Two hours on the river, dinner and a full cultural show included

The Sawasdee Chaophraya River Dinner Cruise is a two-hour evening tour departing from ICONSIAM Pier in Bangkok, where you board a three-level luxury ship, eat an international buffet, and watch live traditional Thai dance, Muay Thai performances and Khon masked dance while passing illuminated landmarks including Wat Arun and the Grand Palace. The ship has an elevator, making it accessible for guests with mobility needs or traveling with infants in strollers. Soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are available for purchase; transportation to and from the pier is not included but public transit options are nearby.

The Experience

Board at ICONSIAM Pier 4 in the early evening and head onto the Chao Phraya River aboard one of Bangkok's newest luxury ships. The buffet dinner includes Thai, seafood, halal and international dishes, with welcome drink, coffee, hot tea and water included. As you eat, the ship passes illuminated landmarks — Wat Arun's spires, the Grand Palace's golden roofline, Rama VIII Bridge — all lit against the night sky. The route can shift during high water in the rainy season for safety, so views may vary depending on when you travel.

Throughout the evening, live musicians perform while traditional Thai dancers move through the decks in full costume. The Muay Thai shows bring energy and movement to the dining experience, and the Khon masked dance — a classical Thai performance art — rounds out the cultural program. You choose your atmosphere: the Sky Deck on the third floor sits closer to the music and performances, while the first and second floors offer a quieter dinner setting. Staff can seat you based on your preference when you arrive, subject to availability.

The ship has an elevator, one of the few on the Chao Phraya, which makes it easier to move between decks if you have mobility considerations or are traveling with young children in a stroller. All areas and surfaces are wheelchair accessible. Complimentary mini birthday cake is available if you're celebrating. The cruise runs two hours total, giving you time to eat, watch the performances and see the river landmarks without the evening stretching too long.

Is this one for you?Choose the Sky Deck if you want to be in the middle of the live performances and music; pick a lower deck if you prefer to eat without the energy of the shows happening around you — both give you the same river views and buffet, just a different atmosphere for the evening.
