Singapore River Cruise

Sightseeing Singapore, Singapore

Whether you’re on a tight schedule or just have aching feet, a cruise along the Singapore River is a great way to sit back and soak up Singapore’s sights. Boat tours depart from docks along Clarke Quay, sail upriver past the shophouses-turned-bars of Boat Quay, financial district, colonial Fullerton Hotel and durian-inspired Esplanade Theatre until they reach the mouth of Marina Bay. After pausing so passengers can pose with the Merlion and Marina Bay Sands in the background, the boat turns around and retraces its route back. Boat tours depart every 20 minutes or so, and there is no need to buy tickets in advance.
