Bangkok Canal Boat and Bike Tour
- Reach Wat Arun and start the tour from Itsaraphap Road. Get fit yourself to your bike and a helmet (optional) by the instructor.
- Before you head off, your guide will give you a safety briefing and some history about the area and what you will see as you cycle around.
Make the first stop at Wat Klang Market; here, your guide will take you around this fresh market to try some local fruits while taking in the aromas and tastes of local culinary delights.
Continue cycling through a vibrant mix of local Thai communities and then stopping at Wat Khun, a riverside temple. The main features of the temple are large statues of Buddha along with images from the Ramakien.
Cross the canal from Wat Khun Chan and make sure you look to your right to see the elephant statues.
Visit Wat Pak Nam, a beautiful local temple with a glass stupa. There, your guide will tell you about the history of Thai culture and Buddhism.
Finish a few hours cycling and stop at a canal-side restaurant to have delicious Thai lunch. There, you'll also be able to look around Baan Silapin, an old Thai house that has been turned gallery with local artwork, photography & a puppet theatre.
Cycle through the local riverside and explore the aptly named Rooster Temple - a local temple surrounded by roosters. Plus, you’ll get to feed the fish for some extra karma!
Board a long-tail speedboat for the journey back. On the way, you’ll get to see local Thai villagers that live and work alongside the canal. If you’re lucky, you might spot a monitor lizard on your journey.
Head back to the base point, and your tour comes to an end here.
