Highlights

Step back in time and relive Singapore's colonial era on a journey along the historic Singapore River with the Singapore River Cruise, passing by iconic landmarks on a captivating journey. Delve into the city's rich history and witness the seamless blend of heritage and modernity during this 40-minute ride aboard a re-fashioned bumboat.

Once bustling with commerce, the Singapore River was the lifeline of trade, with godowns lining the quays and traditional bumboats ferrying goods along the Rochor, Kallang, and Singapore rivers from the 19th to the 20th century. Since 1987, the Singapore River Cruise has been preserving this historical facet, offering a unique perspective on modern Singapore from the decks of these traditional wooden boats.

As you cruise through the picturesque districts of Clarke Quay, Boat Quay, and Marina Bay, discover Singapore's old rustic charm with onboard commentary that unveils the tales of the Raffles Landing site and narrates the fascinating history of the river that breathed life into the city, passing by Singapore's landmarks that make up the nation's vibrant history.
