An interesting drive and river cruise to learn about Singapore and its iconic MerLion (lion/fish water fountain), followed by an interesting synchronized "giant tree" light/music show and a synchronized light/music/water show. The second (water) light show was like a show that you might see in Las Vegas. The giant tree light show was synchronized to an assortment of compelling classical music (which I like; the music changes every month). The guide was engaging, knowledgeable and funny, and he made the tour well worth the money.

So much packed in to a great evening!! Tang was a WONDERFUL guide. Informative, well versed in area, funny, gave clear directions and accounted for all passengers. This tour was super special due to Tang!
Kept informed by our guide of meeting time. A very informative Singapore River Cruise, which left from the Singapore Merlion. Then the light show at Gardens by the Bay, which is AMAZING!! We had to forego the Marina Bay show as my daughter became unwell. Our guide Kavin was awesome 🤩 Highly recommended tour.
Tang was awesome and punctual. Very knowledgeable about Singapore and all is has to offer. Our 4 hr tour went smoothly and the bus which shuttled us from each event was flawless. Definitely an enjoyable night out.
This was a great pick. Chris, the tour guide was knowledgeable, funny , informative and able to relate to all guests well. He provided clear instructions and addressed all questions asked. Keep up the good work Chris ! And the driver did his job well too. Definitely 5 stars. The river cruise is a must. I would definitely recommend.
It is a wonderful trip but there is a lot of walking if you are less abled. Our tour guide Jess was wonderful.
Need to do with a positive attitude and one would enjoy . Emily was a very good guide with plenty of knowledge.
Jessica our tour guide was great! She was funny, engaging and knowledgeable. I would do another tour with her as my guide.
Excellent tour, great guide who really made the tour even more enjoyable. The boat tour in particular was so good.
Our guide Adam was so knowledgeable and showed us some “secret” places to view some of the iconic shows without the crowds. Definitely would recommend
Good boat tour and on board commentary. Kept well informed at all times especially when it was crowded at the light shows
Very good tour at an affordable price. The light show was unique and the river cruise short but interesting
Cruise very nice. Tree show too hot when standing in the floor. Spectra light try to go to low level or stay in the front
Our guide was really excellent and gave us a good overview of the places we visited and Singapore overall. Well worth the time and money
River cruise was good however couldn't hear audio or guide clearly. Often one was talking over the other. Little guideance to group re water show, that if you don't stand right in front you don't see the visuals. Was told that you could catch a taxi anywhere around the markets, this wasn't the case. There were signs stating you couldn't wait. Luckily after walking around inside we walked around the outside and came across the outdoor satay section on the other side which we would’ve missed otherwise. Markets themselves were great.
Lee was an excellent guide. Told facts about the country and took care of us all the time. Made sure nobody is lost.
Great experience and the boat was not overcrowded. Bought a ticket at Clarke Quay and was a simple and easy process. Wonderful views during the boat ride and the light show at Marina Bay just incredible. A must do. Nice way to cool down at night too.
Simple meeting location. Tour guide; Lee and unexpected 3 hour tour of Singapore hilights, River cruise and 2 light shows were all fantastic. Highly recommend!
Our guide Jess was knowledgeable, passionate and had a great sense of humour. Good value with an informative river cruise, bus trip to the gardens for the tree light show and to marina bay sands for the water and light show. Just note it’s about 3.5-4 hours long which I didn’t realise when we booked it
This was a great experience. We seen a few areas that we had not seem
I had a really entertaining night! Kavin was such a nice, fun guy and it was great having him as a tour guide. I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone.
An interesting and well organised tour lead by an experienced and pleasant guide. River cruise and light shows were fabulous.
Chris was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and efficient. The tour was seamless and excellent value for money. Would recommend highly:
Lovely evening the light show was amazing , great guide Emily was so friendly and knowledgeable.
This fantastic vantage point offers breathtaking panoramic views of Singapore, complemented by an engaging audio guide that shares fascinating historical insights. Our entire group absolutely loved the experience! It's the perfect way to appreciate both the city's cherished heritage sites and its striking modern architecture—all in one unforgettable visit.
Pretty well organized. Couldn't always follow the movie on the cruise because of noise. The light shows and evening view of the bay are definitely highlight and the tour is very much facilitating the logistics.
Our guide Emily was great and caring. River cruise was good and informative. Very crowed at night visit to Garden Rhapsody light show, hard to get good photos. Spectra Light show could not see much due to people being 6 deep, could not see to take photos.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. She did a great job explaining the history and culture of the sites and Singapore in general. She kept things light without being too wordy
Light shows are free and walkable from centre. River cruise is not free so could do cheaper but Nelson (Tour Guide) was brilliant and information shared was priceless - great guy…… knowledgable, informative, friendly and helpful
Overall it was good. The company seemed a little unorganized, but overall it was fine. You could easily do this on your own, but it was nice having the Transportation. The boat ride was very nice short, but enjoyed it and had a chance to see two light shows and completely different areas.
If you are short for time in Simgapore this is a must do to see cultural and important landmarks/buildings and learn the history of the Island. The light shows were incredible. The guide Kevin was 5/5, funny. Engaging, informative and had high energy throughout the tour.
We really enjoyed the Singapore River Cruise with Spectra & Garden Rhapsody! Our guide, Nelson, was wonderful, knowledgeable, and fun. The tour was well organized, with a comfortable bus picking us up and dropping us back at our hotel. The river cruise was relaxing, and both light shows were absolutely amazing. I went with my 93-year-old mother, and Nelson thoughtfully brought a light, portable chair so she could sit during the shows. I had mentioned to him beforehand that she had trouble standing for long periods, and he went out of his way to make sure she was comfortable. We both truly enjoyed the experience and are so glad we took this tour!
Loved that they picked me up at my hotel and returned me to hotel after both shows. Both light shows were beautiful and Nelson our guide told us the best place to watch both shows.
A wonderful way to see Singapore at night. The river cruise offered great views of the city skyline and timing it with the Spectra and Garden Rhapsody light shows made the experience extra special. The music, lights and reflections on the water were stunning and it felt relaxed yet memorable. A perfect evening activity and highly recommended.
A really great tour with pick up and drop off at our hotel. Kept well informed before hand about times, driver etc and the guide Matthew also got in touch to confirm. Really enjoyable river cruise with history of Singapore then 2 light shows - one at Gardens on the Bay and one near the conference centre. Well worth seeing. Directly transport back to our hotel. Comfortable coach, water included. Good value for money.
There was some glitch at the start as the guide missed picking up a group of guests and needed to turn back. But the tour ran well and did not feel rushed at all; we did have some free time exploring the surroundings before watching the 2 shows and dropped by street food.
This was an awesome tour. The garden show was wonderful and astonishing even though it was quite short.
The tour started right in front of our hotel, so the value didn’t feel particularly strong for us. Overall, the tour delivered what was described, but the overall vibe felt a bit underwhelming compared to the expectations set by the reviews here.
A+ trip, guide, driver, shows, pick up and drop off and...................... thanks
I studied in Singapore before, and this time I returned to travel with my grandpa. Many of the places were familiar to me, but it felt much more comfortable knowing someone was there to take care of everything. Our guide was very supportive and even asked the driver to drop us off first after the tour. It turned into a truly special trip and a wonderful memory to share with my grandpa.
Our guide Jack was an excellent leader with patience, knowledge, and very humble. We especially enjoyed the Spectra water light show; the music and lights truly made your heartbeat along with the performance. There was no need to push through the crowds, as the show can be comfortably viewed from many open areas. We simply found a nice spot to sit and enjoyed the experience, and we wished everyone would do this as well, so all could enjoy the show comfortably.
The service was outstanding, with clear instructions provided throughout, making everything smooth and effortless for us. Although both light shows are free attractions, the convenience and organization of this tour truly added great value. We visited with our parents and two kids, and without this tour, it would have been difficult to manage everything so easily.
The tour was well organized, the guide was well-informed and shared lots of information during the trip. We got a host of ideas on new sights and locations to visit during our stay.
The river cruise was enjoyable and relaxing along with both stunning and amazing light shows. Our guide Jack was prompt, outperforming and engaging.
Jack was a gentleman and led the group professionally. Everything was coordinated seamlessly with ease.
I think Jess did a great job as a guide, providing interesting background for Singapore and the local history throughout the tour. I don't think the tour was quite what I was expecting though for the light shows. I think the water light show would have been more interesting if viewed from the front rather than the back due to the light projection being directed through the water and at us. The other light show at the Supergrove would probably be entertaining for kids, but I found it quite underwhelming.
Singapore’s weather can be quite unpredictable. At first, we were frustrated that the tour continued despite the thunder and heavy rain. However, we were assured that the weather would improve around the starting time, so we decided to proceed. Thankfully, the skies cleared up, and it turned out to be a perfect evening out.
Amazing tour in Singapore! The beauty of Gardens by the Bay was absolutely spectacular. A huge shoutout to our tour guide, Jessica, who was amazing. She somehow remembered everyone’s name and shared so many great insights about Singapore and its history. She is super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see the highlights of Singapore in a memorable way!
Tour guide Nelson was on time and very knowledgeable about Singapore. We enjoyed a relaxing boat ride on the river and marina. The Gardens by the Bay light show was great and we had plenty of time to get to the water and light show at Marina Bay Sands. Finally dropped off at hawker market for yummy dinner.
Tour guide was very good and had a great time on tour.
