A very good way to visit a number of attractions in one go. They have two stops and allow customers to take off. Full ride takes around 49 minutes. Encourage to take the ride early evening to maximize the enjoyment and capture the beauty of Singapore lights.

We went on an 8:30pm laser show cruise and it was fantastic. We embarked at Clark Quay and had a very friendly and helpful Captain (?) who would take peoples phones (felt a bit odd but worth it) and take special view photos for them. The cruise shows you a lot of the river and famous places and then stays in front of Marina Bay Sands for the whole show. It’s a great way to see the city. Outside at the stern is the best place and it’s interesting to pass under some of the low bridges. SG$42 per person and definitely worth it. A daytime cruise would probably be great too and a bit cheaper.

The 40 minute cruise met my expectations. The boat tour provided an excellent overview of the city's landmarks, complete with fascinating historical narration. The traditional bumboats, beautifully refurbished for modern sightseeing, were a highlight themselves. It's a fantastic way to get a feel of the city's cultural transformation to the impressive buoyant, thriving city it has become. If possible do this before exploring each landmark individually. 🚢🚤

as a singaporean, can use sg culture pass! not a bad experience to do with kids and older folks. the best part was waving to all the people walking and sitting along the river hehehe felt so youthful. 40 minutes of calm chill bumboat riding experience. people will snatch the seats at the back cause there has no shelter and is the nicest to take photos. we did the 7.10pm to 7.45pm timing for the sunset (but cannot see lol) so it was nice to see the day turn into dusk. id say the counter service can be more clear on the ride haha. thought the ride has fixed timings but there arent. the boats come about every 15 minutes and you just queue up. also didnt know that you can drop off at mbs!!! why never tell us! inside the tour, the audio recorded tour guide is only in english and not loud enough for those seated at the back.

That's a great experience that allows visitors different views of the most gorgeus parts of Singapore. The cruise lasts about 44 minutes and they have a more expensive time slot that coincides with the light show at the Marina Bay. Ideally, starting the cruise just before sunset allows you to experience different views of the skyline. It is a no frills boat, with an automated narration,but it feels safe and well managed. Definitely a must do experience in Singapore.
