The entire journey took around 30min. The small boat is stable and the ride doesn't make us giddy or experience any motion sickness. Overall, the ride is pleasant for anyone who has not been before.

Both side of the river were all lit up with different colored lights and this really made the cruise scenery really interesting and fun.

📍 Melaka River Cruise We went to Melaka just to enjoy the river cruise experience at night. The river cruise is colorful at night as you can see the bridges, malay kampung houses, shops & restaurants along the river. Duration 45 minutes. Operating Daily at 9.00a.m. - 11p.m. #mymymemories

Along this river, you can see most of the interesting places in Malacca such as Dutch Fort, the Sea Museum, etc. In fact, along the river there are also many interesting murals painted on the walls of buildings. There is also audio played on the boat that provides information every time it passes an interesting place along the Melaka River. The most interesting time to ride the boat is at night because it is less hot & the view along the river is also more exciting because there is an abundance of colorful neon lights that illuminate the river bank. The journey time is also quite long around 40-45 minutes. #rivercruise #riverview #melakariver #melakacruise #malaccarivercruise #malaccatrip #lightsatnight

How to get there - From Kuala Lumpur, take a bus at TBS for about 10-13 ringgit. It takes about 2 hours from the bus station. The bus leaves on time, not late, so I recommend buying tickets at the station. Tourist attractions - Malacca, Malaysia, a world heritage city Hotel - On this trip, we stayed at the Transit KL Hotel in the heart of Kuala Lumpur and came as a one-day trip. Restaurant and food - The bingsu is very delicious. The restaurant is located on the canal, cool and comfortable. Shopping - Souvenirs around the tourist attractions are cheaper than in Kuala Lumpur. If you want to buy souvenirs, Malacca is the place to go.

#malaka -Best part of Melaka travel irrespective of the age. You will surely enjoy at Melaka river. You can have river cruise, river walk, cafes and just next to the center of Melaka. The cruise took close to an hour.. Night the river is lit up with lights and boats also have some colorful lights fitted.

Must do this activity if you are ever in Melaka. Very reasonable price on the tickets, a very informative cruise and the view during the cruise is really amazing. If its not much, I can say that you will know about the whole Melaka just by taking this less than an hour river cruise. The boat was slow not fast so we can enjoy our trip with relaxing and feels the environment. Can bring kids without any problem. Can view the places around. Worthwhile spending RM25 per head for a refreshing 45 minutes trip. 👣 I love what they have done on both river banks. They kept the old homes and warehouses and converted them into fabulous riverside hotels, shops. cafes, eateries and street arts. 🥰👍🏻 Nice trip. Boat operators are very friendly. There's an explanation in both Malay and English to each site you are cruising next to. Loved the views. 😎✨ #celebratewithtrip #awesomepic #spooktaculartrip #summervacation #mytripvlog #malaccariver #malacca #bestview #best_trip_by_trip

You have to do this when you're in Melaka!! I would recommend taking the night cruise as they surrounding building , bridges etc. are all colorfully lighted up and you have a better experience strolling down the river. You can also see (and wave) to the people strolling by the riverside or having their drinks/meal at the many outlets along the river. There are few locations in town to take the river cruise, however if you're driving i would advice taking it from Taman Rempah jetty. There are ample parking space and you don't have to worry to find parking space for your vehicle!! #riverview #malaccariver #heartofmalacca #malacca #rivercruise

#passionpassport Taking Melaka River Cruise is much less exhausting and it’d allow us to serenely took in the sights and sounds as we’d cruise by. There were some fascinating bridges framing out our experience such as Pedestrian Bridge at Kampung Morten, Kg. Jawa Bridge, etc. Along the river, shop and restaurant owners have allowed their walls to be painted with bright, artistic murals. Many of these wall arts are giant illustrations depicting Malaysian culture and history. It’s truly a beautiful sight seeing these vintage shophouses transform into a canvas, and accentuates the importance of art in preserving Malaysia’s heritage. It was an enjoyable experience traveling on the cruise across the River of Melaka. As soon as the ride was over, we were safely dropped at the place where we headed the cruise. We slowly started taking a walk and travel towards our next destination which was in Red Square. Operating hours daily: 9:00AM TO 11:00PM

A boat cruise along the malacca river through a series of malacca’s heritage history. Malacca also pump in a series of arts painting on its building for tourism. Enjoy the colourful LEDs lightings and the breeze of calmness of the wind. Definitely make you sleep! haha! Great to try ! Totally recommended 💯 #staycation #themepark #beachlife

Jetty Location: Muara Jetty, next to Quayside Heritage Centre. Highlights: The Melaka River Cruise is a great way to see the sights of Melaka at a leisurely pace, in comfort and without breaking the bank. The Melaka River is where the town began and it has played a key role in Melaka's colourful history. Taking a river cruise is like seeing Melaka from the back door. 🤩 The whole river cruise will take around 40 minutes. It operates from 9am to 11pm daily but I would definitely recommend you to take the cruise at night, in order to enjoy the beautiful night view of Melaka city. 🥰 Ticket price: RM25 per adults, RM15 for kids below 12 years old. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #createwithtrip #culturewalk #naturewonder #melakatrip #awesomepic

it's full of historical monuments both sides of the river. it's clean and peaceful and nice to see boats to and fro in the river. A must thing to do when you are in Melaka#
