What To Expect
Merlion Park
Start your tour at Merlion Park, where Singapore’s most iconic symbol stands proudly by the bay. This mythical creature, half lion, half fish. Represents the city’s transformation from a humble fishing village to a world class metropolis. More than just a photo spot, the Merlion tells the story of Singapore’s resilience, ambition, and cultural identity. As you admire the skyline and shimmering waters, your guide will share the legend behind the Merlion and its deep connection to Singapore’s history. The stunning city backdrop makes this an ideal place for memorable photos as the golden hour transitions into twilight. This powerful introduction to the city’s spirit sets the tone for the evening ahead, full of lights, stories, and unforgettable sights.
Clarke Quay
Clarke Quay is Singapore’s iconic riverside playground where colonial charm meets electric nightlife. Once a bustling trade hub, it’s now a vibrant hotspot lined with restored shophouses, buzzing bars, and eclectic restaurants—perfect for riverside dining or dancing till dawn. By day, it’s a scenic stroll with colorful facades and breezy boat rides; by night, the place lights up with live music, rooftop cocktails, and people-watching galore. Whether you're a foodie, partygoer, or culture hunter, Clarke Quay hits the sweet spot between historic and happening.

5.00An amazing evening of the best Singapore has to offer for the visitors, a lovely early evening river cruise, then two spectacular light shows first the night garden rhapsody and then the spectra light show from Marina Bay. All the led by our tour guide Jingle who made us all feel welcomed and looked after, finished off by a visit to the hawkers food market where you could sample food from all parts of Asia. A fantastic evening.

3.00The light shows were amazing, and just a stand out experience Time on the coach was long and at times not well organised. Lee the guide was fine a little hard to understand at times, and he was counting people all the time and spending time finding out drop off points!
Efficient, well timed, informative, and beautiful trip

5.00Lee picked me up from my hotel right on time. We took a comfortable bus to the Singapore River Cruise. The bumboat was comfortable with an informative video playing. The sights were beautiful. We then arrived exactly on time for the light and sound show at the Gardens by the Bay. We went from there to the Sands light, sound, and laser show. Everything was great. Lee was very informative and amazed me by keeping up with our large group. I highly recommend him and the tour.

4.00Jingle our tour guide was very knowledgeable, helpful and kept our attention with her witty presentation! Both light shows were amazing. However, we were hoping to see more lights while we were crusing along the river. This could be because our cruise started early at 5:30pm? Therefore, maybe if we were on a later cruise in the evening it would have been more dynamic. p.s. Bonus points for Jingle who was willing to assist us with another Viator tour. Thankfully as it turned out, we didn't need her help BUT we appreciated her willingness to assist us.
Wonderful experience
