We had an amazing unforgettable dining experience with this river cruise! Admission fee including our agents is reasonable. Our cruise time is at 7:30 pm as it's written on our individual ticket. But we went to the docking area earlier for the queue as there were other groups. The embarkation was orderly and quick though! The crowd was lively! We were seated on the upper deck and we're among the more than 200 people there( I believe). I don't know how many were in the lower deck. The buffet dinner was grand, with international selection for such a global crowd! Awesome! The staff were courteous and energetic. We enjoyed jamming with the House Band and later dancing! Though there was a brief drizzle, it didn't damp the spirit of the dancing crowd. While enjoying the party, we also had an unforgettable celebration with the spectacular sights of the glowing Grand Palace and other landmarks in golden lights!

Worst experience I've had. Be very careful what a waste of money and more importantly a waste of time. There was no option to pick a seat with a view. Sat down on a seat next to the buffet people bumping pushing the table whole time with no view the whole time. The get on and off was horrible. Please please don't waste a $ on this!! What a joke.. food seriously come on what a disgrace I'm so upset o wasted a night of my holidays on this
Was good while it lasted but maybe the buffet could be managed better... A lot of people requires better management. Otherwise a good ride!
The boat was quite clean with a very surprising welcome performance. We came to the pier 2 at 7:25 and got on the boat at about 7:45. It was very crowded at the pier because of many passengers from another boat ao you have to find out where the boat line. Before get on the boat, you will be asked to take a photo by photographer and then they will print and sell it at 200baht as a gift. The food was not very diverse, and just average. Some was cold when I ate. Even I noted that I want an upper edge table, it seems like you only can choose up or down. I was arranged to sit at the table next to the aisle, next to me was a 2 seat table too and the edge side is the 4 seat table. Maybe you can easily to get the edge seat if you have more than 4 people. Even not the edge seat, table for group was set at very nice place, like the bow of the boat, where is very near by the band. I did asked to have another seat because around me was empty, but a man staff, looks like manager lead me to the table at the head of the bow so I felt really lucky and grateful. You will be asked about paid drinks when you settle down. I don't know if it's mandatory because when I refused, the staff always stood there waiting until I ordered. The service staff seems to have poor English so it was a bit difficult to communicate. Even though the seats are great, there will be a lot of people coming to take photos midway through, so it may affect your meal.
We have fabulous night the food excellent service and great people we go back again next time thank you
Very nice tour of Chaophraya. The sea of lights from Bangkok from the boat is perfect. Beautiful sights dipped in their lights in the evening / night. The food on board was also great 👍🏻 we will book it again the next time we visit
Last minute booking , could only get lower deck , finding the booking office a little difficult inside a very busy shopping centre , would have thought the office would have been on the dock ? Give yourself plenty of time to find … after that information very clear on on what cruise you on , what boat number , etc etc . After being seated the cruise manger came and upgraded us to the top deck . Thank u so much . People need to chill a little as there was a mad rush for the food when there was no need ! There is plenty to go around including big prawns … Great staff , great food , and a great female entertainer who got all involved on the night up dancing and singing etc . All ran like clock work from the minute we left the dock till we returned, 2 hours later . Would recommend this cruise and company to anybody looking for a fun night out on the river . Cheers 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Excellent experience, well organized, great food selection and entertainment on the boat. Trip with friends, birthday celebration during our stay in Bangkok Highly recommended!
We arrived approximately 10 minutes before the deadline due to heavy traffic in Bangkok. However, upon arrival, we discovered ICON Siam, a vast complex bustling with thousands of people and numerous shops. Finding the meeting point, which required at least an hour, was virtually impossible. Consequently, we missed our cruise. Upon reaching the piers, I encountered a sea of people and spent over 20 minutes searching for someone to assist us. Eventually, we found a helpful lady from the company who arranged a reasonably priced speedboat to take us to the cruise ship. We managed to board approximately 30 minutes before it concluded. Food was OK
The views were great. Food was good. Organisation was awful , finding the check in was a nightmare and lining up was like a cattle market. Whole thing at the Dock was complete chaos.
It was very crowded at the Icon Siam, as many dinner cruises start from the Piers at IconSiam, and the check in was a bit challenging. Maybe it was because of the weekend. We were informed that we should be there at 6, but the staff only came around 7:15 to give us the tickets. Other than that it was a fun experience. The food was plenty and choice was good. It was ok for vegetarians, we had a bit of choice. The music and the singer were good, and the last part with dancing was fun. All in all - NICE.
This cruise is meant to city in lights but the moment it is started they open dinner and people missing beautiful city in night. The cruise should start the Dinner after one hour after tour started. Food is good. Entertainment is good. Singer singing indian and English songs. Authorities should provide seating arrangement for the tourists waiting to board cruise. People are standing tired for more than an hour and not enjoying cruise fully
The cruise experience was delightful, but the getting to the meeting point an then to the pier and to the ferry was very hard and hectic. No proper signs were there. Too chaotic and frustrating. As well as getting back. Huge lineups for taxis
The crusie environment is good and the waiters service quality and atttitude is excellent. The food variety at buffet is a bit limited. However, the broading logistic and arrangment is extremely poor. Different cruise ships are broading at the same pier, and schedule or information is unavaliable at the pier, lot of people are crowed and conjested around the pier.
Fantastic experience! The dock looked crazy at first but turned to be quite organized. Would do again.
I am not a fan of the tourist “herding cattle” events. This is one of them. Getting on the boat is like this. Once in, you have a table area reserved for you, which is nice. The buffet had a large variety of food. The food was ok. We were on the bottom level of the ship so the views were limited. I would recommend the top area for better viewing opportunities. The entertainment was fabulous! We eventually did go to the top level where the singer engaged with the crowd and was really good. That part made the experience worthwhile.
Nice cruise & views. Food was average, we didn't even know when dessert was served. Cocktails were amazing. Entertainment was good but where were the traditional dancers which was one of the main reasons we chose this cruise!!?? Overall i'm sorry to say it was average.
The cruise was good, nice entertainment and food. I'd allow extra time to find the cruise operator in the Iconsiam building.
A good dinner cruise, starting from the pier at the vibrant Icon Siam mall area, Chao Praya Princess Cruise lures you with spacious seating, a nice spread and efficient service.
Super accommodation very nice experience. I will definitely come back with friends because it was fun
Missed the departure due to bad traffic, when we eventually arrived we found the kiosk which wasn’t an easy find as IconSiam is a huge place. Managed to find a staff member who took us down to the pier, arranged a speedboat so that we could join the cruise for the last hour. What an experience, the food was lovely, the atmosphere was great and the staff very attentive. Definitely a 10/10
Excellent cruise. Good view of Bangkok. Quality of food is good. It's delicious. Love to be there again.
Will recommend this cruise because of the night lights and beautiful view of Bangkok when on cruise but the food aboard is not good.
Our first dinner cruise experience. Offered an Indian buffet. Staff was supportive. A singer and a flute player was there. Safety measures were explained. Overall an amazing experience and enjoyed alot
Worst tour I ever booked! First of all the instructions the operator gave to check in were laughably bad. It's like they didn't realize how massive IconSiam mall is! Finding their little rinkydink operation was not easy for someone who does not know layout of mall. Then boarding dinner cruise boat was also a disorganized mess it was pure chaos every man, woman, and child for themselves. Finally we discover we pay full price but cannot even choose our preferred table it's pre-assigned and of course they give us worst table possible (bottom floor in middle so hard to see views outside plus the obnoxiously loud jazz / pop band right next to us blasting at such high volume conversation was impossible). Last but not least the buffet dinner was average at best. If there ever was one tour I book through here that I'd like my money back it's this one. If they offered us to go again for free I'd say heck no! Just awful. Avoid!
Thought there will be more seafood but end up we are having prawns and mussels, can have more variety of seafood. The choice for kids was limited as mostly of the dishes are spicy. Entertainment and environment was good. If you are looking for nice food it will not be recommended. For an experience you can try it
A nice cruise up and down the river We were able to get a table at the front of the boat so we didn’t have a roof above us. The music was loud but enjoyable. The food was bland, the salmon sashimi was just bad. Luckily we ate before the boat ride. It was around 800 baht, so a little pricey for what you received. One note is all the you tubers taking pictures, it was very annoying. I would do it again, I might try another boat to see if the food was better.
Very loud music, impossible to talk to each other, and the dishes were cold once served on the plate Very nice welcome
The views were very nice. However we didn’t know we would be inside (downstairs) and away from the window until we picked up the ticket in physics. The air conditioning was very cold, the food good.
El barco muy bonito y las vistas nocturnas impresionantes. Lamentablemente cuando la agencia me envió los puntos de embarque no me dijeron que el de Terminal 21 era solo gastronomía India, y que además toda la música y todo el pasaje (excepto mi esposa y yo) eran indios. No tengo ningún problema por el tema de la nacionalidad, pero no entendíamos nada y nos sentíamos como los intrusos y nos hubiese gustado música más internacional . Recomiendo a la agencia que informe mejor las diferencias entre tomar cada punto de embarque.
This boat trip was perfect and together with the atmosphere, music, food and fireworks it couldn't be topped. We still shudder today at how beautiful it was. This trip is highly recommended.
I traveled on Christmas Eve and on New Year's Eve everything perfect you find for sure something you like in the buffet. I preferred the upper deck in the open, much more romantic and fascinating and on arrival the surprise of fireworks
