Very enjoyable evening - would recommend if you prefer a peaceful cruise
Overall the evening was very enjoyable. We boarded the boat at 6.30pm and we quickly had out drinks order taken (drinks aren't included in the price). We had the Thai menu which had food such as spring rolls, spicy shrimp soup, green curry, etc. on it which was very tasty although not extraordinary. The boat itself was unique amongst the other large modern white dinner cruise boats, which I preferred. It was more traditional and cosy. One criticism is that despite the fans and being outside, the boat was still quite hot for the first half of the trip. The highlight of the cruise was the traditional Thai dancers who performed on the way back to the pier. I would recommend this experience to anyone who prefers a more traditional and peacful experience. I had an amazing time!
Response from the operator: Hi Joy, We thank you for booking our Wan Fah Dinner Cruise and we appreciate your remarks which we will pass on to the team at Wan Fah. Regards, Nick

Super show and food Ok
Very good show with music and a nice visit from the Chao Praya point of view, a lack of historic commentary about the monuments seen during the Tour maybe, or local incentives
Response from the operator: Hello Marco, Yes you are correct, the Wan Fah is a very good cruise down the river and we glad you enjoyed this, Regards, Nick

Special way to spend your evening
It was more than I expected. I'm so glad I decided to take this rather than the big boats. The tour was very special cause there's less people and less noisy than the big boats. They even have special performances like traditional dances. The food isn't that great though.
Response from the operator: Dear S554XHeduardoa, Thanks for sharing your views with readers of Tripadvisor.com. We are extremely happy to read that the Wan Fah Dinner Cruise was very special and more than you expected. Kind regards, Christopher Product Manager - Tours & Activities Online I Asia Group

Nice way to spend an evening
The boat was very ornate. The food was surprisingly delicious and plentiful. The dancing was interesting, a little more explanation of the meaning and history would have been nice. Also most sights are seen from the right side of the boat with seating pre assigned. Perhaps a chance to pay more for the right side could be offered.

Quality price can be made
Inside it is quite old and nothing takes care of the Service or the table or the dishes, the bad food. The show is very good, dance many pieces and change clothes and hairstyles several times, a girl plays live a nice instrument The girl trying to explain in English what we're seeing, you better put a recording because she has no idea They give you dinner on the jetty just as something horrible comes in everyone the railings looking Lasts 1 hour upriver seeing the temples at night and 1 hour back The boat is beautiful on the outside and is what sells because inside it has nothing taken care of the decoration Although I prefer this boat than the modern nightclubs and even if they have buffet in these places it is never good food
Response from the operator: Dear biodanzaeuskadi, Appreciate your comments and as Wan Fah are one of the top 5 dinner cruises in Bangkok they are keen to get more details from you so that they can make any necessary adjustments and improvements. You can email to christopher@iasiathailand.com Kind regards, Christopher Manager Tours & Activities Online Department I Asia Thailand

Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bangkok.
How much does Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés cost?
+
Prices start at $137 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bangkok usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bangkok is not rushed.
Is Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bangkok, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bangkok can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bangkok and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Manohra Royal Thai Dinner Cruise with pre Canapés start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bangkok within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bangkok?
+
On Outty we rank every Bangkok experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Must-Try: Hidden Bangkok Bike and Food Tour, Tingly Thai Cooking Class with Morning Market Tour, Bangkok Backstreets Food Tour with 15+ Tastings. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bangkok?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bangkok?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+
