TOUR OVERVIEW
If you run when you travel, you know how it usually goes. You wake up early in a new city and stop at every junction to check your phone for the next turn. You get your run in, but you barely see the city. On this guided Singapore running tour, a local guide plans the route and leads the way, so you can look around while the city wakes up.
Meet your licensed local guide at City Hall MRT Exit A for a 6.30am start. You run across the historic Padang and past the Esplanade as the sky brightens over Marina Bay. The route passes the Merlion and Marina Bay Sands, loops through Gardens by the Bay and crosses the Helix Bridge before finishing back where you started.
The route is already planned, so all you need to do is lace up. You'll be done before the heat arrives, with photos from the bay to prove you were there.
✨ Why Join This Run:
Sunrise Over Marina Bay
Your guide leads the way from the Padang to the bay, so you can keep your eyes on the skyline instead of your phone.
Just Follow the Purple Shirt
A 6.5km loop planned by local runners, mostly on wide promenades with almost no road crossings.
Easy Pace, Good Company
You run at a relaxed, conversational pace in a small group of up to 15 travellers. Nobody is racing.
🤲🌍 Every direct booking supports our #MonsterImpact initiative, funding social causes and sustainable tourism across Asia. Travel responsibly and make every step count.

What Our Travelers Say
Left my phone in my pocket. I usually spend the first run of a trip staring at a map. This time I just followed the guide from City Hall and got to look up for a change.
The stretch over Helix Bridge was my favourite. I'd walked across it the night before and it felt like a different place that early.

Worth the early alarm. I nearly rolled over when my alarm went off. Glad I didn't. We were by the Merlion just as the sky started to lighten, and I kept turning my head to look across the water.

Marina Bay Sunrise Run with Your Local Guide
The gardens were so quiet. I'd only seen Gardens by the Bay in the afternoon. It was so quiet on the run that I could hear our shoes on the path.
Bring your own water. I went through most of my bottle by the time we got back to City Hall.

Easy pace, even for me. I run a bit at home and was worried I'd be the slow one. Once we got going by the Padang I could chat without getting out of breath. Six and a half kilometres went by quicker than I expected.

Still had the whole day ahead. Booked this for my first morning in Singapore. Meeting at the MRT was easy, and by the time I was back looking for breakfast I'd already seen Marina Bay Sands from both sides of the bay.
