Tips

Evening cruises offer cooler weather and stunning city lights—aim for sunset or later for the best atmosphere.
Seats are first-come-first-served; arriving a bit early ensures you get a good spot for unobstructed views and photos.
There’s no restroom on the 40-minute boat, so use the facilities at Clarke Quay before boarding.
The boats have a roof for shade and rain cover, but sides are open—carry an umbrella or poncho if rain is in the forecast.
Audio commentary is provided in English; sit near a speaker if you want to clearly hear the historical stories during the ride.
