Expert-guided heritage experiences through Singapore's most storied neighbourhoods. Cultural, heritage, corporate, and bespoke experiences, solo travellers welcome, private groups from 2 and up.
Serai means lemongrass: essential, versatile, and deeply rooted in the cultures of this region. It is also us: the connection between curious travellers and the stories that Singapore's streets have been quietly holding for centuries.
We are a team of licensed guides, storytellers, and cultural advocates who believe that the best way to understand a city is to walk through it with someone who knows where to look, and what to say when you find it.
"We don't just show you Singapore. We give you a reason to care about it."
