Highly recommend - very peaceful - good fun

Melfun1, Jan 2023

We were a group of 2 couples and had a fantastic tour. Kevin was excellent - he went through all the safety checks and how to paddle/steer the kayaks before we set off.. During the tour he was very informative and obviously passionate about the swamp land how changes in the environment can effect the mangroves. We have hired bikes and ridden around Palau Ubin many times. First time kayaking and it was so beautiful. Peaceful, the water was calm, the wildlife spotting was great and we had an excellent time. Highly recommend if you want to chill out for a couple of hours and just let your cares flow away!!

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Interesting day out on Pulau Ubin. Go early as bum boats get busy. We hired bikes for the morning and completed the cycle tracks before kayaking. Tom was really informative and the paddle was interesting.

Kyle, Aug 2017

Amazing kayaking tour. Very easy to get from downtown Singapore To changi ferry terminal changi jetty about 30 song dollars . Bum boat ride is 2 dollars to the island but go early as lines for boats will get long. And although it may not say it on viatour but bring extra clothes as it is recommend you get in the water to test your PFD. You dont have to but you should. Also wear plenty of sunscreen as it is a long trip. And bring some water and snacks. Afterwards rent a bike for the day and tour the island. Climb up the trails and take in the views. This island is beautiful. Definitely make it a day trip

Melanie_V, Feb 2014

Amazing, and excellent escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Didn't see many animals, only one monitor lizard but really enjoyed the peace of the mangroves. I was alone with the guide on my tour due to the Chinese New Year so it was a little quicker than the estimated time but was amazing.
