On the west bank of the Chao Phraya River lays a part of town called Thonburi. Situated on the right side of the river, progress has arrived here with little impact. Get a little feeling for life in Bangkok at the beginning of the 20th century, when it was also called "Venice of the East". Wooden houses, built on stilts to stand through the high tides of the late rainy season; places, only accessible by boat; children using the river as a large playground - life in Thonburi has not changed much since its beginnings.

Start your journey by exploring the scenic klongs (canals) of Thonburi, the former capital of Thailand.

Passing by boat along the canals gives you a firsthand impression of the scenic life along Bangkok's waterways. En route we stop at and visit Bangkok's best known landmark, the enchanting Wat Arun. Afterwards cross the Chao Praya River with the public ferry and walk to the gates of the serene temple complex of Temple of the Emerald Buddha) and the Royal Grand Palace.

    We had a very enjoyable and informative morning tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we learned lots about this amazing city and country’s history. We started with an exhilarating long tail boat ride across the Chao Praya and its waterways. We stopped to feed the catfish, which was amazing. Our guide provided us with an interesting commentary on the sights that we saw. I would thoroughly recommend.
