Singapore River Sightseeing Cruise by WaterB

Glide along the shimmering Singapore River and let the city’s magic unfold before your eyes. This isn’t just a cruise—it’s a journey through time, where sleek skyscrapers nod to historic shophouses, and every bend in the river tells a story. Feel the gentle breeze as you soak in panoramic views, savor local flavors, and uncover the heart of Singapore’s vibrant culture.

Tour Overview

Picture this: You’re seated on a sleek, open-air boat, the hum of the engine blending with the distant chatter of riverside diners. The golden hour paints the skyline in hues of amber, while your guide shares tales of traders, settlers, and the river that shaped a nation. It’s relaxed yet fascinating—like flipping through a living postcard where every glance reveals something new. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, this cruise offers a fresh perspective on Singapore’s soul.

Exploring ArtScience Museum

Step into a world where creativity meets curiosity at the iconic ArtScience Museum. Its lotus-inspired petals glow against Marina Bay’s skyline, but the real wonder lies inside. Wander through immersive exhibits where art, science, and technology dance together—think interactive light displays, futuristic installations, and thought-provoking storytelling. Don’t miss the rain vortex, a mesmerizing indoor waterfall that feels like stepping into another dimension.
Perfect for families, dreamers, and anyone who loves a little magic with their sightseeing.

Memorable Moments

  • Laughter shared with fellow travelers as you spot monitor lizards sunbathing on the riverbanks—Singapore’s quirkiest locals!
  • Sipping a chilled bandung (rose syrup drink) on deck while the Merlion spouts water in the distance, a playful wink to Singapore’s past.
  • The hush of awe when the Spectrum light show ignites the waterfront, turning the bay into a canvas of color.

What's Included

Your journey is thoughtfully crafted to immerse you in the beauty, culture, and flavors of your destination—without the worry of planning every detail. From the moment you arrive, we’ve taken care of the essentials (and a few delightful surprises) so you can focus on the magic of discovery.

  • Seamless private transfers—because the first and last impressions matter. A warm welcome awaits you at the airport, and every ride between cities or hidden gems is comfortable, punctual, and filled with local insights from your driver.
  • Handpicked accommodations that feel like a home away from home. Whether it’s a boutique hotel with a rooftop view of ancient spires, a cozy riverside lodge, or a historic villa draped in bougainvillea, each stay is chosen for its charm, location, and authentic hospitality.
  • Daily breakfasts to start your day right, featuring fresh local specialties—think flaky pastries with honey from nearby farms, tropical fruits you’ve never tasted before, or steaming bowls of spiced porridge made from generations-old recipes. (And yes, the coffee is exceptional.)
  • A mix of guided explorations and free time, led by passionate locals who know their homeland intimately. They’ll share stories behind crumbling ruins, introduce you to artisans in their workshops, and point out the best street-food stalls—then step back so you can wander at your own pace.
  • Unforgettable cultural encounters, like a private taiko drumming lesson in a Kyoto temple, a sunset dhow cruise with Omani sailors singing traditional songs, or a hands-on pasta-making class in a Tuscan farmhouse. These aren’t just activities; they’re memories in the making.
  • All entrance fees to sites and experiences—no fumbling for tickets or missing out because of sold-out slots. From hidden gardens to world-famous museums, we’ve secured your access, often with skip-the-line privileges or after-hours visits for a quieter experience.
  • A few "only here, only now" touches: Perhaps it’s a picnic basket filled with regional cheeses and wine, delivered to your hotel for a spontaneous afternoon by the lake. Or a handwritten note with a local poet’s verses left on your pillow. Small, meaningful details that remind you this trip is yours.
  • 24/7 support from our team, whether you need a restaurant recommendation at midnight, help navigating a train delay, or just someone to celebrate when you’ve summited that breathtaking viewpoint. We’re never more than a call or message away.

This isn’t just a list of inclusions—it’s an invitation to travel deeper, with ease and wonder.
All that’s left is for you to say yes.
