We just had to wait for a little longer than what was scheduled for check in. Everyone was waiting in line already when the staff arrived. It was a fun experience though! Best decision to book this sunset cruise when you prefer a better view. The food selection is limited but they were all delicious.

The cruise is relatively simple compared to other cruise in Bangkok, but the staff and food are excellent. It’s a great experience with a variety of delicious dishes to try in its affordable price. I was initially seated on the lower deck, but after eating, I moved to the upper deck and had the chance to sit at the back of the ship. That was one of the best parts of the experience, as I could enjoy the beautiful view and lights of Bangkok. It’s definitely a must-try experience.

Simply the best! Food was great, the ambience was great, the BAND was outstanding! Great voices and amazing crowd work by the singers! The songs were great as well. They even played APT by Rosé and Bruno Mars that made my Mom stand up and dance with gusto. If there’s something they could improve on, it’s the queueing before going onto the boat. It’s kinda chaotic. Multiple vendors were crowding the pier and it was kinda hard to breathe with all the people waiting to get on. But as soon as we got onto the boat, we really felt “The Opulence” experience.

The boat itself is elegant and well-maintained, with a welcoming atmosphere. The dinner buffet features a variety of dishes, including Thai classics like pad thai and green curry, alongside international options to cater to diverse tastes. The food is fresh and flavorful, though the highlight is less about the dining and more about the overall experience. As the cruise progresses, live entertainment—usually a mix of traditional Thai performances and soft music—adds to the enchanting ambiance. The views of Wat Arun, the Grand Palace, and Rama VIII Bridge shimmering in the night make for an unforgettable backdrop.

The dinner cruise started on time and ended on time. The pick up/boarding point is conveniently located in Iconsiam which made waiting easy (as we can explore the mall whole waiting for the boaring time). The food was okay, not too luxurious to be called a luxury dinner cruise but what is luxurious is the experience. The boat is fairly new and the staff were very attentive. We were assigned a table at the top/open deck and it was high tide so we get to experience to duck while passing under a bridge because of the low headroom (it was still safe).

it was a seamless boarding experience. if you book late or same day, they will assigned your table to the farthest from the stage. Food is okay, bland food needs to add seasoning. i enjoyed the fruits the most. employees were nice and they refill the food immediately- SO YOU DONT NEED TO RUSH AND BE A FOOD WARRIOR once the buffet food started.
