Beautiful and relaxing - The open air deck was perfect. We loved seeing the sites. The buffet was well maintained and servers were very attentive. The live music was outstanding. It was our second dinner cruise but our favorite

Beautiful cruise to see Bangkok at night. - Lovely cruise to see the city at night from the river. Great service and food on board, drinks reasonably priced. Live music to keep the energy levels up. Really had a wonderful time so highly recommend.

Nice trip - We had a very good time on the cruise but our one complaint would be that although we ate quite soon after getting on the boat - we found the food could have been hotter as it was only luke warm but we still enjoyed our time

Nice way to spend and evening and see some beautiful sights on the river. - A very nice evening. Food was good and plenty of it. Tables were not squashed together we had plenty of room to get up for our food. Staff were friendly and efficient with drink orders and clearing dirty plates. Only downside for me was the loud music meaning we couldn't easily talk to each other.

Nice dinner, food ok - The views from the boat were great. We were seated on the top deck near the front. The buffet was alright, though I expected more for the price. The desserts were a bit cheap in my opinion. One bridge has very little space between the boat and bridge beams, that was very cool to experience on the upper deck! Nice entertainment as well.

Get there early or be disappointed - If you’re not there early you’re likely to be sent indoors or down on the bottom deck next to the smoking area!!! You’ll not see the live show or music. Everyone pays the same but the experience can be different. The food is although plentiful.

It was ok not great - This experience was mediocre. For the price we paid I feel it wasn’t worth it. It had a senior citizen vibe. Music was old. Food was ok not great. No drinks included. Not even sodas or coffee or tea. Next time I’d try a different boat.

Poor trip, book with an operator that allows you to select a seat. Being inside is an inferior experience waste of money - There are lots of these boats offering cruises leaving from different piers. You have to book in inside the River city complex. We were on of the first to do so, I thought it would result in a good table but they were already allocated. The arrival of the boat was impressive, music staff stood to attention on the upper deck as it pulled in. The jetty embarkation was disorganised with lots of people trying to get on. Once onboard I was shown to our table it was in the middle of the boat with the band on the floor below. Within seconds we were pointed to the buffet and given drinks menus. The food was ok not too spicy however we then noticed people with seafood etc they had gone to another area on the boat downstairs. The set up should have been explained!!! The boat does not leave for around 30 mins by which time you realise that you can’t see very little due to reflections on the glass. The update its seating was fully allocated so the only option is to stand. Given that we booked months in advance and were first in the queue I fail to understand how I found ourselves inside the bot which is no where near the same experience. There was no explanation as to what you were passing on the river so the whole thing was a flop for us.
