About this activity

You will be picked up from your hotel in downtown Bangkok and head down to the Asiatique Riverfront Night complex, home of the Calypso Cabaret. Asiatique is one of the latest additions in the shopping, wining and dining concepts along the Chao Phraya River and the ideal venue for admiring such a lavish show as what the Calypso Cabaret entails.

Calypso Cabaret is Bangkok's first performance show of Thai transgender artists. See and experience the talents and their astounding beauty of these performing artists with their uniqueness as they take center of the stage to perform for you. Enjoy the outstanding show of performers celebrating human diversity in the spirit of tolerance. The performances depict various aspects of western and Asian culture, ranging from historical enactments to the latest up-to-date acts in showbiz and entertainment. Each of the performers will partake in various acts which constantly change from season to season. Repeater visitors therefore will never be bored when entering the gates of the Calypso Cabaret.

After the show, it is possible to take pictures with these performers in costume (tips are not needed, but recommended) before your driver will bring you back to your hotel. Otherwise, you may want to stay a bit longer at the abundance of bars, cafes and shopping possibilities at Asiatique itself. Transfer back to your hotel will be then on own arrangement.

This is a worthwhile show, if like me, you're mesmerised by lady boys! We were called from the hotel reception to tell us that our driver was ready to take us to the Calypso show, this was 1 hour prior to the confirmed time! I advised the reception that he was an hour early and that we weren't ready and they advised us that the driver would wait. When we did get driven to the calypso show, we were there 1,5 hours before the show started. This worked out ok for us as we hadn't had any dinner and there are lots of restaurants near the show so we grabbed some food. There are 2 show times for the calypso show, around 7.3pm and the 9.30pm performance, both last between 60 and 90 minutes I believe. This tour doesn't offer the earlier show, so you may want to book direct if you want to go at 7.30pm. the show consists of lady boys and men dancing around in various fancy costumes. A couple of them come off the stage and into the audience but only kiss those men in the front row - my husband!! Afterwards, they are all lined up so that you can have your photo taken with them. They do request tipping for this, and get quite annoyed if you don't give too much of a tip! Overall, worth seeing, the organisation of the transfers was awful though.
