Singapore River Cruise Ticket

Experience the Marina Bay Laser Show from a River Cruise

For the most romantic moment of your Singapore trip, hop aboard a river cruise. Glide along the sparkling Singapore skyline for about 40 minutes, passing iconic landmarks like the Merlion, Marina Bay Sands, Helix Bridge, and the Esplanade Theatres on the Bay. You'll also get to hear descriptions of these famous sights.

What's great about the Singapore River Cruise is that it departs from Clarke Quay, making it easy to fit into your itinerary at any time!

How to Board the River Cruise

The Singapore River Cruise departs from the River Cruise Ticket Booth at Clarke Quay. If you purchased your ticket through WAUG, simply present your 'WAUG Exclusive QR Code' to receive your physical ticket. This exclusive QR code allows for a convenient and direct ticket exchange, making boarding the river cruise even easier.

If you have trouble finding the location, you can easily find it by clicking on the Google Maps link.

A Romantic Journey Starting from Clarke Quay

The Singapore River Cruise route starts at Clarke Quay and passes by Read Bridge, Boat Quay, Fullerton, Merlion Park, Bayfront South, and the Esplanade Theatres on the Bay before returning. The total journey takes 40 minutes, and you can disembark at any stop.

However, once you disembark, you cannot re-board, so it's recommended to use it as a scenic cruise rather than a mode of transportation.

Most Popular Boarding Times

Singapore is a city with truly stunning night views. Therefore, it's highly recommended to take the river cruise after sunset. If you plan to enjoy drinks at Clarke Quay, it's best to take the river cruise before you start drinking. For this reason, the most popular boarding time is between 7:00 PM and 8:00 PM.

Taking the river cruise for about 40 minutes during this time and then returning to Clarke Quay to enjoy a Tiger Beer, Singapore's signature brew, at a pub makes for a perfect evening plan.

Want to Watch the Laser Show from the River Cruise?

The highlight of Singapore's nightscape is undoubtedly the laser show. To catch it, simply board a Singapore River Cruise that operates in sync with the laser show timings.

Marina Bay Sands Laser Show Times
8:00 PM / 9:00 PM / 10:00 PM

River Cruise Boarding Times
7:45 PM / 8:45 PM / 9:45 PM

By boarding the river cruise 15 minutes prior to these times, you can enjoy the Marina Bay Sands laser show right from the water.

Best Seats for the Laser Show

The Singapore River Cruise offers both covered and open-air seating. The covered seats at the front and middle sections are arranged for two people, while the rear seats accommodate multiple people but are open-air.

To get the best view of the laser show, aim for the rear, communal seating area. Remember, the laser show originates from the Marina Bay Sands hotel building, so you'll be looking up at the sky! Keep this in mind.
