So much more than just a beautiful river. Come hear the stories of what the Singapore River has lived through the building of this nation.
About this Event

Forget what you think you know about Singapore’s clean and pristine reputation. Once a very different kind of city, a fledgling port that went to the brink of disaster, the Singapore River’s story is the most dramatic before-and-after in the country’s history.

Walk through time and step into the lives of our immigrants, colonial officers and early leaders to uncover the twists and turns that powered a grand ambition into the breathtaking skyline of modern Singapore.

Join us in this walk through the history of our mother river in the cool of the night.



Please take note of the following:

  1. The meeting place is at the front of Six Battery Road front portch (nearest MRT is Raffles Place MRT Exit H).
  2. This tour is scheduled for about 2 hours depending on the group size & walking pace.
  3. Choose attire (including shoes) that keeps you cool and comfortable for extended walking and standing.
  4. Due to the nature of this tour, we do not recommend bringing young children, especially with strollers or prams.
  5. We will be visiting a temple. Please have your shoulders and knees covered.
  6. Have your water bottles with you to stay hydrated.
  7. Bring an umbrella as this is a rain or shine event.



Instructions to meeting point

  1. When you get to Exit H of the Raffles Place MRT, you will see an escalator heading up to ground level.
  2. Take the escalator up till you see the exit.
  3. At the exit, turn left and you will see a vending machine.
  4. Turn left at this machine and you will see a short flight of stairs.
  5. The the stairs and you will see the porch where we will be meeting.

Please feel free to tip your licensed tourist guide based on the quality of your experience.
