Licensed Singapore Tour Guide
Betty Wee’s early retirement provided an opportunity to do a three-year stint as a volunteer in Israel. While there, she did pit-stop vacations in Europe where her curiosity for tour guiding was sparked.
On her return to her native Singapore, she stumbled upon guiding at the museums and she is presently on a roller-coaster ride discovering hidden stories everywhere. Whether in the museums or out on the streets of Singapore, whether related to nature, culture, or heritage, she is discovering stories just waiting to be shared.
Her enthusiasm and energy are boundless, and Betty was recognised in 2010 when she was an Active-Ager Awardee, due to her active volunteerism.
An avid walker and jogger, she enjoys exploring both new and old places and takes joy in the natural beauty of her surroundings—in their many forms! Betty loves to wander the streets of the rich historical neighbourhoods of our island, and is at the same time fascinated by the gentrification taking place in so many places.
Judaism in Singapore
Heritage & History
English licensed guide
Jane’s tours and our guide Betty were exceptional. A thorough knowledge of Jewish history: incredible access to historic synagogues and other Jewish sites. Highly recommended to seasoned travellers. We both have been in Singapore many times, yet were introduced to other aspects of Singapore we never knew about.
Things were just as excellent. We were lucky enough to have Betty lead us on a beautifully constructed tour examining the Jewish side of Singapore. Her content was well researched and the style of delivery was totally engaging and kept me, my wife and my sons (two young adults) interested throughout the whole time. Everything was planned meticulously so that we were able to visit both synagogues in Singapore and also travel across the city seeing various sites that evoked some fascinating stories from Betty.
As I couldn’t make the ‘Black & White Houses’ tour, I opted instead for the ‘Joo Chiat’ one. I’m very glad that I did. Betty was a great guide: with personal knowledge and experience of the subject. I learnt a lot about this low key district of the city / country, as well…”
We had a thoroughly enjoyable tour with Jane’s Tour to Chinatown and Kampong Glam – Betty our guide was very interesting and had lots of information to share and was very helpful answering our many questions.
