Heading on a cruise from Singapore is usually seen as a mighty atas getaway, at a sizable price tag to match. And then there are cruisegoers who enjoy the activities onboard, but don’t really fancy disembarking at various overseas destinations – be it out of sheer laziness, or because there is just so much to eat and do within the cruise itself.
To solve this pickle, World Legacy Cruise sails from Singapore at budget-friendly prices and anchors around 30 minutes from shore. That way, you’ll be able to savour all the key activities and indulgences of a cruise – including chilling on a deck with a crisp sea breeze and the sound of waves surrounding you – without the commitment nor price of venturing abroad.

Before we delve into the highlights onboard, we first need to establish the types of tickets that World Legacy Cruise offers. Apart from tickets that grant you overnight stays in cabins and suites, there is also an option for a Day Pass which gives you access to all the activities and facilities onboard – just without a room to crash in. Here’s the price breakdown:
| Stay/room type | Price |
| Day Pass | $38/pax |
| Interior Upper/Lower Bunk (Single Beds) | $90/night |
| Interior Quad Cabin | $180/night |
| Oceanview Upper/Lower Bunk (Single Beds) | $120/night |
| Oceanview Premier Queen Loft | $200/night |
| Oceanview Quad Cabin | $220/night |
| VIP Suite | $300/night |
Besides giving you access to roam around freely on the cruise and partake in all manner of activities, the Day Pass also includes meals. Pretty good value for money at just $38, considering that’s the cost of a restaurant dinner for 1 nowadays.

And if it’s an overnight getaway you’re after, a room from $90/night is quite the steal when it comes to seafaring holidays. When you’re feeling a little boujee, go for their VIP Suite which will set you back $300/night. Time for a romantic getaway where you’ll get to wake up to ocean views and a paid-for breakfast buffet!

World Legacy Cruise sails from the Singapore Cruise Centre at HarbourFront. About 30 minutes in, the ship will be anchored and passengers can live it up and make merry, soaking in the sea views from day to night.
Just because World Legacy Cruise doesn’t operate like the traditional cruise liners we’re familiar with, doesn’t mean it’s short of activities onboard that will allow you to unwind, get lit, and everything else in between.
First up, everyone’s favourite aspect of going on a cruise: pigging out on sumptuous food. World Legacy Cruise offers full-day dining as well as buffet access for passengers with Stay Packages. That is, those who are staying overnight and have gotten a cabin. And as we mentioned above, Day Pass passengers will also get to redeem meals with their tickets.

Dining options include a 24-hour casual eatery for cruisegoers to pop in for some nosh any time of the day, an international buffet, as well as a premium Chinese restaurant if you’re in the mood for some elevated fare. There’s also a bar where you can get your tipple and cocktails, accompanied by a litty atmosphere – which brings us to our next point: entertainment.
Several spaces around the cruise come alive every evening, transformed from chill daytime hangout spots into rousing social hubs. Think live music and nightly performances for passengers to get their groove on, along with themed social events and doomzi doomzi party nights.

For the perfect yin and yang balance, unwind at a variety of sun decks, relaxation zones, and quiet corners spread across the cruise ship. Nothing gets you in zen mode quite like a yoga sesh set against an ocean backdrop, and even just lounging on a pool chair as the waves crash around you can rejuvenate you to the max.
The World Legacy Cruise has since set sail, and although it’s mighty affordable, the reception from vacationers was mostly negative. First, passengers complained about delayed check-in times and noted that the lifts on the cruise were not working. Moreover, a passenger reported experiencing brownish tap water when using the sink, and the food option on board was lacking.
However, not all was doom and gloom. On the bright side, the casino area of the ship was fully operational. Also, another guest noted that they had a pleasant experience on World Legacy Cruise’s maiden voyage, stating that although there were some issues that popped up during her stay, the crew members were patient, gracious, and attended to their needs swiftly. This guest also found the lounge area to be classy and elegant, and enjoyed the performances of the live band and resident singers.
So, when does World Legacy Cruise start setting sail? Well, the cruise embarked on their maiden voyage on 23rd December 2025, and you can purchase tickets now for future stays.

Being able to chillax, feast, and party it up on a cruise from just $38 is tough to beat. And even if you’re staying the night, cabins start from a modest $50. Think of it as a floating staycay with priceless ocean views and vibes, priced cheaper than a typical hotel staycation, to boot.
Those who are planning a cruise with pals or family will be able to get even more bang for their buck. Case in point: booking the Interior Quad Cabin, which costs $180/night and accommodates up to 4, would bring the price down to just $45/pax.
