Royal Princess Cruise: The Most Affordable Chao Phraya Dinner Cruise in Bangkok, Thailand

Royal Princess Cruise: The Most Affordable Chao Phraya Dinner Cruise in Bangkok, Thailand

2 Comments / travel, review, thailand / By

A dinner cruise on Chao Phraya seems to be one of the most popular things to do in Bangkok. Although it was my third time visiting the city, I never got a chance to take a dinner cruise in Bangkok until I traveled with my boyfriend recently.

After taking the Death Railway route and learning more about World War II history in Kanchanaburi, as well as bungee jumping in Chiang Mai, there were at least two romantic activities that we did in Thailand: strolling around the beach in Hua Hin and finally joining the Royal Princess Dinner Cruise in Bangkok.

We decided to join the dinner cruise as it was our last day in Bangkok before flying out to Indonesia the next day. To be fair, we were quite lucky that we made it to join this cruise, given the idea our first class train from Chiang Mai to Bangkok had a technical problem that we arrived WAY later than scheduled.

In this post, I'm going to share my firsthand experience of the Chao Phraya dinner cruise with Royal Princess in Bangkok. Is it really the most affordable option for a dinner cruise in Bangkok? How was the experience? How was the food? Is it really worth the hype? Here's the complete review of the Royal Princess dinner cruise in Bangkok!

Khum Phucome Hotel: One of the Best Hotels in Chiang Mai, Thailand

Khum Phucome Hotel: One of the Best Hotels in Chiang Mai, Thailand

Leave a Comment / accommodation, hotel, review, thailand, travel / By

If you're giggling a little when you read the hotel's name, “Khum Phucome” as you think of some inappropriate English words, you're as immature as I am. LOL. In fact, the first reason why my boyfriend and I ended up booking a room at Khum Phucome Hotel in Chiang Mai was actually for the sake of banter because of the name.

Initially, we were eyeing Pingviman Hotel for our accommodation in Chiang Mai as we were keen to stay in one of their rooms with a jacuzzi inside the bathroom. We were traveling to Chiang Mai on Valentine's day, so we were ready to splurge a little for our romantic getaway in North Thailand.

I suppose we weren't the only couple who were aiming to stay at Pingviman Hotel in Chiang Mai, and the next thing we knew was that the hotel was no longer available when we were ready to book our accommodation in Chiang Mai.

When we scrolled through the other options in Agoda, we came across Khum Phucome Hotel and we were joking that this would be a perfect hotel for Valentine's day as a couple. The joke's on us because when we scrolled through the information and the photos of the property… We found out that the hotel looked quite decent in the pictures. So then we decided to book a room there.

Greenbus Thailand: Bus from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai

Greenbus Thailand: Bus from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai

Leave a Comment / thailand, review, tips, transportation / By

If Cambodia has Giant Ibis, Thailand has Greenbus as one of the best operators in the country. Among so many routes they have, the most popular one is the bus from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai and the other way around.

I got a chance to try their service when I traveled from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai. At first I thought I'd have to take a minibus service like most routes available in Thailand, but as I bought the bus ticket go-show at Chiang Rai bus terminal, I only found out that there's a proper bus service for the route and that's how I got a chance to try the Greenbus service in Thailand for the first time.

In this post, I'm going to share my firsthand experience of traveling from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai by bus, including the review of using Greenbus for the transportation operator in North Thailand. So, what do you need to know about the bus from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai with Greenbus?

Pimanninn Hotel

Review: Pimanninn Hotel in Chiang Rai, Thailand

Leave a Comment / accommodation, hotel, review, thailand / By

After sharing some of the best things to do in Chiang Rai recently, it's time for me to review the accommodation where we stayed for two nights there. We stayed at Pimanninn Hotel in Chiang Rai, and I have mixed opinions about this hotel. If I can be honest, staying at Pimanninn is probably my least favorite decision in Chiang Rai.

Don't get me wrong, the hospitality of their staff is great, but they can surely improve in some other aspects. So in this post, I'm going to share my firsthand experience of staying at Pimanninn Hotel in Chiang Rai.
