Five years ago, the river cruise ws amazing - a real live guide, with anecdotes and a passion for the area. Today there are attractive walkways, where there was once a stilted river village, but somehow it doesn't work. Sure the buildings along the river are brightly coloured and covered in huge murals depicting the rich history and diverse community.We... More

I did this cruise about 15 years previously and quite a change. They have built new embankments all along the river (it used to be just mud with interesting mud skipper fish) and tarted up all the houses with painted murals. There was no commentary on the cruise I did, but for RM15, you cannot complain. Look out for monitor... More

The cruise driver was nice to provide information about the whereabouts in Melaka. It was very nice to know about every little detail of the historic city. It was pretty freaky though when the driver mentioned that one of the bridges that we pass by was a place where they actually beheaded people in the past. But when passing by... More

The Melaka river cruise is a 30 to 45 min cruise along the Melaka river! The scenic view from the boat is so beautiful. Learning about Melaka's history and watching the old style houses and villas was so gorgeous! Worth it!!!

We - wife & i - did this cruise in the evening - 7.00pm cruise - from near the maritime museum. This was a good time as it was not yet dark on the trip up the river and dark enough to see the beautiful lights on the return trip to finish with a lovely sunset.. Cost 15RM p/p and... More

This cruise is a good introduction to Meleka as you go around the river and see all the sights. It costs 20 RM each and takes about 40 minutes all up. If you are staying for a couple of days do the night cruise as well as it is a very different perspective all lit up. The murals across the... More

This cruise gave us a different prospective of the city. The river area has so much to offer by way of heritage and dinning areas'. Colorful, entertaining and very relaxed.

OK - at RM10 per adult (kids free) it's not going to break the bank, but this cruise could be made into a much more interesting experience. The whole thing takes about 40 minutes from the jetty to near the mouth of the Melaka river and has a narration on the outward leg. Therein lies the problem. It is the... More

It has a very nice and pleasant view especially during sunset. A good experience and value for money.
