SINGAPORE RIVER CRUISE

The Singapore River Cruise departs beside Marina Bay Sands and loops along the Singapore River. From the water, passengers see the Merlion, Fullerton Hotel, and Marina Bay Sands while an English commentary covers the city's history, and at night the illuminated skyline is visible. The ride lasts about 40 to 50 minutes, and sunset or evening suits it better than daytime. During the day there are fewer passengers, so boats tend to depart without waiting.
