Amazing Happy Hours on the River! - Absolutely loved the free-flow beer setup—being able to serve myself whenever I wanted was a game changer! No waiting around, just grab and go. It made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun, like hosting my own private party. Great value and a perfect vibe for beer lovers!

Lovely Night on the River - This was my second time on the Carnival Cruise and I really enjoyed it again. The dancers were lively, the singer was great, and the whole show was very entertaining. The buffet was nice, and the beef noodle soup is still my favorite dish. What I liked the most was sitting outside and watching the Bangkok night view — the lights along the river are beautiful. It was a nice experience and I would recommend it.

We had a great time - Highly recommended experience for dinner in Bangkok, very nice views with the city illuminated and the buffet theme with free beer rod seemed ideal. Then the show is very entertaining, 5 girls and boys dancing, taking pictures and a singer of international themes make it a lively trip. Spotlights from the boat illuminating the sky, is one of the ones we liked the most when you see the rest of boats passing by the river. The price is half of what the agency asked for and not including drink, so we totally recommend it.

Fabulous - Excellent 2 hour dinner cruise including great entertainment and music - buffet had great selection of food options for all - free beer included but cash bar. Saw some of the Bangkok sites which were beautifully lit at night - we paid about £35pp and worth every penny.

Generally fine except for beer that didn't have an open bar and milk, which also didn't have - WELL: Boat, Tour, Staff Service. They go through the tables constantly. Contact customer if delayed. Good animation with singer and team of dancers. BAD: in advertising I put unlimited beer. If you ask for it, you pay for it in part. Coffee, no way to get milk. If you want it alone, fine, if not too.

Good experience - I imagine it will depend on the arch, there are many; but the experience itself is very good. Good views, an acceptable dinner and multicultural music to dance and have fun

It was just alright. - The view was great. Once we moved back from the entertainment, it was more enjoyable. We were in front and couldn’t hear ourselves think. There was a mad dash to the food and since the singer didn’t announce it in English, we didn’t know when to get in line like the others. So, we waited for the lines to die down. By the time the downstairs lines were starting to die down, they took the food away. I barely got any food for how much I paid. They should release the tables by section so you’re not fighting your way to get food. Everything was alright. 3/5 stars

Disappointing!!! - We purchased the dinner cruise with a buy 3 get 1 free special. They ended up telling us they had to charge for my 3 year old daughter because they didn’t believe she was 3 and never gave us the 4th person free. The boat is docked in a secluded part of town. The show is all lady boys and young men, so if that’s not your thing, I would avoid this dinner cruise as there are so many other options.
