3.00Not recommended for those who don’t speak Thai as the staff working the check in desk do not speak English. We followed the instructions exactly as followed and the first employee told us go upstairs upon showing her our virtual and email confirmation. Finally went to another employee at the stand and she took the confirmation verified our names & provided us w/ stickers. This operator does not even market to a Western clientele or serve anything decent re: the buffet. The servers were extremely kind, and the show was very Bangkok. Great opportunity to capture some amazing views .. just don’t expect to eat w/ the unruly crowd rushing a subpar buffet. For what we paid the show and pictures we captured were worth it, Also beware it’s quite a distance away from the Central Park area if you are staying anywhere near there.
It's worth more than the price.

4.00On the day I attended, there were many customers and the food (Buffet) was crowded. I wasn't expecting much of the taste because it was a buffet, but in a good way it was disappointing. Many of the customers are Thai and Thai songs are often played. If you're going on this cruise, I suggest you be brave enough to get up on stage. It costs a little bit, but it makes good travel memories ^-^ It's a bit different from cruises arriving and departing from Icon Siam, Asiatique, etc.
OK SOMEONE ENJOYMENT TO BE HAD

3.00Even If you are a non Asian speaker you can still enjoy this dinner cruise with a couple of exceptions. Food was out about 20 minutes after seating and announced in an Asian language; just pay attention to groups starting to get up & make a dash for the food too! There was plenty of it & a large variety so grab a couple of plates before they clear it all away; the drinks we paid for probably had alcohol in them but I couldn’t really tell; the entertainment was really lame, silly really. Bunch of pretty boys & girls strutting around with seemingly no rhyme or reason. Sitting 20 feet away from speaker was no great thrill & the woman singer was obnoxious, off key & painfully loud. Other than that it was enjoyable, seeing the Wat Arun lit up from the river was great!
A nice way to cruise the river

5.00My wife and I really enjoyed the cruise. You see so many sights you sail past, and they are beautifully lit. The food was good and plentiful and the waiters were really attentive. The entertainment was fun! The singer has a great voice and we enjoyed listening to her. The dancers/ models are a bit kitsch, but it was still a laugh watching them strut their stuff and entice people to have a photo with them!
Very nice evening

3.00A well organised night, the food was amazing, the beer was ok, they pre pour with ice so it was flat, but we asked for fresh and no ice and this wasnt a problem. The entertainment was ok, ladyboy show and male dancers, but it was all about money for them if you wanted a picture with the ladyboys or the boys it cost everytime and they go round the tables trying to get you you to have pictures! We didn't and it was fine to refuse. Saw some sights along the river, overall good fun , good food and lots of laughs
10/10 experience

5.00Great experience! Very fun and exciting! Great entertainment they are very passionate. Saw other boats going past, ours seem to be having the most fun. Food was good, good variety and tasty. 10/10 would recommend this cruise over others. Side note not relevant to cruise -Take mosquito spray to use while waiting on the dock seating area between check in time and boarding. I was devo I had forgotten ours. Don’t be like me.

1.00The address on the booking site was incorrect so by the time we got the correct address we were 30 minutes away and no way we could get there in time
