Singapore River Cruise

In the Singapore Clarke Quay post I mentioned about taking a bumboat ride to discover the scenic Singapore River. Now, I am going to write more detail regarding Singapore River Cruise in this post.

There are two choices for tourists to take a bumboat ride.

The first option is 30 minutes cruise which is offered by Singapore River Experience. It starts from Clarke Quay to Clifford Pier and returns to Clarke Quay. The fees are $13 for adult and $8 for child.

If you prefer a longer ride, you can take the 45 minutes cruise which is operated by New River Experience. It starts from Robertson Quay to Clifford Pier and returns to Clarke Quay. The fees are $18 for adult and $10 for child.

I and my wife boarded a bumboat at the Clarke Quay. The friendly steersman allowed me to stand at the front part of the bumboat to capture video of the charming Singapore River.

The Singapore River cool evening breeze and gentle light of the buildings along the river banks made this river cruise a sweet memory for us.
