About Melaka / Malacca

Melaka, also known as Malacca, is a beautiful historical port city and UNESCO World Heritage Site for Culture, just 150km or 2 hours drive south of Kuala Lumpur . 

Melaka is known for the Peranakans, the term used to describe descendants of mostly early Chinese settlers of South East Asia and later Arab and Dutch. 

The highlight of Melaka is the beautiful mix of Peranakan and Malay cuisine and preserved historical buildings from the colonial times under the Dutch and British.

Top things to do in Melaka

1. visit red square, stadthuys & christ church.

Melaka’s beautiful Red Square, also called the Dutch Square, is the icon of the city and houses colonial structures like the Stadthuys, Christ Church, and the Queen Victoria Fountain. The bordeaux red buildings are the most picturesque spot in Melaka, and the square is portrayed on all Melaka postcards .

Red Square’s Stadthuys is the oldest remaining Dutch colonial building in the Orient , which was first used as the government seat by the Dutch and later the British.

2. Eat all the food at Jonker Street Night Market

A must-visit in Melaka is the Jonker Street Night Market which operates on a three-day-a-week system on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday .

Since 2010, Jonker Street Night Market has been an icon of this historical city, offering a great night out for exploring the culinary delights, local handicrafts, and culture through its 450 and counting stalls .

Entrance and welcome sign at Jonker Street Night Market, Melaka (Malacca), Malaysia

We loved the food at Jonker Street Night Market, and some of the best things were definitely: Coconut Ice Cream, Durian puff, Papaya salad, pure Mango smoothies, and veggie rolls.

Even though everyone (us included) focuses mainly on the food at Jonker Street Night Market, you can also find an immense range of other stalls. There are stalls with local handicrafts, clothing, packaged snacks, herbs, spices, teas, jewelry, toys, and souvenirs. If you’re into tattoos, you can also get a temporary tattoo at one of the Henna stalls.

3. Cruise on the Melaka River

The best way to explore Melaka’s riverside is on the Melaka River Cruise, a 45 minutes round trip , costing 30RM (about $7) for foreigners and 25RM for local adults.

Melaka’s river cruise runs daily between 9 am and 11 pm and the best time to go on the river cruise is towards the sunset as you watch the city’s countless beautiful lights turn on.

You can buy tickets for the Melaka River Cruise right next to the tourist information center opposite Red Square or purchase them online.

4. Ride in a cyclo or trishaw

A very popular thing to do in Melaka is riding in the colorful and funky cyclos named trishaws.

The trishaw ride in Melaka lasts 1 hour and costs 40 Malaysian Ringgit (about $9) , and they take you around the central part of town.

The most popular time for taking a trishaw ride in Melaka seems to be at night when all the trishaws are glowing with lights. It’s also the time when the trishaws are playing very loud music from their onboard loudspeakers.

Trishaw Rental Rate sign in Melaka, Malaysia

We didn’t go for a ride, as we loved going around on foot, but we can imagine it being a fun activity.

Note: We’re not sure, but it seems like the music they play on the trishaws is adjusted to the people on the trishaw, so for example, we’ve heard Indian music played for Indians, and Chinese music played for Chinese.

5. Visit St Paul’s Church

St Paul’s Church in Melaka, built in 1521, is located on the small hill above the Red (Dutch) Square and is the oldest church building in Malaysia and South East Asia .

Even though it’s not entirely preserved (the roof is missing), it does contain the tombstones of influential people from those times that were previously found scattered around the area.

St Paul’s Church in Melaka, Malaysia

And right in front of the church, you will also find an old white lighthouse built much later in 1849.

From the hill where St Paul’s Church is, you can arguably have the best view of Melaka and even see the sea.

6. Check out A Famosa

Right under St Paul’s hill, you can find A Famosa, the remains of the old Dutch fortress .

7. Find the street art

Melaka, along with Penang, holds an immense amount of street art that is waiting for you to be discovered.

Melaka’s street art project helped transform many of the old forgotten streets to become the centerpieces of tourist attractions.

Arijana Tkalcec by the murals along Melaka's river

You can find murals in many locations spread out around Melaka’s downtown. The most known street art spots in Melaka are My Kiehl’s Heritage, street art along the river, “The Well” on Jalan Hang Kasturi, and the art on Jalan Kampung Pantai street.

“The Well,” Jalan Hang Kasturi street, and Jalan Kampung Pantai street are all right next to each other , and the best way to find all of them is to just write “The Well street art” on Google Maps . This area is also the most interesting because it portrays lifelike murals of local life.

Note: Some street art might not look like in our photos or photos of others online when you come, as they do deteriorate through time.

8. Enjoy delicious Melaka food

One of the most important things to do in Melaka is to taste all the delicious food, especially the local Nyonya cuisine, the fusion of local Malaysian and Indonesian food with Chinese and later Indian cuisine.

We really loved all the food we tried in Melaka, and some of the best dishes we had were Nyonya Laksa (spicy noodle dish) and Nyonya Cendol (a delicious dessert).

9. Visit the floating Melaka Straits Mosque

The beautiful “floating” Melaka Straits Mosque is about a 15-minute drive from the center, and it’s pretty unique, as it looks like it’s floating when it’s high tide .

And if you visit when it’s low tide, you might get the chance to even go down to the “beach” right next to it. We saw many photos online of that, and it looks super cool. But, unfortunately, we weren’t so lucky.

The mosque is open from 5 am until late at night, so you can visit during sunrise or sunset .

Melaka Straits Mosque visiting tips

Although the Melaka Straits Mosque is a bit out from the city, you can easily reach it with a taxi or, better yet, by booking a Grab car.

And it’s not hard to get a Grab ride back either, as some reviews on Google say (that it’s so far away and remote that nobody will come and pick you up). 😉 We had a fantastic Grab driver who shared our love for Vietnam pick us up in a few minutes after requesting a ride.

Dress code: Before entering the Melaka Straits Mosque, women have to cover their hair, arms, and legs, and men are also provided with a robe to cover their legs in case they are wearing shorts.

All the clothing which you use for covering is provided for free.

10. Visit Cheng Hoon Teng Temple

The Cheng Hoon Teng Temple in Melaka is the oldest traditional Chinese Buddhist temple in all of Malaysia , and its details are genuinely remarkable. We loved observing all the decorations on the roof, walls, and inside the temple.

No matter if you’re religious or not, we’d say it’s well worth a visit, as it’s an integral part of Melaka’s history and an insight into the culture of the Chinese community here.

Cheng Hoon Teng Temple in Melaka interior

11. Stroll through Tokong Street

In Tokong Street, where the Cheng Hoon Temple is, you can also find the Sri Poyyatha Vinayaga Moorthy Temple, the oldest existing Hindu temple in Malaysia, and the Kampung Kling Mosque.

It’s great to see the diversity and harmony between the different communities in Melaka.

Kampung Kling mosque in Melaka, Malaysia

12. Observe Melaka from above

Along with St Paul’s hill above the Red Square in Melaka, you can observe Melaka from the Taming Sari Revolving Tower and The Shore Sky Tower .

The best one, according to most people, is the Taming Sari Revolving Tower, which supposedly gets you a better 360 view, unlike The Shore Sky Tower.

Taming Sari Revolving Tower 360 observatory in Melaka, Malaysia

We planned on visiting the Taming Sari Revolving Tower, but in the end, we didn’t have enough time to do it.

13. Visit Kampung Morten village

Kampung Morten village, the only remaining traditional village of the first Melaka settlers , is only about a 20-minute walk from Jonker Street and Red Square. The houses are nicely decorated, have yards full of greenery and flowers, and now serve as homestays.

You can see parts of the Kampung Morten village on the Melaka River Cruise if you don’t plan to visit it specifically, and that’s what we did.

Kampung Morten village entrance in Melaka, Malaysia

14. Enjoy food and drinks by the river

Melaka’s riverside is filled with small cafes and restaurants where you can enjoy some food and drinks and is especially alive in the evenings.

We love every city with a river and Melaka is one of them, especially because you can walk so close to it.

15. Visit a cool cafe

Melaka offers plenty of cool-looking cafes with creative interiors and great food and drinks, like The Daily Fix Cafe, The Stolen Cup, The Baboon House, and Calanthe Art Cafe.

Coffee and dessert at The Stolen Cup in Melaka, Malaysia

We enjoyed dinner at the Geographer Cafe, which looked especially great during that time. And we had a delicious vegetarian Tom Yam here, and we miss it so much that we would return to Melaka just for that. It was served in a coconut, and it was so so delicious!

16. Learn about history at Melaka Sultanate Palace Museum

History lovers should check out the Melaka Sultanate Palace Museum with a collection of traditional art, costumes, jewelry, weapons, and other interesting historical artifacts.

The Melaka Sultanate Palace Museum was built in 1986 as a modern reconstruction of a palace of the Melaka Sultanate based on the historical information gathered from the Malay Annals, the literary work of the Malay maritime empire composed between the 15th and 16th centuries.

17. Visit Flor de la Mar – the maritime museum

Not far from the Red Square is the Maritime Museum, which is actually housed in a replica of the ancient Portuguese ship Flor de la Mar.

We didn’t end up visiting inside, but it looks cool from the outside, so it’s worth making the short walk down to it. And if you’re going for the Melaka River Cruise, the jetty is right next to it.

18. Visit Datuk Wira Dr. Gan Boon Leong’s bodybuilding statues

The quirkiest attraction in Melaka is definitely the statues portraying the father of Malaysian bodybuilding, Dr. Gan Boon Leong, and a counterpart to Arnold Schwarzenegger.

We forgot to take a photo of one of the statues we passed right next to Jonker Street, but they’re big and golden.

19. Observe the wildlife

It might come as a surprise, but Melaka offers quite an interesting collection of animals. The most interesting ones are the huge monitor lizards that are cousins of the scary Komodo Dragons .

You will find the monitor lizards all along the Melaka river : below the bridge at the Red Square, swimming in the river, down at the river close to St Francis Xavier Church, and further up towards Kampung Morten village.

Seeing giant monitor lizards in Melaka was a huge surprise, as before we came, we only heard of otters being present on the riverside. And even though we really looked forward to seeing otters on our 4 or 5 walks along the river, we didn’t see any in the end!

More things to do in Melaka

Baba & nyonya heritage museum.

Visit the Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum to get an insight into the local Peranakan culture and history.

Buy your Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum Tickets on Tripcarte.

Pantai Klebang Sand Dunes

The sand dunes of Melaka at Pantai Klebang are nothing special, but they would serve as a great spot to watch the sunset .

Jonker Street Hawker Centre

As we were busy going around other places and visited the Jonker Street Night Market three times, we didn’t end up seeing the Hawker Centre.

Melaka Waterparks

You can find the A Famosa Waterpark next to A Famosa, which we didn’t have the chance to visit, but it seems like it offers some great rides.

And there’s another popular waterpark called Bayou Lagoon Water Park, a bit further out from the city.

Skytrex Adventure Melaka

We only heard about the Skytrex Adventure park after we left Melaka, and we’re so sad we didn’t go as it looks like a fun, adrenaline-pumping activity.

Best time to visit Melaka

Melaka has a lot of rainy, humid days all year, but it is still great to visit year-round , and if you’d like the sunniest and driest month, go in February.

We visited Melaka at the beginning of July, and the weather was a mix of sun and clouds, with some days having rain in the afternoon. And it was just fine, as we did most of our exploring in the mornings.

Beautiful bridge above the river in Melaka, Malaysia

The best place to stay in Melaka is right in the center , as almost all attractions will be easy to reach on foot.

Many travelers to Melaka want to stay next to the river, and there are limited options you can choose from. However, these are the accommodations we found on the riverside that have good reviews, and we would recommend staying in:

  • Casa del Rio Melaka (5-star, resort-like hotel)
  • Vspace Guesthouse and Cafe (capsule hotel, right on the river)
  • Luxury on Melaka River (luxury 2-bedroom apartment overlooking the river)
  • Leju 21 (holiday home for 4 people, right next to the river)

Murals along the riverside in Melaka, Malaysia

We made a mistake and stayed outside the city center, so each time we went to the center, we had to book a Grab ride which took about 10 to 15 minutes. It felt like a nuisance, especially during the weekend when the Jonker Street Night Market takes place, so it’s much harder to book a ride; you have to wait longer, and there are traffic jams.

Melaka’s cuisine is easy to explore because all restaurants are right in the city’s center. You can find all kinds of cuisines from Indian, local Malay, fusion Nyonya cuisine, and Western restaurants.

Nyonya Cendol preparation at Christina EE Pineapple Tarts & Nyonya Cendol, Melaka, Malaysia

As mentioned above, definitely try to plan your visit around the weekend, so you can visit the night market, which offers a great selection of delicious dishes.

Dishes you should try in Melaka:

  • Nyonya Laksa
  • Nyonya Cendol
  • Nyonya Kuih
  • Popiah rolls

Nyonya Cendol in Melaka, Malaysia

Places we recommend for food in Melaka are:

  • Geographer cafe (various amazing dishes, including vegetarian options)
  • Christina EE Pineapple Tarts & Nyonya Cendol
  • Selvam Restaurant for delicious Indian food (try the banana leaf curry)

The best places for vegetarian food in Melaka are:

  • Shui Xian Su Shi Yuan Vegetarian (has Nyonya Laksa!)
  • Mei Lin Vegetarian Restaurant
  • Vege Good Vegetarian Restaurant
  • Hui Yuan Vegetarian Restaurant
  • Anthony Vegetarian Restaurant

Visiting Melaka from Kuala Lumpur for a weekend is easy as it takes only 2 hours by car, bus, or train (150km) for less than $5.

We recommend coming to Melaka from Kuala Lumpur with a bus/van, as they’re super comfortable, and they drop you off at either your hotel or the central bus station.

Bus Ticket

Book your bus/train/taxi tickets from Kuala Lumpur to Melaka on 12go.

On the other hand, you can also get to the Melaka train station from Kuala Lumpur by train in 2 hours. But as you arrive at the Batang Melaka train station, that’s actually a 1-hour drive away from central Melaka, it kind of doesn’t make much sense.

How to get to Melaka from Singapore

The best way to get to Melaka from Singapore is by bus in 4 hours for about $30 . 

Book your bus tickets from Singapore to Melaka on 12go.

How to get around Melaka

The easiest way to get around Melaka is on foot as most attractions are in the central part of the city, with only one or two requiring booking a taxi or Grab car.

How many days in Melaka is enough?

Two days is enough for most visitors to Melaka , but you can also visit Melaka on a day trip from Kuala Lumpur as it’s only a two-and-a-half-hour drive away.

Of course, you can also stay longer in Melaka (we stayed for almost a week as we took things slow), but usually, a few days is enough. We wanted to visit the Jonker Street Night Market more than once (we went three times), so it was perfect for us.

Prices in Melaka

Melaka is an affordable destination for most travelers, as the prices are much lower than in, for example, Kuala Lumpur . Of course, it also depends on the places you stay and eat at, but the prices seem pretty fair, even for upscale restaurants.

Matej Špan happy to be back to the veggie roll stand at Jonker Street Night Market, Melaka (Malacca), Malaysia

Is Melaka a safe destination?

Melaka, like Malaysia, is a very safe destination to visit , the people are welcoming, and the atmosphere is pleasing. And it’s one of Malaysia’s most popular tourist destinations, so that already says enough. 🙂

Is Melaka worth visiting?

Melaka is definitely worth visiting as a visit to Malaysia can’t be complete without visiting Melaka due to its fantastic food, street art, and bustling night market.

We hope we inspired you to visit Melaka!

melaka river cruise klook

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.

A few decades ago the river was a stinking waterway lined with decaying houses on stilts and the untidy rear side of crumbling shophouses.

In recent years it has had a major facelift . Yes, there has been a lot of new development but at the same time an effort has been made to preserve many of the historic buildings and bridges along the river.

Even the newer buildings have been painted with colourful murals depicting different aspects of Malacca's rich history and culture.

Location to Catch the Melaka River Cruise

As at 2024, there are now only  two jetties , one at each end of the route. It appears that the one at The Shore mentioned below is no longer operational You can begin the cruise from either jetty 1 or 2:

  • Taman Rempah Jetty (or Spice Garden Jetty) , where a small spice garden is located, next to the Hang Jebat Bridge linking Jalan Tun Mutahir to Jalan Tun Sri Lanang. From here the cruise travels downstream as far as Muara jetty where the boat turns around and takes you back to the starting point. The  round trip takes 45 minutes  and covers  9 km . You will hear the  recorded commentary  as far as Muara jetty. On the way back you might be treated to Abba's greatest hits or a similar soundtrack.
  • Melaka River Square Jetty , next to Quayside Heritage Centre, close to the Maritime Museum easily recognisable by the replica of the Portuguese ship Flor De la Mar. From here the cruise takes you upstream as far as Taman Rempah jetty where the boat turns around and brings you back to the starting point. The round trip takes 45 minutes and covers 9 km . The boat's recorded commentary will begin on the return leg of your journey (from Taman Rempah to Muara Jetty).
  • The Shore Jetty , next to The Shore Melaka, a retail, hotel and residential development containing attractions such as Shore Oceanarium , Sky Tower , Toy Museum and 3D Interactive Park. Melaka Pirate Park, a small amusement park is also located nearby. Again the river cruise lasts 45 minutes round trip.

Although I saw some posters advertising a hop-on, hop-off route, that option does not appear to be available at present and you can only do a round trip with no disembarking en-route . That's a pity.

If you are driving to Melaka you will discover that finding a parking space in the town centre is not easy. If you just want to do the river cruise I would suggest you catch the boat at Taman Rempah jetty because they have a large car park and it's free of charge.   Alternatively you can park at The Shore and board the river cruise here.

I have marked the three locations mentioned above on this map:

2024 Ticket Prices

Prices as at January 2024 are as follows:

  • MyKad holders pay RM 25 for adults and RM 15 for children aged 2 to 12. 
  • Foreigners have to pay a little more, RM 30 for adults and RM 25 for kids.
  • Free for children under 2 .

Get a 5% discount, save queuing and avoid disappointment by buying  online through Tripcarte's secure website with instant ticketing, fully refundable and hassle free e-tickets.

Operating Hours

The Melaka River Cruise is open daily from 9 am to 11:00 pm.

Boats depart roughly every 30 minutes.

Which is the better time to go, by day or by night? At night many of the sights alongside the river are illuminated with colourful lights. But on the other hand, during the day you will get a better view of the murals and other details. You are also more likely to spot one of the monitor lizards which frequent the river bank. Perhaps you should go at sunset so that you can see both day and night.

If you want to arrange a group outing or corporate event you can charter the whole 40 seat boat for RM 1,100.

For more details you can call the Melaka River Cruise company on 06 281 4322/23 during office hours.

The number for their Taman Rempah jetty is 06 286 1530.

  • Pirate Park . A modest funfair with a ferris wheel, swinging pirate ship, flying fox, rock climbing wall and trampoline.
  • Ghost Bridge of Melaka . Where Japanese soldiers during WWII dangled the decapitated heads of local Chinese businessman.
  • Kampung Jawa . A small residential and commercial area where descendants of the original Javanese settlers still maintain some of their traditions.

The River That Flowed Through Time Take a cruise through time in Malaysia’s most historic city, Melaka. Even before the beginning of the Melaka Sultanate in the 15th century, and through the years of foreign rule that occurred centuries after, the Melaka River flowed. It was there when the Portuguese built the A’ Famosa fort in 1511, when the Dutch erected the Stadthuys in 1888, and when the Japanese invaded Malaya in the Second World War.

The Melaka River was there to witness Independence from the British.

Its legacy still continues to flow till this day, in a period than the previous centuries. Contrary from what it was before as a vital trade route or a front to fend off invaders, the Melaka River is now home to the Melaka River Cruise.

This 45-minute boat ride cruising along the vintage Melaka River moves at a peaceful pace, allowing one to admire the breathtaking view of Melaka. It’s just one of things that travellers should not miss when visiting the state. From the modern local icons to rustic colonial landmarks, here are some of the things you’ll see on the Melaka River Cruise.

Melaka River Cruise

Historical Landmarks of Different Eras Till today, infrastructure from Melaka’s colonial past still remains standing. As arguably Malaysia’s most historic state, the preservation of such buildings is important in ensuring that history is protected and serves as an acknowledgement of Malaysia’s significant past.

Today, many tourists who flock to Melaka make it a point to visit these historical landmarks. It’s no surprise, as Melaka City has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008.

Some notable landmarks which you’ll be cruising by are the Stadthuys and Red Building established by the Dutch in 1888, the Church of St. Francis Xavier completed in 1856, and the Bastion Middleburg erected in 1660 to defend oncoming aggressors.

River Cruise Melaka

Melaka’s Modern Side As Melaka began to develop forward, new establishments were constructed without the need of compromising on any historical site.

From this, Melaka transformed into a unique blend of old and new, an intriguing juxtapose of history and modernization. Since then, Melaka has evolved into a bustling state.

Of all the exciting new come-ups that Melaka has, be sure to look out for The Shore Shopping Gallery located right at the river bend, the newly installed Melaka Malay Sultanate Water Wheel – which is the first and largest watermill in Malaysia, and the Eye on Melaka – a Ferris wheel on the banks of the Melaka river.

A Different Perspective It’s a different experience being in the crowd, and observing the crowd. Take the Melaka River cruise and see things from a different perspective. It is much less exhausting and it’ll allow you to serenely take in the sights and sounds as you cruise by. Idle away and gaze at the moving trishaws, the tourist crossing over bridges, and the picturesque shophouses as you spectate from a distance.

Iconic Bridges Perhaps not known to many, Melaka has some of the most historic bridges in Malaysia. While they are not as grand or as large as the Golden Gate Bridge or the Brooklyn Bridge, they have very interesting stories behind them. There are a number of bridges along Melaka River, but some of which you should take note of is the:

Tan Kim Seng Bridge – This is the bridge that connects the Melaka Clock Tower area to Jonker Street. The bridge is named after a wealthy Peranakan businessman that contributed greatly to the community. The bridge was built in 1862, but was destroyed 80 years later in 1942 by the British. It was rebuilt and restored later on after World War 2 ended.

Pasar Bridge – This bridge was built during the Portuguese rule around the 1500’s, and it links Kampung Hulu to the Old Central Market.

Melaka Cruise

Chan Boon Cheng Bridge – This bridge links the west and east side of the Melaka river bank, but it isn’t best known for that. Instead, it’s known for its gruesome past. During the Japanese Occupation, Japanese soldiers used to place the heads of executed victims at the foot of the bridge to instil fear into the locals. So, watch your head.

Aesthetic Wall Murals Be aesthetically pleased as you are treated with some of the most stunning wall murals you can find in Malaysia. 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 – from Malaysian local delights, traders, and such. It’s truly one of those beautiful sights to see these vintage shophouses transform into a canvas, accentuating the importance of art in preserving Malaysia’s heritage.

Conclusion The Melaka River Cruise is certainly a worthwhile trip for your visit to the historic city of Melaka. It is a river that is embedded in history and made this city a success in the first place. Popular with both local and international tourists, the journey is not difficult or strenuous, so it’s something that the whole family can do, from kids to seniors.

We do online purchase for the river cruise tickets before we travel to Melaka. It’s really out of our expectations that we still need to Q up for the entry and redeem our tickets. This make the online purchase meaningless and hopefully going to improve in future ! It’s worth to go for river cruise and the explanation is clear and it’s great to ride at the night time, we all enjoy a lot

{“rating”:”4″,”timing”:”spent 2 hours”,”suited”:”Solo Traveler”,”extra”:”The e-ticket, a FlexPlus, did not mention I must redeem it at the ticketing office for a physical ticket; just mentioned “Present your QR code to the staff, and that’s all” which is common and similar to other attractions in other countries. The staff controlling the entry to the long queue said ok to show the QR code. However, the staff at the boarding point for the boat asked for a physical ticket. So I left the queue to queue for 20min at the ticketing office and rejoined the 30min queue to board the boat. It was the peak school holiday season, so PLEASE state properly under “What to do next”.

Cuma, saya sangat geram kerana menunggu lama untuk naik Cruise. Mereka hanya gunakan 1 boat sahaja untuk jalan. Tunggu 30minit dah sampai baru kami naik. Sangat mengecewakan.

Their online ticket counter is less efficient than the on-site ticket purchase counter. Claiming online ticket is slower than people who purchase ticket on-site. However, the benefit is around 10% discount for purchasing ticket via tripcarte.asia. The Melaka River Cruise itself is great, waiting time is ok even on holiday!

I would suggest to take the cruise form Jeti Taman Rempah because it has spacious parking.

Then, make sure to arrive by 8pm if u don’t want to wait for too long.

Sit at the middle or back of the cruise. There are many times the river will splash into the cruise.

My children, wife and I enjoyed this river cruise a lot. The explanations given along 9km plus two ways really made the river cruise exciting. Night cruise surely an advantage with the lightings. The crews are friendly and helpful. Overall, strongly recommended to try the river cruise in Melaka.

This is my 2nd time taking the river cruise. Compared to my 1st, this time no explaination on the Melaka history (about kg morten, melaka tree, etc) via recording tape (played while cruising) or by the boat driver. Just a plain ride 35mins back and forth. Breezy night is truly a saver.

Evgeniia Moskaleva

Very pleased with your service

Saya rasa mungkin kebetulan jam 6.50 petang kami sampai cahaya senja menerangi awan, ketika kami menaiki bot jam 7 semuanya tampak sempurna masih belum gelap dan bot terus membelah sungai dengan sinaran lampu berwarna warni mengiringi perjalanan.. Pemandu yang cukup peramah buat kami lebih selesa..

Enjoyable n memorable one. Need to improve to provide the QR code scanner for online ticket purchase, to expedite boarding.

The trip itself was very enjoyable. Value for money. Clear narration of historicsl facts. However, getting there was not. We went to the Shore jetty to embark but found that it was closed and were then directed to Pengkalan Rama. With kids and the heat, that was troublesome.

RIZAL AHMAD

Best.. Anak² excited sgt.. Waktu Mlm pemandangan lebih menarik berbanding siang. Tp syg dlm bot Lampu biru ‘mencacatkan’ gambar yg diambil. 😥

Your Experience

Infrastructure from Melaka's colonial era is still in place today. Even today, over a longer length of time than the previous centuries, its legacy is still being felt. During this 45-minute boat ride, understand the history and the role the Melaka River played in it and witness the future with the modernization that has taken place.

As you cruise along the serene river, you will pass the Stadthuys and Red Building, which the Dutch built in 1888, as well as the 1856-completed Church of St. Francis Xavier. One will be able to see the Bastion Middleburg, which was built in 1660 to ward off approaching attackers.

Melaka underwent a remarkable transformation as new businesses were developed over time, creating an intriguing contrast between tradition and modernity. The Shore Shopping Gallery is situated next to these, precisely at the river's bend. Additionally, keep an eye out for the Eye on Melaka, a Ferris wheel located on the river's edge, and the Melaka Malay Sultanate Water Wheel, the country's first and biggest watermill. You will come across lovely bridges on this enjoyable river excursion. The Tan Kim Seng Bridge, which was first demolished and later rebuilt, will also be seen. Don't forget to see the Pasar and Chan Boon Cheng bridges.
