Heritage on the Water
Bangkok
The Manohra Dinner Cruise offers an intimate journey along the Chao Phraya River aboard an antique teak rice barge. These iconic vessels have been carefully restored to preserve the original artistry of the Thon Buri period, crowned by traditional Ruea Krachaeng canopies. Sailing daily from the Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort, the cruise features three departure times starting at 6pm. Guests are treated to fine Thai cuisine while gliding past royal palaces and glittering temples at sunset. The experience begins at the Manohra Lounge with welcome drinks and canapés before boarding. Dining options include both Standard and Premium set menus, with prices ranging from 3,500 to 5,500 baht per person. For a more luxurious evening, a couple’s package for 13,500 baht includes a bottle of Veuve Clicquot champagne. The experience captures the spirit of Bangkok’s golden age as the Venice of the East.
