Reviews
Stunning views only ruined by the loud kareoke boats on the river. A free drink and snacks of banana chips included. I think it is best to sit on the bottom at the front of the boat, as less people blocking the view.
i went there before 4:30 and I was told to come back at 5:15 because sunset during the hotter months are later. I had to spend some time at a cafe as I didnt want to walk back to my accommodation and then walk to the meeting point again. Once we boarded we received our free drink and later on we got our free banana chips. there were only a few of us aboard this so it was really nice and cozy. we had all the time to take pictures or walk around. the staff are very kind and this was overall worth the price and the visit.
Really lovely sunset cruise. Enjoyed the drink and snack included. Length of time on the cruise was just right. Beautiful sunset over the mountains. Great way to spend some relaxing time after a busy day.
The itinerary is simple and relaxing, the staff are friendly and kind, and the facilities are not luxurious but comfortable. If you don't have any plans before dinner, it's a great place to watch the sunset!
The cruise was good and there were two floors. The view was beautiful. They also gave snacks and complimentary drink. The pickup point was easy to locate.
A simple itinerary, a tranquil experience. Just admire the scenery of the Mekong River, watch the sunset, and observe the people on both banks. Enjoy this moment of inner peace!
I booked this tour because I wanted to see the sunset. The boat had two decks, and it was comfortable, perhaps because there weren't many people that day. The boat itself was clean, and unlike other boats, there was no karaoke, so I could quietly enjoy the views of Luang Prabang. I highly recommend it.
This was absolutely amazing. The sun was harsh and it was hot, but if you don't board early, you won't get a good seat. You get a beer and one plate of snacks. I think it's worth taking a ride at least once.
The best sunset cruise in Luang Prabang. I strongly recommend you guys travel with coconut cruise. Free complimentary drink (alcohol or non-alcoho options) and banana chips.
a nice and comfort cruise makes me enjoying the sunset at Mekong river.the drinks and snacks provided were also great
