Bangkok Ayuttahaya by boat? - The Wat Arun by the Chao Phraya River During Sunset

What are the most interesting options to take a boat trip from Bangkok to Ayuttahaya? What should I check / worry about?

[Edit] I like to be slightly comfortable, not too posh, it is for my family (with 2 kids). I figure the 'average' will do. Can you recommend any companies?
