The dinner was cooked to perfection, seasoned and sized very appropriately. I arrived late and I loved that they packaged it well & it was labeled with my name. The cocktails were on point! Not one drink I ordered was too iced or water down. The servers were well staffed and came back with those items quick so you could actually enjoy them doing the show. Omg! The show. From the flawless sculptured bodies. Unmatched femininity and finishes.…”

6.Calypso x White Orchid Cruise with Private Transfer

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 65 reviews · 6 hours · from $57

Spend six hours pairing a two-hour Chao Phraya sunset cruise with a halal international buffet, live music, and Bangkok views, then see the 50-minute Calypso Cabaret at Asiatique. A private hotel transfer can handle the evening logistics, but confirm pickup and show times carefully before you go.

“This is a well-organised, seamless tour. The cruise was very entertaining. The boat was appealing, well maintained and service was excellent. The live entertainment on board was fine. The hot buffet was unpalatable and I would recommend to have a snack before the sailing and then stick to salads and desert on board. The second part of the tour was the fantastic ladyboy Parisian-style Calypso cabaret. High-energy choreographed dancing with spectacular, colorful costumes and lavish mis-en-scene. For a tio you can take your picture with a member of the cast for a tip. Brilliant.”
