Detailed information about each of these dinner cruises is provided below.
1. Royal Princess sunset cruise from Asiatique
On the sunset cruise, you are boarding the boat in the daylight, seeing the sunset while cruising along the Chao Phraya River, and coming back at the time it gets dark. Therefore, on this cruise you won't see the main landmarks lit up.
The sunset cruise is shorter than the dinner cruise and lasts only 1.5 hours, so it's a good choice for travelers who don't want to get stuck on the boat for longer than that.
