Clara

Singapore on Jul 2026

I have been with Valerie since my wedding ten years ago, and I really like that she recommends colours that suit me, listens to what I say, and does not rush through the whole process. She explains why she is using certain products for me, so it never feels like something she just replicates for everybody, and she gives her honest opinion while still respecting what I want for myself. More recently she did my makeup and hair for a corporate shoot, and I also appreciated that she prepared a little touch up package for me afterwards because she considered that my shot might only be a few hours later. Her prices feel reasonable, maybe a bit premium, but not unreasonable.

We had a wonderful experience with Paula during a one-to-one makeup class. We were actually her first clients, and she was incredibly patient, calm, and explained everything clearly while taking things step by step. Although the class was planned for one hour, there was no rush at all and she spent much longer with us to make sure we felt comfortable and got the most out of it. What I appreciated most was how personalised everything was-her advice, techniques, and colour matching were adapted to our individual faces, which is something you simply can’t learn from YouTube videos. I picked up some genuinely useful tips, and the final result was above my expectations. Paula clearly puts a lot of care into improving the quality of her service, and she even followed up afterwards to check that we felt confident applying what we had learned. Highly recommended.

Rahim and the team are a fantastic company. They handled our office IT services and it was a full turnkey product. Any issues, they attend to them physically and remotely, and I have had a very positive experience with them.

Travel is one of the better regulated categories in Singapore, which is useful when you are handing over money months before a trip. Travel agents must hold a licence from the Singapore Tourism Board, and licensing comes with paid-up capital requirements, so an agency selling packages without one is a risk to avoid. Anyone paid to guide tourists in person also needs a tourist guide licence, which involves a real training course. Both are worth checking, because the whole point of booking through an agent rather than direct is that someone stands behind the arrangement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a travel agent need a licence in Singapore?
Yes. Selling travel packages requires a licence from the Singapore Tourism Board, and licensed agencies have to meet paid-up capital requirements. Since you are usually paying well before you travel, that requirement is the main thing standing between your deposit and an agency that folds.
Do tour guides need to be licensed?
Yes, anyone paid to guide tourists in person needs a tourist guide licence, which follows a formal training course and assessment. Licensed guides carry the licence and are generally happy to show it. It is a fair thing to ask about when booking a private tour.
How do I check an agency before paying a deposit?
Confirm the licence, look the company up on ACRA's public record, and read recent reviews rather than a rating alone. Pay by a traceable method that offers some recourse, and be wary of a discount that is only available if you transfer the full amount immediately.
Is it worth booking through an agent at all?
For a simple flight, rarely. For multi-country trips, group travel, visas or anything where something going wrong mid-journey would be hard to fix alone, an agent earns their fee. Ask specifically what support you get while you are away, since that is the real difference.
What happens if my trip is cancelled?
It depends on the terms you agreed and on your insurance far more than on goodwill. Read the cancellation and amendment terms before paying, ask what is refundable at each stage, and buy travel insurance early, since cover for cancellation usually starts when you buy it.
