What to expect
Clarke Quay
• The journey begins amidst brightly painted, restored 19th-century commercial godowns (warehouses) that now house a vibrant dining and nightlife strip.
• The boat glides under these historic bridges. Elgin Bridge marks the exact location of the very first bridge built across the Singapore River in the 1820s.
• You will pass the sweeping, crescent-shaped bank of traditional shophouses, set against the backdrop of massive financial skyscrapers. Locals call this view the "belly of the carp," symbolising wealth and prosperity.
