Fully recommend, great cruise and food - A lovely cruise and wonderful food. Staff were attentive and the boat was very clean. You hardly feel you’re moving it’s very luxurious. Entertainment was great and live. Looking at the others on the same day we defo had the best boat on the water.

Great - The dinner cruise was an unforgettable experience! The food was both plentiful and absolutely delicious — every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Cruising along the water gave us a unique and stunning perspective of the city, especially as it lit up at night. The onboard entertainment was a real treat — the dancers were fantastic and added so much energy and culture to the evening. It was the perfect blend of great food, scenic views, and lively performance. Highly recommended!

Asian Tour 2025 - The dinner cruise was a joyful night to remember. We were introduced to a buffet diner that was delightfully good. The food taste great with a plethora of items to choose from. Nightly entertainment danced songs of old which included request from the audience. It was a grand experience that I will never forget.

Worth the time and money - Admittedly i didnt book via Trip Advisor, ended up paying slightly more for the same experience but not the end of the world. Hotel pick up, tradfic through the city was a bit mental but pleasant in a ac minibus. We arrived at River City with plenty time to spare and we could have a walk around the centres multiple floors just for a look. On board, ive read a few previous reviews and i think it depends on where you book/sit. We opted for open deck outdoors which give the best views and a cool breeze in the hot temperatures. Inside, yes they have live music, so if your table itls closer, its gonna be louder. There is also music coming from the top of the boat somewhere but i didnt explore. The food is nice, if you have an open mind and pallet. Remember youre in a foreign country that needs to cater for everyones taste. As long as youre not one of those "plate full of chips and tomato sauce" type of all inclusove holiday makers, you should find something here to like. There are seafood dishes, meat dishes, local thai tasty dishes aswell as salad and desserts. Dont be that guy, just try it, you might it. All in all a very pleasant cruise, chilled, and worth the money in my opinion, and thats all it is. You make of it what you will.

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.

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
