Along the River Side at Night, Chiang Mai

Chiang Mai NightLife: River Side Area

Before night we'd like to give you the wonderful day trip by cruising Ping River ...

To feel the essence of Chiang Mai, take a cruise along the Mae Ping River. An exotic boat takes you to a traditional farmhouse where kitchen herbs, fruit and vegetables are grown.

Join the nightly Riverside boat trip along the River Ping as you dine and wine on this enchanting river. Our gently floating boat can cater for private parties as well as anybody who would like to join in. This is an idyllic relaxing way to pass an evening drifting past old temples and houses that lie on the river banks.

The 75 minute dinner cruise (Boat charge: 90B for adults / 45B for kids 5-10years) leaves from our pier at 08:00 PM every night After boarding the boat at 07:15 PM, you choose from a wide variety of foods & drinks from our regular restaurant menu then lean back and enjoy the romantic surroundings.

• The Riverside: Charoenrat Road. [5 p.m. - 1a.m.]One of the many restaurants playing live music on the banks of the Ping River. Has two stages featuring rock and pop covers by surprisingly good bands. However, this is a real favourite with tourists, so get there early or be prepared to stand. There's also a daily dinner cruise.
• The Good View: Charoenrat Road. [5 p.m. - 1a.m.]Next door to the Riverside, this is popular spot for both tourists and well-to-do Thais. Spacious outdoor area with, yes, you guessed it, good views. Music varies between pop/rock covers and concerts by Thai pop stars.
• Brasserie: Charoenrat Road. [5 p.m. - 1a.m.]The best music in Chiang Mai, full stop. Extremely talented Thai guitarist, Took, rocks the house nightly with versions of Hendrix, Dylan, Clapton and other classics. Has a compact, smoke-filled club feel to the place and you'll go home swearing you just watched Jimi play and begging for more. Opening bands start early and Took takes the stage around 10.30pm. Don't miss it.
• Bubbles: Discos in Chiang Mai, usually full with a mixed crowd of Thais and foreigners. You will find the up-to-date music, easy atmosphere, reasonable drink prices. Below Porn Ping Hotel.
