Roots & Flavours: A Pulau Ubin Discovery

My family and I went on the tour on 24 May 2026. There were a total of 12 participants for the tour. We really enjoyed our time as our tourist guide Mr Seah is witty, friendly, knowledgeable and looks out for our safety and well-being. He invited us to observe and think before sharing his knowledge and stories with us. It felt like a friend bringing us around to explore the Eastern part of Pulau Ubin. We then ended the tour with a scrumptious lunch. Thank you Mr Seah!

Used our $100 SG Cultural Vouchers. Value for $$$. Seah, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable, experienced and helpful. Very educational / interesting Tour learning much on the flora & fauna/marine lives of Ubin. 10 minutes ferry, 2 hrs trekking; visiting, Wayang Stage, Headman House, Toa Peh Kong Temple ending in Chek Jawa + half an hour walk on Boardwalk. Return trip by van to Seafood Restaurant /Lunch : Squid, steam fish, prawn, sweet sour pork, mixed vegetables. Our family of 6 (one 5 yr old) enjoyed the food + Very well organised Tour. Thanks to Seah, Samuel (Manager, Otter Tour) & Klook for making it such a memorable, exciting family outing for us. Highly recommended to use your $100 Cultural Credit for this Ubin Tour.

So glad I hopped onto this tour—it was totally worth my $100 SG Cultural Voucher! Seah, our tour guide, was amazing. He knows Ubin inside out, from the coolest plants to the quirkiest fun facts, and he made sure everyone was well taken care of. What a fun little adventure! Plus, we had a delicious lunch… super yummy!

It is my first trip to Pulau Ubin as Singaporean. If not because of Covid, I may not visit this place. Great place for visiting. I also found rambutan at the island very nice to eat.

Travelling to Changi Village and taking the bumboat at the jetty sets you on a different mode as you go back in time when things were so much simpler . I was thrilled to see a wild boar family and was afraid to go too close as the mother might be aggressive if we go too close to her babies . We had a good lunch at the seafood restaurant. Everything seems so fresh.

Though it was raining while we were there, it was an interesting experience to explore the island in the rain. The main guide, Seah, was extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Both guides took care of the team (9pax) and helped us to learn so much about Pulau Ubin's Flora and history. Lunch was amazingly delicious with fresh seafood! Big thank you to the guides and the friendly driver in Pulau Ubin!

Very educational and interesting, is also quite unforgettable as one of our group members umbrella was snatched by a monkey. The scenery along the boardwalk overlooking the other side of Singapore is also beautiful and scenic. The mangrove with moulds made by crabs was a rare and interesting views. The seafood lunch after our activity, was okay.

Just take note that the tour actually begins at 9am! I was not added into the WA group by the tour agency, so my mum and I were clueless of the actual tour starting time, and arrived at 9.30am instead. Nevertheless, Richard our tourguide was very knowledgeable and quick to think on the ground. He managed to adjust the arrangement for the tour to let the rest of the tour group take a boat to Pulau Ubin first, while he waited for me and my mum at Changi Ferry Point Terminal. He also helped to explain the situation to the rest of the group on our arrival, and we still had a very enjoyable time with the rest. We explored the Chek Jawa Wetlands, walked the boardwalk and had a surprisingly yummy seafood lunch. Seafood (lala, prawns and fish) was very fresh. Stir-fried vegetables were fresh, crunchy and sweet too. Bee hoon was raved by most at the table as well. Braised chicken wings were tender and omelette was delicious. We also loved the chrysanthemum hot tea and the chilli sauce. The vans were also very clean and comfortable and a great respite from the mosquitos and heat/humidity. My mum and I really enjoyed the trip with Richard our tourguide and the group. Richard was also very helpful to take pictures for us, recommend photo spots, point out interesting features and assist all of us in boarding and alighting the ferry boats. For first timer visitors - please remember to use mosquito repellent and wear long sleeves, pants and bring a hat or umbrella, water bottle, wet wipes and a fan. They will come in useful! You can also choose to stay on after lunch (to explore the sensory trail, cycle, etc) or take the ferry back. This tour is a great way to be initiated to Pulau Ubin and Chek Jawa Wetlands.
