For as many people that got on the boat, this was well organized. The crew was excellent and did a great job. Food was good, but the entertainment and views were the best part.

Pretty views. Roaches everywhere. Food isn’t maintained properly and they put ice in the beer. Dirty overall. We saw them not even wash some glasses, dumped out water people drank from and put them back in glass crate.
Nice, but don't expect to actually see a sunset. Between the buildings and the way river runs its just not possible. However, we had a wonderful time just being on the river and enjoying the sites.
The food was delicious and plenty of it. Drinks were extra but not overly expensive.

Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the river cruise, delicious food, and beautiful views along the Chao Phraya River. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you onboard again soon.
First, this was not a 2 hour cruise. It was 1 1/2 hours. Very rushed and not enjoyable. Staff were nice and friendly. Entertainment was subpar. Water was stinky we had to sit downstairs where the buffet was.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your comments regarding the cruise duration, entertainment, and seating arrangements, and we will share them with the operator for further improvement. Thank you for acknowledging our friendly staff.
I did the night dinner cruise expecting to see the temples. They did not take us to see the Temples at all.

Boat was quite nice and a lot more newer that some of the other boats i had seen out that day on the water. The buffet food was very good, although felt very rushed its really only an hour max on the boat spent at least half an hour in the blistering sun until we boarded as they request you be at the wharf 45 min before you board . your on an open deck so the sun was intense, so if planning to do a sunset cruise will not recommend unless its in the more bearable part of the year. Nothing special or anything exciting as its a short lived boat ride. If your buying drinks make sure you have cash on you as they do not accept eftpos only once docked back at the wharf meanwhile i got hassled about not having cash on me. Not my problem!!
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the boat and buffet food. The Planet Cruise is one of the most poppular cruises in Thailand, and since many cruises depart from the same pier, we recommend guests arrive early to avoid any confusion and ensure smooth boarding.
Please note that the sunset cruise program is approximately 1 hour long. If you prefer a longer cruising experience, we would recommend the dinner cruise option instead.
Regarding the cash-only payment for drinks onboard, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We will forward your comments to the relevant team in order to help improve the service in the future.
Thank you again for your valuable feedback.
This was sold as a wheelchair accessible dinner cruise. It is NOT at all.
There was access to the boat, and that is where it stopped. There was no ramp from the dock to the boat. No one told us at the ticketing desk, nor the loading line. There was another wheelchair user who was a shocked as I was. My wife and son were with me and I had pumped up this outing and didn't want to disappoint them.
Four crew members went to pick me up in my manual wheelchair to lift me onto the boat (down 3 stairs). I am not comfortable with that at all.
They then started to take me up a full flight of stone stairs. And then another. Because they spoke no English my objections were useless.
No washroom access, too many people to move about the upper deck, constantly being kicked by other guests going to their seats, no view of the entertainment, very disappointing food, and then it got worse.
They started pushing my chair without asking, and refused to stop when told to not to.
Going back down they almost dropped me multiple times and were laughing about it. The reality is a drop on stone stairs being carried backwards would mean a very serious injury.
While waiting for the docking a crew member continued to hit my chair repeatedly with his hand (the equivalent of getting kicked in the foot while standing, over and over). I asked him to stop (he continued), knocked his hand off my chair (he continued), turned around and yelled at him (he backed off, then continued).
Just a horrible night. I was embarrassed I took my family on this outing.

Thank you for your feedback, and we are truly sorry for your experience.
We sincerely apologize for the discomfort and disappointment you experienced during the cruise. What happened should not have occurred, and we truly regret that your evening did not go as expected.
Please rest assured that we take this matter very seriously. We have already forwarded your feedback to the cruise operator and requested that they investigate this incident and provide you with a satisfactory response once the investigation is completed.
We truly value your trust, and if we have the opportunity to serve you again, we would be grateful for the chance to arrange a much better experience for you.
Amazing view. Loved the experience, it was a smooth journey. I recommend it. And the pire is also good.
Fantastic value for money. I thought the food might be poor but it was excellent- a fantastic experience
.Highly recommended.
The boat was nice, food is good and the entertainment was very nice. The sunset was stunning. We really loved it

Thank you for your review. We’re glad to hear the cruise was well organized and that you enjoyed the crew, views, and entertainment. We hope to welcome you again on board The Planet Cruise.
We did the earlier sunset cruise and it was beautiful to watch the sunset. The food was ok. People rushed to the buffet once it opened. The live entertainment was good and made the atmosphere more lively. We had a fun time and would recommend it. If you want more variety of food then do the later start time cruise.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you so much for joining our sunset cruise and for sharing your experience. We’re really glad you enjoyed the views, the live entertainment and had a fun time overall.
Thanks also for your honest note about the buffet and food variety. For guests who prefer a later start and more dinner options, we also work with other evening cruises such as The Opulence and several later-time boats along the Chao Phraya. Next time you’re in Bangkok, feel free to message us via Viator and we’ll happily recommend a cruise that best fits your style.
It's in a great location to shop, have a drink or go on the big wheel etc before hand making it more of an occasion than just the 1.5hr river cruise. The food was great and plentiful, entertainment catered to everyone, the staff very friendly and the views whilst dining was fantastic. Great to have a little dance before disembarking and having the rest of the evening at this location. Brilliant
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thanks so much for your kind review. We’re really glad you enjoyed the food, entertainment, and the overall vibe by the river.
It sounds like you made a great night out of it, and we’d love to have you back on the Chao Phraya the next time you’re in Bangkok.
It was beautiful! The personnel were nice and accommodated our needs. The food was cold, some dishes were too spicy.. I did not enjoyed the food. Desert was nice. We departed after the time we supposed to leave but we were back timely so it was a short ride.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for joining our cruise. We’re very happy to hear that you found the experience beautiful and our team welcoming and attentive.
We’re sorry to learn that the food temperature and spice level didn’t fully meet your expectations. Our culinary team has been informed, and we’re reviewing the buffet setup to ensure all dishes are served warm and with clearer spice-level labeling to suit different tastes.
We truly appreciate your kind words about our dessert and service. Your comments help us continue improving while keeping the friendly atmosphere and scenic charm that our guests love. We hope to welcome you again soon for an even better dining experience on the river.
Had such a great time on the Planet Cruise! Seeing the Grand Palace and temple from the water was super beautiful. The food and music were really nice too. Bit crowded, but honestly, everything was so worth it. Loved it!
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again soon!
Excellent modern ship. Good food although initially a bit of a scramble as no staggered service is offered. We wish we had known about Asiaisque boarding venue beforehand . We expected just a pier for the ship but it is a huge complex with hundreds of shops and restaurants interspersed with fairground rides and we would have spent an afternoon there if we had known.
Response from Host, Aug 2024
It's great to hear that you enjoyed the good food onboard, despite the initial rush during meal times. Your feedback about the lack of staggered service is duly noted and can be valuable for the cruise line to improve the dining experience for guests in the future.
We appreciate your feedback and hope that you had an enjoyable overall experience on your cruise. Thank you for choosing to sail with us, and we hope to welcome you onboard again in the future!
Best part besides the boat ride was the entertainment! Made the evening really fun and lively. It was also fun having to duck down when going under the bridges because it had rained earlier in the day.
Response from Host, Aug 2024
We're glad you enjoyed the lively entertainment on board and the fun experience of ducking under bridges. Thank you for sharing your positive feedback with us. We're thrilled that you had a great time on the boat ride, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another memorable cruise in the future!

Everything was rushed. People shoving and running for food which was not the best quality and clearly mass produced. Over 100 pax on our boat.
Lady singing should consider another career. Dancers was ok except the begging for tips afterwards when taking picture with them.
Not worth the money to be treated like a child.

Very nice cruise on the river. Food was very good. Nice way to see the city at night. Be prepared if you are on the top deck to sit on the floor going under a couple of bridges. Was an interesting experience....

It was an awesome experience, the boat was super new and luxurious, the food was abundant and delicious. The singer was fantastic and the atmosphere was so lively, it was a blast! The scenery along the Meinan River was incredibly beautiful, it really left a deep impression on me.

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the beautiful sunset and night views along the cruise. Glad you captured such amazing photos! Hope to see you again soon.
Moje najlepiej wydane pieniądze w całej Tajlandii. Prom, jedzenie i widoki za przyzwoite pieniądze, czego chcieć więcej?
Jedzenie jak za tą cenę, to całkiem całkiem, płatne drinki dobre.
Cały trip mógł trwać kapkę dłużej, ale za tą kwotę nie ma co narzekać.
Byliśmy na opcji "sunset"
Polecam.

Terrible experience, very poor food, walk with too many people, which makes it impossible to enjoy the boat, even eat, is quite a crossing, as it is too many people for what they place
