Malacca River Cruise

A 45-minute cruise along the Malacca River from the Quayside Hotel jetty passes under 40 murals painted on the river embankment walls, through the historic Dutch and Chinese quarters, and along the gentrified riverside cafe district that has developed along the banks of the river that was once the commercial artery of the medieval trading city. Night cruises, when the embankment murals are illuminated, are particularly atmospheric.
