5.00This was such a fun experience. Jess and Boss made our experience unforgettable. The way they told stories and answered all our questions about Bangkok was very special and interesting. Everything was arranged perfectly. When we arrived, a delicious lunch was waiting for us. A 10/10 experience. I would definitely recommend it!
Perfect experience

3.00We had high hopes for the bike tour, but unfortunately it was quite disappointing. Based on what we had read beforehand, this seemed to be one of the highlights of our visit to Bangkok. In practice, that turned out to be different. During the tour there was little to nothing told about the city centre of Bangkok or the area we cycled through. That was exactly what we had hoped for: more background, history and explanation of what we saw. Instead, most of the attention was focused on personal stories of the guide, Evie, who spoke mostly about herself and indicated that she wanted to go home. That didn't come across as very professional. In addition, there was hardly room to stop for photos or to have a quiet look at something. The pace was high and the feeling was mainly: continue cycling and finish quickly. As a result, we really missed the experience and the opportunity to take everything in well. All in all a disappointing experience. Too bad, because based on the reviews and expectations, this should have been a very fun and informative tour.
Fun way to explore Bangkok on two wheels.

5.00Wow, a fantastic 5-hour bike and boat tour package. A hassle-free, safe and great way to explore the back streets and back lanes of Bangkok and the outer suburbs that most visitors would never venture out to. The tour guides provided an excellent, friendly and energetic service. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience Bangkok on two wheels and on water in a safe, fun and relaxing environment.
Excellent tour and saw...

5.00Excellent tour and saw parts of Bangkok we wouldn't have seen with bigger tours. Had youth bikes for my 8 year old. It was a very unique experience to see the local culture.
Exceeded expectations - very well organised

5.00Excellent trip! We did the 5 hr bike & boat tour and it exceeded our expectations. Proud and Wakim were fantastic guides, ensured we were safe with plenty of water and information about different areas. Chinatown setting up and the lunch was a highlight, cafe in the front of a house off and an alleyway in a residential settlement. We were vegetarian and well catered for. Highly recommend this tour and our guides - our children aged 9,12 and 14 enjoyed seeing the real Bangkok- the 7am start was good as still very hot and humid but would be worse later in the day.
Just amazing

5.00Today the city bike tour done under the guidance of the guides Book & Cathy. It was really more than worth it. We cycled through authentic alleys and streets. Also Chinatown was very nice. And the indoor Market. Book could tell very nice. Was also regularly stopped to eat and drink something. At the end the bike ferry crossed the river. This city bike tour is really worth it!
One of the best times in Bangkok!
