Saffron Dinner Cruise by Banyan Tree Bangkok: What to Expect

Saffron Dinner Cruise by Banyan Tree Bangkok pairs a 4-course Thai set menu with cocktails on the Moon Deck rooftop bar. You’ll sail the Chao Phraya River the whole time. So the evening splits naturally between dinner downstairs and drinks with a view up top. This Banyan Tree Saffron Cruise runs about 3 hours, longer than most river dinner cruises in the city.

Because the route passes landmarks like the Grand Palace, Wat Arun, and Rama VIII Bridge, the views change constantly through dinner. Meanwhile, the 4-course Thai set menu on this Bangkok Saffron Dinner Cruise features signature dishes that the hotel’s own chefs create. Since vegetarian options are also available on request, most dietary needs get covered without much hassle.

Dress Code and What’s Included

Once you’ve boarded, a welcome drink and unlimited soft drinks come with every ticket. So there’s rarely a reason to order much beyond the set menu itself. Smart casual dress applies throughout the cruise, and staff turn away flip-flops, sportswear, and torn denim at boarding.

Beyond dinner, the open-air Moon Deck rooftop bar serves handcrafted cocktails for guests who want to step outside between courses. Since children under 3 sail free and those under 11 need an adult nearby, this suits most family groups comfortably. Since seats run limited on this Saffron Cruise Bangkok, booking at least a week ahead is worth doing.

Saffron Dinner Cruise by Banyan Tree Bangkok: Location and How to Get There

Saffron Dinner Cruise by Banyan Tree Bangkok boards at IconSiam Pier 2 on the Chao Phraya River’s Charoen Nakhon side. Since the cruise operates daily between 6:45 PM and 10:00 PM, most guests plan an early reservation. So this leaves plenty of time to enjoy the sunset from the water.

Nearby Attractions You Can Combine With

Since you’re already near the river, pair your Saffron Cruise Bangkok evening with The Grand Palace Bangkok- Temple of the Emerald Buddha. It’s an easy earlier stop the same day. Or spend the afternoon at Sea Life Bangkok Ocean World before heading to the pier. Both make easy daytime additions before your evening cruise.
