The Singapore River has seen 150 years of commercial activity and has been at the heart of the growth of an obscure fishing village to a great seaport and metropolis. A 30-minute ride on a low-slung bumboat enables you to appreciate this transformation. Admire beautifully restored warehouses that now house chic quayside dining and entertainment spots and the contrasting skyscrapers of the Financial District. Then marvel at magnificent colonial buildings and five grand old bridges before circling around the Merlion statue, Singapore's tourism icon. The tour embarks from Parliament House Landing Steps (near Raffles' Landing Site).
