A unique meander on the river Chao Phraya

We had a fabulous top deck experience on the White Orchid. The food and drink, the service and entertainment are not to be missed! It was a truly magical time on board...

Overall a wonderful time.

The cruise and show were incredible. Great atmosphere well worth the money spent. My only criticism was the check in locations were not clear and I spent a significant amount of time trying to find the cruise check in desk only just making it in time before the cut off. Hence the 4 stars.

Nice journey

Good experience with Thai buffet - with prawns and oysters. Loved the vessel entrance to dock with themed song and chef / staff standing at attention up to initial docking. Could have been better if sights pointed out consistently as we transversed river. Music and singing was good and we were on top outside level. I’m not sure how seating was done though

Very disorganized from beginning to end

The process of get onto the boat shuttle to picking up your tickets for both the cruise and show was a complete mess. The boat shuttle has a sign saying it is a free shuttle but if you don't buy tickets you will never get on. We waited in line for the shuttle, where we were told to go, then when the shuttle arrived, the staff was yelling at people, tickets tickets, no tickets go away. We bought tickets after the first shuttle left and caught the 2nd shuttle which was almost completely empty, leaving behind anyone who didn't have a ticket. We found the location then to get our show tickets and made our way to the cruise ship, only to find out that we needed to pick up tickets for the ship also. Nothing is clearly marked so you have to ask other people where to go. The food was very good. Staff were friendly. We were seated on the main deck which we left after dinner. The singer was pleasant to listen to but after a few songs it turned into a very bad karaoke mic. The seating arrangements for the caberet show were not well organized as they cramped people together, leaving empty seats throughout the theater.

Operator response

Dear Valued Customer, Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We apologize for the disorganized ticketing process and the confusion with the boat shuttle. Your experience with the shuttle staff and the lack of clear instructions is concerning. We’re glad you enjoyed the food and found our staff friendly, but we regret the poor seating arrangements and karaoke experience. We will address these issues with our partners to improve clarity and organization. Your insights are invaluable to us, and we appreciate your patience and understanding. Best regards, Oh-Hoo Team

January trip to Bangkok, first time visit.

Average experience, in hindsight we would not have bothered with the boat. Buffet food ok, entertainment on board ok, ladyboy show at Calipso, good but dated. Could have booked this separately. A rivercruise would have been cheaper. For £90 for 2, it was overpriced.

Scenery to the heart of the city.

The meal was great but if you weren't quick the crowd siphoned all the good pieces out of every dish leaving you all the liquid or fillers for remaining customers. It wasn't replaced for those who wished to miss the line ups and eat at there own pace
