A must to do!! - Excellent experience, starting by delicious typical food served, perfect service by the young staff. The dance was even more amazing, since the very beginning. Rate of 11/10, an absolute recommendation during your trip in Thailand. Will repeat it again.

Wonderful hospitality and entertainment - The Khantoke Dinner and Cultural show was a splendid example of Thai hospitality, food and entertainment. In our first visit to Thailand we have been welcomed, at every point of contact, with such humbling and genuine thoughtfulness. This event highlighted all that these wonderful people look to share with their visitors. I am delighted that this event was included in our Thailand Boutique Hotel trip.

Great performers and costumes, average show - Good performers and costumer, but show needs more development. Digital recording of what scene is being enacted, but no props for the women dancers. I've been to much better shows around Asia.

It was okay - It is as unusual to eat off the floor. I didn’t realize we could have chosen a traditional table/chairs. The music and dance were well done. Hard to understand the narration, which was important to us. Not sure if it was where we sat, crowd noises, or bad speakers.

Disappointing experience that just didn’t come together - I am an American living in Thailand and I took my visiting family to see this show. The cultural show was pleasant but unimpressive and the food was strictly ok - not representative of the delicious food available in this area. The only plus being the khantoke style presentation and refillable food. The overall experience was marred by the fact that the printed tickets we brought with us had both the incorrect time and the incorrect location which caused a problem getting to the show. We have come to understand from other guests and the manager that this information issue is an ongoing problem.
