Bangkok Dinner Cruise Tours With departures at both 18:00 and 20:00, spending the last few hours of the year chugging down the river on a converted rice barge is romantic, especially with the Grand Palace, Wat Arun and Rama VIII bridges glowing in the spotlights. Dinner on the Loy Nava includes a ten course Thai dinner, a bottle of wine per couple and party favours. Disembarking before midnight, there is the option of a midnight celebration at the Royal Orchid Sheraton, which includes a live band, dancing, fireworks and 2 cocktails included in the price. The Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun), Wat Phra Kaew and The Grand Palace are the highlights of the river journey, which is enhanced by a six-course Thai dinner served under the candlelight and complimented by classical Thai 'kim' music and dance performances.
