two hour night expedition. We were blanketed in complete darkness, save for the flashlights our guides helpfully provided.
It was a lovely two hour trek that felt shorter than it was as the guides pointed out creatures of the swamp that one would normally not catch in daytime. They were also patient with my seven year old and his questions about spiders, ants, telescopic snails, snakes, horseshoe crabs and crickets.
Would highly recommend as en experience truly off the beaten path - I truly don’t think I have ever done anything like this before. And we’re game for another - maybe the intertidal walk?

Review Body: I never expected our little red dot to have such an interesting night activity. I know little about nature/animals, but this night walk really opened my eyes to a whole new world.
We saw so many interesting nocturnal animals such as the sambar deer as well as the mouse deer!! It was really surprising because I never would have expected to see such animals in the wild, much less in Singapore. On top of that we saw and learnt about many interesting insects such as the roly poly, jade snail and the glowing scorpion ( yes, it’s real and I was was soooo surprised to see that).
I really recommend this tour, especially to Singaporeans. As we are unable to travel overseas due to COVID-19, this is a good time to explore our little island!(:

Review Body: I have been living in Singapore all my life, yet I never knew that spotting animals could be done in Singapore! Dennis has proven that Singapore is a wild life filled Island.
Walking on the trails at night sure brings a different kind of calming experience, like the ones you get during night dives (if you’re a diver you get what I mean :) ). I was particularly impressed by his ability to spot animals that could be easily missed. Dennis is also well versed in his knowledge for wild life animals which was evident when he shared about the defence mechanisms of the animals we saw. Will definitely do another trip with Dennis again, for snakes!

Discover a hidden world beneath the ocean when the tide retreats.
This isn't your average day at the beach. We're talking about strapping on your explorer boots (well, comfy shoes at least) and joining Dennis and his team of self-proclaimed nature nerds on a Sentosa Intertidal Exploration. They’ll lead you on a unique adventure through the hidden world of Sentosa's intertidal zones - that magical space revealed only when the tide goes out. Get ready to get up close and personal with fascinating creatures like sand gobies and scurrying crabs, all while learning cool facts about marine biology from passionate guides who genuinely love sharing their knowledge. Did we mention they're also eco-warriors who organize beach cleanups? Yeah, these guys are the real deal!What to ExpectExperience the magic of Sentosa's intertidal zonesDiscover unique marine life like sand gobies and crabsLearn about marine biology in a fun, engaging waySupport a team passionate about conservation and educationThere is no age limit for the nature walk.
