We sat and just watched the river, the music was not good

Not enough food and it wasn't entertaining. It's should have been more snacks after the mea. More drinks should have been offered. l

Amazing evening

Great fun evening seeing Bangkok via the river. Food and services was great. A little tricky finding the check in but we found it in the end! It was nice to be able to book upper deck too. Highly recommended

Not as advertised

Getting on the ship was so disorganized and the ship did not look like the pictures that were advertised. It was very disappointing and we were unhappy to have spent money on this experience.
