The story goes that many decades ago an American engineer named Botter Reeves working in Bangkok was asked to entertain some visiting executives, so he hired an old rice barge, arranged for food on board and improvised a dinner cruise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"831\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-menu-1024x831.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-menu-1024x831.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-menu-300x243.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-menu-768x623.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-menu.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The cruise was a huge success, so Reeves eventually set out to build a full-time business around the concept. He converted an old rice barge into a luxurious river boat and commenced his river cruising business. That same boat remains in business today, and although numerous refinements have taken place over the years, it still maintains every inch of its authentic character and charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-1 wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" data-id=\"10882\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10882\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise.jpg 333w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"283\" data-id=\"10881\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10881\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-2.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise-2-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two dinner cruises daily, with the Sunset Cruise departing at 6pm and the Bangkok At Night Cruise at 8.10pm. It\u2019s a great way to see some of the city\u2019s most famous landmarks including The Grand Palace and The Temple of The Emerald Buddha, Wat Arun (The Temple of Dawn), Wat Pho and many more. A Thai style dinner is served on board with optional drinks packages available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Loy Nava Dinner Cruise is the only way to experience Bangkok on an authentic antique rice barge and has excellent reviews on TripAdvisor. <a class=\"aioseop-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/en\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact Bangkok Beyond<\/a> for further information and bookings including transfers to and from your hotel or book online to <a aria-label=\"get discounted tickets (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"aioseop-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/en\/loy-nava-dinner-cruise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>get discounted tickets<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>You might also like<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex wp-container-6 wp-block-columns alignfull has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000\">\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wan-fah-dinner-cruise\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/wanfah_2.jpg\" alt=\"Maeklong Railway Market\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wan-fah-dinner-cruise\">Wan Fah Dinner Cruise<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wonderful-pearl-dinner-cruise\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/14-0-1507609305.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wonderful-pearl-dinner-cruise\">Wonderful Pearl Dinner Cruise<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/grand-pearl-dinner-cruise\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/700_13019333214d99ed0911f6d.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/grand-pearl-dinner-cruise\">Grand Pearl Dinner Cruise<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cruise on the Chao Phraya river is a fantastic way to experience Bangkok, and something all visitors should try to experience at least once in my opinion. &nbsp;We\u2019ve already talked about this in last week\u2019s post of course, but&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[212],"tags":[800,585],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9209"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9209"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9209\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11921,"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9209\/revisions\/11921"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9209"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9209"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9209"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
