Best Time To Take The Singapore River Cruise

Afternoons vs. Evenings

Afternoons in Singapore get really hot and it might be uncomfortable for some to sit on the bumboat comfortably, even though there are covered seats available. In that case, the best time to take the Singapore River Cruise would be in the evenings just during sunset so you get awesome views of the city during golden hour and you also get to see the night lights come on. Attractions like Marina Bay Sands, Singapore Flyer and Esplanade are spectacular to view in the night.

Peak Season vs. Low Season

Peak season in Singapore is from June to August and you will see the city bustling with tourists. However, if you want to sightsee without too much rush, it is best to visit during the shoulder season between February and April. The weather is great during this time, with not too much rain and is just between winter and summer.

Days like Valentine's Day and New Year's Eve are also extremely popular times to visit Singapore.
