Officially launch in 30th August 2003 by the Prime Minister Dato Seri Dr Mahatir Bin Mohamed, Cruise Tasik Putrajaya (CTP) is an initiative by Perbadanan Putrajaya, the city's authority and administrator.

As the cruise service provider in Putrajaya, CTP was set up to tap into the recreational potential of the unique 650-hectare man-made lake and wetlands, which spans across the city's landscape. CTP also serves to complement the city's tourism appeal, allowing visitors to see and marvel at the many stunning sights and landmarks from a unique perspective.

Cruise services operated by CTP include sightseeing tours by perahu boats or air-conditioned cruise boats that also offer a dining cruise experience. Other tours include love boat ride, cocktail cruise, tea cruise, lakeside dinner, party/karaoke cruise and private boat charters for functions and events. These types of cruises includes the 45 minutes Belimbing (Starfruit) Sightseeing Cruise, the 25 minutes Dondang Sayang Perahu Ride and the Daun (Leaf) Dining Cruise.

Sights and landmarks covered by CTP cruises include Putra Mosque, Darul Ehsan Palace, Ministry of Finance, Seri Wawasan Bridge, Millennium Monument, Palace of Justice, Seri Saujana Bridge, Perdana Leadership Foundatio, Putrajaya International Convention Centre, Seri Gemilang Bridge, Perdana Putra (Prime Minister's office) and Putra Bridge.

The CTP office and ticketing counter is located at Jeti Putra, underneath Putra Bridge. Enterance to Jeti Putra is from the Dataran Putra, where the Putra Mosque and Prime Minister's office is located.
