What To Expect
Red symbolizes good luck in Chinese Culture and you will certainly consider yourself lucky to witness mysterious Bangkok's Chinatown and its surroundings through the eyes of the knowledgeable guides available. This fascinating tour starts with a journey through a wonderfully rich Muslim community to the Old Customs House, right along the river. This was the first stop for ancient travelers entering Bangkok and the perfect place to start your journey! From there you’ll weave through the maze of woven streets and alleys that make up Bangkok’s vibrant and bustling Chinatown. Following your well-informed guide through the diverse cultures that make up this lively part of the city, you’ll discover all it has to offer. After taking in the culture from Chinatown we will visit the flower and vegetable markets. You’ll cross the magnificent Chao Phraya River by ferry and continue your journey by exploring the Historic Thonburi side of the river, stopping at the incredible Wat Arun, with many flower gardens and exhibitions for you to leisurely enjoy. After which, you’ll also enjoy visits to Wat Prayoon and Wat Kalayanamitr temples. These are all classic examples of beautiful Thai temples and culture that can’t fail to please. After you’ve taken in all the culture you can it’s a short trip back to base to unwind and discuss the day’s journey with your tour group, and plenty of free cold water and soft drinks, or maybe even purchase a refreshing beer or two.

Unforgettable Bangkok Bike Tour!

5.00I had an amazing time on this bike tour through Bangkok, and Té did such a fantastic job as our guide! We saw so many hidden spots that we would have never discovered on our own, from quiet backstreets to vibrant local neighborhoods. Té gave the experience a really personal touch, making us feel welcome and excited to explore every corner. One of the highlights was feeding the turtles – such a unique and fun experience! Té was so warm and friendly, and you could tell he genuinely loves showing people the heart of Bangkok. It was a top-notch experience that we’ll remember fondly. Highly recommended!
Best experience of our Thailand trip

5.00This was the highlight of our trip to Thailand. Our guide, Woody, was excellent, and provided interesting information throughout the tour. We stopped at various places and there was time for us to hang around a little longer if we wanted to. Forget about the mass advertised and promoted expensive tourist attractions being "sold" by the taxi drivers, that leave you behind feeling cheated; instead, go on a bike tour!
A must do if you can ride a bike on narrow streets.

5.00The bike ride was great fun and took us to places that you wouldn’t go as a tourist. Riding through the middle China Town and the flower market was amazing. Kim was a fantastic guide - full of energy and very knowledgeable about the local area. 10/10.

5.00Highlight of my trip to Bangkok. Got to explore multiple alleyways and the rabbit warren complex that is Bang Rak area of Bangkok, on both sides of the river. Won't forget the experience of seeing the different areas and their sounds, smells, and sights, with kids playing outside, singing from churches, little cafes. We also stopped at several points for some street food, which was a real treat. Great way to spend a morning and will be left with an indelible memory of Bangkok beyond the tourist sights. Highly recommend.

5.00The local guide Qing is an friendly and polite tour leader. Tour is interesting and knowledgeable. Schedule for 4 hours tour but had exceeded more than 5 hours. Feel secure and safe as route management is well plan and smooth. Will join again if they plan for another route.
