We had a fantastic time on this tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Singapore. Everything was very well organised from pickup through to the end of the evening. Our tour guide, Kavin, was friendly, knowledgeable and kept everything running smoothly while sharing lots of interesting information along the way.
The river cruise was beautiful, the views of the Merlion were amazing, and both the Garden Rhapsody and Spectra light shows were absolutely magical at night. At the end of the tour, Kavin was happy to drop us at Satay Street for some well deserved amazing food which was the perfect way to end the evening. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience and would definitely do it again!

Great way to see Singapore from the water. Light show at Gardens by the Bay was great we would recommend
Kylie_E, May 2026
Edwin our guide was above excellent. Very informative, personable & knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend him for anybody taking this tour. 5 stars (at least). The driver of the bus was also excellent - quite the team.
Patrick_K, May 2026
The provision of the history of Singapore and its transition to today’s financial centre was a perfect start to understanding modern Singapore. The tour covered the highlights and was a constant narration throughout the tour. Well worth it.
Vikki_P, May 2026
It was well worth the time, Kevin was amazing and very entertaining, informative. I would recommend doing this tour.
Wayne_B, Apr 2026
Overall its a great tour especially the light shows they were both incredible. And the tour was made more enjoyable by the guide Kevin he was outstanding.
Pat_N, Apr 2026
There is a good bit of walking & the humidity is high, so seniors beware. We enjoyed the tour & Raj, the guide did a super job. The coach driver was great too.

Left early. A lot of standing around doing nothing. The river boat tour does NOT take you to the light shows. Instead you will wait for a bus and then walk to the area that you could have just gone to for free by yourself.
The tour guide was very patronising towards female solo travellers.
This is one of the most dull, misrepresented tours I’ve been on. Save yourself the trouble and book onto an actual light show boat tour - or walk down to the gardens yourself and save the money.
Kim_M, Apr 2026
I thought the Excursion was to go on a boat and watch the Gardens by the Bay show and the firework display. We got to the boat, had a ten minute ride then got off to get on a bus to Gardens by the Bay then on again to fireworks at Marina Sands. I could not fault the guides but I could have done it all free by using the metro system. It is a bit pricey for what you get.
It was all worth seeing but a bit too much to pay

Great way to maximize some of major sights by day and night with info on beautiful Singapore. Learned some history of past and present. Loved it. Thanks Vincent
George_G, Mar 2026
Our tour guide Edwin was excellent!
He was very knowledgeable and provided the group with lots of information on Singapore right up until the time we got back to our hotel which made the experience very enjoyable.
The river cruise and two light shows were a great way to finish off our holiday. 👍
Bhavtik_P, Mar 2026
This whole experience was amazing. I landed late and the agency was able to reschedule my ticket with no hassle at all. Kavin helped me out as well! My tour guide for the night, Jennifer, was very kind and knowledgeable about Singapore. She made sure we were all safe and having a good time. I recommend her she is awesome!

Kavin was an excellent tour guide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Judith_S, Mar 2026
We took 3 Viator tours in 2 days and there was A LOT of repetition in the itineraries. A good guide will make the difference!
Gloria_C, Mar 2026
it was just OK. It was a lot of waiting around for the show to start and sitting on very uncomfortable rocks..We left early because they were thousands of people and wanted to get a cat back to our hotel. I’m also upset that I see that the price for the trip is now being shown for $60 less than we paid.
Dsocia10, Mar 2026
The tour was great except waiting for 30 minutes with our driver for the tour guide to show up! This was not acceptable!
Sue_P, Feb 2026
This is wonderful way to spend an evening in Singapore. Great information is shared on the riverboat cruise and bus tour. The light and water shows are spectacular. Great evening?
shutto58, Feb 2026
The experience at 4 hours was perfect! It hit the highlights of things we wanted to see and Edwin was a great guide! He gave us a lot of great info about Singapore and its history! I highly recommend him!
Kenneth_L, Feb 2026
The whole evening was wonderful. Edwin did such a great job of getting us to where we needed to be and giving us details of history of Singapore.
eliane_p, Feb 2026
They must book this tour. It is magical, something that nobody should missed when visiting Singapore.u
Jodie_H, Feb 2026
There was a lot more unexpected walking which made it difficult for people with walkers and mobility aids. Extremely crowded because of Chinese New Year, almost missed light show due to crowds at venues and poor timing.
Rosemary_S, Feb 2026
Good experience and exceptional guide but, avoid Chinese new year and public holidays as the crowds were horrendous and experience was spoiled by overcrowding.
Transport was also exceptional.
Would have cancelled had we know about the crowds.
Rachelle_C, Feb 2026
There were a few little glitches with our tour. First off I think the number of people was just way too much for the tour. The 30-minute boat ride should have been at the very end where we could have watched the fountains from the river like many of the boats did.... The biggest issue though was when we went to gardens by the Bay, Tang should have directed us immediately from the coach to the lights however he stopped to take some of the guest pictures which causes to be very late and the line was very long so we waited and waited and was late to the light show. We got there at the very tail end and then we had to leave.... Going to the Marina sands hotel however we were 20 minutes early. So I think that they should have just combined the boat tour with the light show. I probably skip the garden by the Bay since it was only 5 minutes which we missed most of...
The last thing is the bus that he found to drive us back to the hotel, with a party bus. It was very inappropriate, four of us get on the bus, the lights were flashing the music was loud. It was clearly a bus for young people to go drinking and partying. Not for 70 and 80-year-olds... Somewhat inappropriate.... Although we loved the light and sound show at the hotel, I think the itinerary really should be reworked.
Yash_A, Feb 2026
We had a wonderful time and recommend this experience to anyone visiting Singapore. Rain spoiled a little bit but we were prepared. Your Guide did provide raincoat to everyone needed it.
Barbara_S, Feb 2026
Read the fine print. 30 minutes on the river. Bus you to lights, yah no, not our style. Wee Soon was very informative but that was it. It’s a bus tour.
Sandra_H, Feb 2026
Learned alot about Singapore which I didn't know. The river cruise was lovely and getting to see the light shows ended the night beautifully
Vadim_Z, Jan 2026
Excellent trip with an excellent guide that provided great commentary and had overall wonderful knowledge of Singapore! Highly recommended.
Melanie_H, Jan 2026
It was fantastic! We really enjoyed the boat ride and loved learning g the history of the city. The two light shows were also really fun and so beautiful! Kevin, our tour guide, was fun, energetic, and we loved his passion for this beautiful city!
Nicola_M, Jan 2026
