About this experience

Begin your night tour with a pickup from your hotel and head to Clarke Quay. See the riverside come alive with lights dancing on the water. Once a bustling trading hub, it now pulses with laughter, music, and the gentle clinking of glasses.

Board a river cruise and float down the Singapore River, watching the city’s story unfold along its banks. See ancient warehouses beside towering skyscrapers, and admire the sparkling reflection of city lights rippling across the water.

Next, head to the iconic Merlion Park, where the half-lion, half-fish statue stands proudly, spouting water like a guardian of the city’s soul. In its watchful gaze, feel the story of Singapore itself—a place that rose from humble beginnings to become a city roaring with ambition.

Finally, visit Gardens by the Bay, where the Supertrees light up like giants in a fairy tale. Watch the Garden Rhapsody dance in colors and music, weaving a spell that makes every visitor pause and marvel.
