Worth it even if you are... - Worth it even if you are solo traveller. Food is good and view is nice. Some bridges the dinner cruise goes under you can almost touch the ceiling under the bridge.

River dinner cruise - A fantastic boat with very attentive staff, the food and entertainment were great, the views at night with the lightning were stunning. A wonderful way to spend a few hours on the water.

A fabulous trip, highly recommended - A fabulous trip, highly recommended. We booked this for our last night. We were staying nearby, so we’re able to walk there. We were seated inside, which was a lot quieter and less rowdy than outside tables, although the view wasn’t as good. We were able to go outside to view and take photos, but I felt I was encroaching on other peoples space, so swings and roundabouts as where is best to sit, but as we didn’t have a choice, make sure you put in a request for your choice. The food was plentiful and excellent quality with plenty of choice. Drinks are additional cost, but not expensive. Waitress service was good and friendly. Entertainment was also good, and lots of dancing on deck during the second half of the cruise.

Go with an empty stomach - I’ve done this same river cruise before this same company and will continue to do it with them. The quality and quantity of the food is amazing, the live entertainment was great. A good way to see Bangkok and enjoy an evening in this beautiful city.

10/10 would book again! - Such a lovely experience! Prompt, picked us up and dropped us off in style with music playing the whole time. The food was good! So many options, a Thai buffet, sushi, seafood, a pasta bar (made by chefs in front of you!) and a fruit and dessert bar. Drinks were so affordable and delicious cocktails, along with a selection of so many options. Staff was so attentive and lovely, they take pictures for you, a very memorable experience :)

Nice experience unless you get the table close to loudspeakers - The cruise itself was very nice with a lot of spectacular views from the river. The dinner was in the form of buffet with wide variety of options. Nice live music was also played. However, I was lacking information that Viator vouchers is not sufficient to board the ship until I was stopped at the boarding and sent back to the adjacent shopping mall to exchange them for the paper tickets of the cruise operator. Tables are pre-assigned so it does not make sense to be there earlier to secure a better table. We got a table at the loudspeakers, which made us deaf after 5 minutes. Luckily we got another one as the tour was not full. One has to remember that the tour ends after the adjacent shopping mall closes so that the area is becoming quite remote and finding a taxi or tuk-tuk might be challenging.

Don't do it noisy& medeoca at best - Well what can I say emm. The staff were nice&friendly the food was OK given the reasonable price I pain £47 but it wasn't as say put it , luxury my idea & there idea of luxury differ greatly lol.the entertainment was loud but bearable but when u add on all the other boats ( lots of them) all competing to play there music louder than the other boats it was unbearable, add in the development fumes from the mony other boats made the river air toxic as for the mutual sights they said u would see , if u couny a climb of a thi temperature roof top a cut rally sight then go for it u the pass under bland concreat road bridges very bland. But if ur just into tacky loud and common boat trip the trip onthis boat is for u. As for me and others it was not a good experience & was desperat to get of. But all of the dinner river cruse will be the same as ther is zero diferance between any of them so it u want to do it go for the very cheapest 1u can find not the 5star 1i chosen it was far from 5star more a 2/3star trip advisor we'll what can I say could do better as I was told at school lol
