Good dinner cruise, good experience - The food was good and the ship was clean. We booked a birthday cake to celebrate a friend's birthday and it turned out to be a wonderful birthday for her.

Great afternoon sunset early dinner - Had a chance having sunset dinner on this beautiful stunning cruise. Nice view, nice foods, and live music performance. Everyone was so happy and dancing together. The cruise will seal along Chao Phraya River for about 2 hours. Departed from Icon Siam at around 4.30pm and return at 6.30pm. it was a great afternoon cruising.

A cruise with a view - Lovely experience on the river. Staff were very attentive and friendly (as in all of Asia). Enjoyed seeing the sights along the river, although not as many as we expected. The entertainment was lively with a varied genre and the food was delicious with choices for a variety of diets. Worth doing once when visiting Bangkok.

Cold buffet, fun live music - The vibes were cute because of the live music but the dinner buffet left a lot to be asked for. A lot of the food was cold which is a sure fire way to get food poisoning on vacation. The boat was the Meridian cruise 2. I saw many other nicer looking dinner cruises on the river. It wasn’t a bad experience but it left a little to be desired.

Good if you like cold food and want to do without service. - The only thing that worked out well was the Booking Referral with Tripadvisor. I can't make a positive review because too much went wrong. The table has wobbled so much that you fix the table with your legs all the time. The problem was well known. There was no response from the service. The service staff was very unmotivated. The drinks had to be fetched yourself, as only certain tables were served. The food was something between lukewarm and cool. And the quality also left something to be desired. Since I have already made several river trips in Bangkok with different ships, I must say that in all the points described above the other ships are much better.

No-go! #touristtrap - To start with: We had to sit downstairs... In other words, dirty windows didn't make the already bad view any better. The sights are so far away that it's not worth looking out the window! The buffet was very bad for the price. Cold, little choice and generally too small for so many guests. The singer kept repeating the songs and the music was much too loud. You couldn't have a conversation and the mood didn't fit the "dinner". Overall, it's not worth it! #touristtrap

Do not do this, it’s horrible and disgusting! - Everything was so terrible that I didn’t want to take pictures of anything. Stink, dirt, cheap tables, terrible buffet, the tables were packed tightly (apparently it’s more profitable), our table was right under the air conditioner, I somehow persuaded them to move us. The waitress dropped a flower from the fruit plate on the floor and put it back, we definitely decided not to eat anything. On the open deck, tables are placed even on the bow of the ship, which means it is impossible to take photographs there - the front part of the deck must be free of tables! The windows are dirty. But the worst thing is that the music is so loud that it PHYSICALLY HURTS. And there is nowhere to hide from it. This is many times louder than you can imagine! Cockroaches. We saw one cockroach get into the refrigerator. The kitchen is not neat and dirty. The toilet is terrible. I found a way to escape by inserting headphones into my ears without sound, went up to the 2nd floor (the sound there was just hell), and there were literally half-dead people sitting there... there was nowhere to escape. Horrible tourist trap. Don't go there! Horrible two hours of life. As soon as the ship docked, people ran out in a depressed state.

Dismal, look elsewhere. - This was the worst cruise tour that I have ever experienced. My companion and I were seated at what had to be the worst table imaginable, basically in the hold of the ship just outside the toilet. There are two levels on the boat, the main deck and the lower level just above the waterline. We were in the latter and our table was at the very back. My chair faced the women's toilet. My campanion's faced forward, but was next to a post, so had no view out the window. It didn't really matter, since the windows were covered in dirty, scratched plexiglass, so you couldn't see anything through them, even if your view hadn't been blocked by a post. The listing said the tour included a complimentary cocktail and free soft drinks, but the only thing we were offered was water. There was entertainment, but from my seat I certainly couldn't see it, only the toilet. The tour could have partially redeemed itself if there had been some place on the upper level where we could have gone after dinner to see the sights and take photos, but there was not. Any areas, fore or aft, that had possible viewing spots were filled with tables for other diners. Other boats we noticed seemed to have a top deck which was open to all. This would be a far better choice. I did book at the last minute, which probably accounts for such a bad location, but none of the tables on the lower level would have been much better. I also went back and checked to see if they offered differently priced tickets, but they did not. I'm sure my experience would have been quite different if we had been seated on the main deck, but since there seems to be no way of knowing where you will be seated, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.
