How to get to the cruise pier?
On New Year's Eve 2026, Bangkok dinner cruises that normally depart from ICONSIAM are moved elsewhere. Most of them, including the Alangka Cruise, depart from Terminal 21 Rama 3 Pier, which is also serving the Unicorn Dinner Cruise, the Chao Phraya Princess Cruise, and The Opulence.
Terminal 21 Rama 3 is a shopping mall located far from the city center with no city train lines passing nearby. Therefore, the only reasonable way to get there is by taking a Bangkok taxi.
Book a hotel near the cruise pier
If you choose the cruise departing from Terminal 21 Rama 3 Pier, staying close to it on New Year's Eve can be a good idea, as there's no convenient public transportation nearby.
To ensure that your New Year's Eve cruise experience is smooth, stay at the nearby Montien Riverside Hotel (also check the special offer for the hotel on Agoda).
