About Melaka River Cruise

The standard cruise lasts about 45 minutes and covers around 9 km of the Melaka River, passing the Stadthuys, the back of Jonker Street, painted murals, a water wheel and the Malay houses of Kampung Morten. Boats are run by the state river and coast corporation, Perbadanan Sungai dan Pantai Melaka.

A hop-on hop-off ticket gives a day of rides between 14 jetties. The operator's site says its VIP and dinner cruise is temporarily unavailable while boats are serviced. Prices are from Tourism Melaka; check at the counter before you queue.
