Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving, head towards Charoen Krung Road in the Bang Kho Laem area of Bangkok. From the center of Bangkok, follow the signs for the Chao Phraya River. You will find the entrance to Asiatique The Riverfront, which is where the Chaophrayacruise is located. Look for parking areas available near the entrance. Parking fees may vary, so be prepared for a small charge upon entry.

• Taxi

  Taking a taxi is a convenient option. Simply tell the driver to take you to 'Asiatique The Riverfront' or use the address: '2194 Charoen Krung Road, 10120, Bangkok'. The fare will depend on your starting location, but expect it to be around 100-300 THB from central Bangkok. Ensure that the taxi uses the meter to avoid overcharging.

• Public Transportation (BTS Skytrain)

  If you prefer public transportation, take the BTS Skytrain to Saphan Taksin station (Silom Line). From there, exit the station and head to the Sathorn Pier. At the pier, catch a boat to Asiatique The Riverfront. The boat ride is scenic and usually costs around 30-40 THB. Once you arrive at Asiatique, follow the signs to the Chaophrayacruise boarding area.

• Public Bus

  You can take a public bus to reach Asiatique. Look for buses that go towards the Bang Kho Laem area. Bus routes such as 1, 15, or 76 can bring you close. Check the local bus schedule for timings, as they may vary. The fare is usually very affordable, costing around 10-20 THB. After disembarking, you may have to walk a short distance to reach Asiatique.

• Motorbike Taxi

  For a quicker and more adventurous option, consider taking a motorbike taxi. These can be found at various locations and will take you directly to Asiatique. Just show the driver the address and negotiate the price beforehand. Fares typically range from 50-150 THB depending on distance.
