What an incredible way to conclude our vacation! This sunset cruise along the Singapore River was absolutely spectacular and left us wishing we could stay longer.
The vessel was immaculately maintained and well-equipped with informative displays and screens that provided fascinating historical context throughout the journey. The crew's knowledge of Singapore's rich history really enhanced the experience and gave us a deeper appreciation for the city's transformation from a colonial trading port to a modern metropolis.
The evening views were simply breathtaking - watching the sun set over Singapore's iconic skyline while learning about the region's maritime heritage and cultural landmarks created an unforgettable combination of beauty and education. Gliding past the historic shophouses, modern skyscrapers, and bustling quays offered a unique perspective of the city.
This river cruise is an absolute must-do activity when visiting Singapore. Whether you're a history buff or simply someone who appreciates stunning urban scenery, you won't be disappointed. We're already planning to book again on our next visit to the Lion City!
Recommended! This cruise will take you to see all around river and see Merlion, Marina bay sands and feel comfy with river view,

2nd time coming. Love love love. Just quiet time. Just some alone time between me and singapore city. Love the boat very antique and calm. Stunning night views. We did the night cruise. Can repeat multiple times. Never got bored of it.
I had the pleasure of experiencing the Singapore River Cruise during my trip back in 2009, and even after all these years, it still stands out as one of the highlights of my visit to Singapore.
The cruise gave a truly unique and relaxing perspective of the city. Gliding along the river in a traditional-style bumboat, I got to see both the modern skyline and the colonial charm of the historic quays — Clarke Quay, Boat Quay, and Marina Bay — all lit up beautifully at night. The reflections on the water and the gentle breeze made it a peaceful escape from the busy streets.
Back in 2009, the commentary was informative and easy to follow, giving historical background and interesting facts about the landmarks we passed, including the Merlion, the Fullerton Hotel, and Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay. It was a great way to learn more about the city without feeling rushed.
I remember the staff being friendly and the boats clean and comfortable. Whether you're a solo traveler, a couple, or a family, the cruise was — and still is, I imagine — a wonderful way to explore Singapore from the water.
Even after all these years, I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. A relaxing, scenic, and memorable experience!
Great boat trip, plenty of seats outside and inside in case it rains. Good views and a bit of audio to help with landmarks...however, the audio was only a recording.
Loved it.
Breezy. Affordable. Nice views. Insightful verbal and visual stories of how Clark quay evolved over time.
Wait can be a little long but it’s worth it.
Excellent experience and felt very safe during the whole trip. Highlight for me was the light and water show in front of Marina Bay Sands.
It is recommended to take tge trip at night to avoid the harsh of Singapore's heat :)
Spectacular Experience – A Must-Do in Singapore!
The Singapore River Cruise was absolutely spectacular. Gliding along the river with stunning views of Marina Bay Sands, the Merlion, Clarke Quay, and the city skyline was unforgettable – especially at sunset when everything lit up.
It’s a relaxing and scenic way to take in the city’s history and modern beauty. The commentary was informative without being overwhelming, and the whole ride felt smooth and well-organised.
Highly recommended for first-time visitors and even repeat travellers – it’s a different way to see Singapore come to life!
The Singapore Clarke Quay River Cruise was surprisingly peaceful and quiet. A relaxing escape from the city buzz, offering calm waters, beautiful views, and a smooth ride—perfect for enjoying the skyline in serenity. Highly recommended for a tranquil experience.
