Singapore River Cruise Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The story of Singapore River Cruise begins in 1987. The "Clean Rivers Campaign" of 1983 saw the relocation of bumboats to Pasir Panjang. The familiar painted faces of Bumboats were due to disappear from its home, untill SRC was awarded the tender license to run river services here - the first also, to operate such services along the river.
SRC has been preserving the heritage of this important river for more than two decades. Its bumboats have become the icon of this river to visitors and locals alike. Enjoy the rustic charm of the Singaporean bumboats - an iconic way to traverse the Singapore river for tourists and locals alike. Board the boat at Clarke Quay and enjoy a 40 minute cruise, passing by some of Singapore's popular riverside highlights. Sit outside or inside, and listen to the interesting commentary about all of these sights onboard.

Singapore River Cruise offers a relaxing and scenic way to view the city's landmarks and historical sites. It provides picturesque views of both modern skyscrapers and historic buildings, with guided commentary adding context. While it’s a convenient and enjoyable experience, it can be pricey and may be crowded during peak times.
The cruise took about 40 minutes in all since it departed. Our tickets were booked online and its convincing that way. While the day and night would both be a nice experience. We did it during the day as it tends to be less crowded. Although I can imagine how nice the views will be in the night. The ride was smooth, the weather was not that humid, and we enjoyed listening to the recorded audio guide as you cruise through the river's history.
This is one of the best experiences in the city area. We went for a family cruise experience and had an amazing time. The major attractions of Singapore can be seen during this river cruise and it looks gorgeous in the evening time. This is definitely worth doing for any tourist, as well as residents of the city for a quick getaway refreshment.
After punching in Songfa Bak Kut Tea (Clarke Quay Store), go to Clarke Quay before 7 pm to take a boat. The cruise is very clean, the evening breeze is breezy, the night view of Marina Bay is shining, and the 40-minute trip is over. Go to the first floor of the opposite shopping mall to punch Mr coconut (choose sugar-free, still a bit sweet), city walk back to the hotel, Perfect for a night.
The Singapore River Cruise offers a scenic boat ride through the heart of the city, showcasing iconic landmarks like Marina Bay Sands, Merlion Park, and Clarke Quay. It's a relaxing way to experience Singapore's rich history and vibrant skyline.
