Singapore, Jun 2026

I was referred here by an orthopedic specialist and wanted a nearby clinic, and so far after two appointments it has been good. Zhi has been very approachable with my questions and queries, and with the consultation and explaining my condition, he has been caring and professional. I think he will help me regarding the pain I’m having. The only thing is I feel it is a bit overpriced for a 45 minute session, but I would still recommend him for sure.

Sureen did the interior design for my living room and dining room, and she has an eye for design and did it really well. She gave a lot of options from the start, and we went through a few different designs until she really captured the vision I wanted. She came over personally on the execution day while everything was being put together, like the paintings and furniture, and overall, even though it was a limited scope, she did it very well. She has very fresh ideas, and if you want a different take, she’s very good with that.

Amrita is an amazing baker and really dedicated to making sure any order is crafted to customer needs. I have ordered cakes from her several times, including parties for my son with a lot of boys at the rugby field, and she provided packaging and solutions so it was not troublesome at all to serve. The taste is amazing, and the cakes look very natural with flowers and edible leaves, really decent. I also like that I can rely on her for special occasions and personalized notes, and it always feels like good value for money.

What to know about travel & leisure in Singapore

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. Locallista lists travel agents, tour operators and leisure providers in Singapore, screened before listing and ranked only on phone-verified reviews.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find a travel agent I can trust in Singapore?
Check the licence first. Selling travel packages in Singapore requires a licence from the Singapore Tourism Board, and licensed agencies must meet paid-up capital requirements. Since you usually pay well before you travel, that is the main protection between your deposit and an agency that folds. Then read recent reviews of agencies Locallista has screened. Contact details are visible after you sign up.
Do I need a tour guide or a travel agent?
It depends on the trip. A tour guide shows you a place in person, at your pace. A travel agent earns their keep on multi-country trips, group travel, visas, or anything that would be hard to fix alone if it went wrong mid-journey, and rarely on a simple flight. Open the category that matches, and ask an agent what support you get while you're away.
How do I book a reliable guide or agent quickly?
Pick the category, read recent reviews rather than a rating alone, and contact one or two with your dates, group size, interests and any visa questions, so they can tell you straight away whether they can help. Reviews on Locallista are usually collected by phone after the trip, so you know what to expect.
What should I check before paying a deposit?
Read the cancellation and amendment terms and ask what is refundable at each stage. Look the company up on ACRA's public record, and pay by a traceable method that gives you some recourse. Be wary of a discount that only applies if you transfer the full amount immediately.
Do tour guides in Singapore need a licence?
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, so it's a fair thing to ask about when you book a private tour.
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 terms before paying, keep every confirmation in writing, and buy travel insurance early, since cover for cancellation usually starts when you buy it, not when you travel.
