Night view is amazing. Just little bit upset because I need 30 minutes to get official ticket through this platform. If you want to use this platform, just order the day before you depart. It will be more convenient.

The Jurassic Park Experience. I did not check beforehand and thinking a indoor botanical garden. I was surprised and excited once I stepped inside. The tower's exhibits were great! Unfortunately, I did not have enough time to look all and missed using Cable car tickets. I underestimated the time I need for all this. I should had included more time to move one place to next. Still, I loved the Cloud Forest!!

As a South African visiting Singapore for the first time, the Cloud Forest and Flower Dome were truly breathtaking experiences. I had never seen anything quite like it — the lush greenery, unique plant species, and the spectacular indoor waterfall left me in awe. The combination of nature, architecture, and climate control created a magical atmosphere that felt almost otherworldly. It was a memorable highlight of my trip, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Singapore. Thank you for creating such a beautiful and inspiring space!

It was not our first time in singapore of which we had already seen zoo, universal studios singapore and scenic climb to marina bary sands for sunset oanorama. We would recommend it to families for excellent combination of nature jurassucge experiences and looking to the future. Dining services present suitable for all budgets and palates. Attraction reached directly by cab from hotel and booked without problems a day in advance. Preferable, given the temperatures in June and especially if you have children, to experience in the morning

What I particularly enjoyed during the Duck Tour were Edna’s comments. Her enthusiasm was contagious! Every story and detail she shared made the tour lively and full of good energy. You could really feel how much she loved showing us her city, and that made the experience even more special. Genevieve

It was our first time to experience riding duck tours. It was great. My son did enjoy and was quite a amze since this ride can do both land and water combine. I was hoping the tour to be longer since we also want to explore abit of the city. But i guess this is possible we also did the hop on hop off. Btw, thanks to our commentor/guide. She dia a great job!

Love the overall experience- About ticketing I feel it was unnecessary to get the ticket printed and can be done just by scanning a QR code or something which happens usually around the world

SingaporeSingapore River Cruises

Singapore is one of the leading tourist destinations in the world, attracting over 18.5 million visitors in 2018. It is the fifth most visited city in the world, with attractions such as Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay, Sentosa, and Merlion Park being the most popular amongst tourists. In addition to mainland Singapore, other islands that are a must see in Singapore include Kusu Island, St John’s Island, Sisters Island, and Lazarus Island. A cruise is the perfect way to visit these islands and also admire Singapore’s beautiful skyline.

Why Go on a Singapore Island Cruise?

If you want to escape from the concrete jungle of Singapore and enjoy some relaxing time with nature, the Island Cruise is an excellent choice. The 4 islands - Kusu, Lazarus, Sisters, and St John’s Islands are teeming with eye-catching landscapes and pristine beaches, allowing you to get away from the bustle of the city. It is also an excellent picnic spot, which is a great option for families and bigger groups. Spend your time here trying your hand at cycling or simply enjoying a swim. On your way back to the Harbourfront Centre, you are guaranteed to see one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world.  For a one-day getaway from the city, the Singapore Island Cruise is ideal!

All Your Singapore Island Cruise Tickets Explained

Sights Covered

Kusu Island

Kusu Island

Located about 5.6 kilometers from Singapore, Kusu Island is one of the southern islands of the country. Kusu translates to ‘turtle’ or ‘tortoise’ in Chinese, owing to an old legend. The legend goes that a giant tortoise turned itself into an island to save the lives of two shipwrecked sailors. After being rescued, they returned to thank the tortoise., and built a kramat and shrine in its memory. The tranquil landscape and pristine beaches are incredibly popular among visitors, making it the perfect spot for a picnic.

St. John's Island

St John’s Island

St John’s Island was formerly used as a quarantine center for people suffering from cholera. By 1930, it was a well known screening center for immigrants and pilgrims who were returning from Mecca. Currently, St John’s island is the perfect getaway from the bustling metropolis, owing to its non commercial setting and rustic vibe. It is another perfect spot for a relaxing swim in its beaches or a picnic. The Sisters Island Marine Park Public Gallery and St John’s Island Trial are worth visiting here. Fishing is also a popular activity on the island. 

Lazarus Island

Lazarus Island

Lazarus Island is connected to St John’s island through a causeway. Originally used as a prison, Lazarus Island was left abandoned when a prisoner escaped from the island. Fires that broke out in 1902 and 1914 burned away all the vegetation, and the island was left mostly unused. Currently, the C-shaped lagoon is renowned for its white and sandy beach and has been called one of Singapore’s best kept secrets. Picnics with our family and friends and swimming are two activities that are a must-try on the island. Lazarus Island is also home to dozens of stray cats that you can play with.
