• T530: Exploration of Bang Kachao

    • TOUR OVERVIEW Price from: 1,550 - 3,350 Baht

    Bang Khachao is often called the green lung of Bangkok. This leafy district has resisted the rampant construction boom and offers a haven of peace and relaxation. Its quiet streets and elevated walkways make it ideal for cycling and the perfect way to explore this tranquil part of Bangkok.

    TOUR DESCRIPTION

    Our local Bangkok guide will pick you up from your hotel to explore Bang Khachao, Bangkok's green lung. We'll take public transport to the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok's Klong Tuey district and cross over in a longtail boat. Once in Bang Khachao, we'll hop on our bikes and explore this green oasis. You'll immediately notice the tranquility and lush greenery – a stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of Bangkok you left behind just 15 minutes earlier! Our route is flexible and can be tailored to your fitness level and preferences: cycling or sightseeing. We'll cycle to the quieter corners of Bang Khachao, where narrow, elevated walkways are the only way to get around. Along the way, we'll visit the Sri Nakhon Khuean Khan Botanical Garden and the Siamese Fighting Fish Gallery. Finally, you'll enjoy a typical lunch in the relaxed atmosphere of Bang Khachao. We'll also stop at a small incense stick factory along the way. We'll end the day at the Bangkok Tree House with refreshments and local pastries. If you're taking the tour on a Saturday, we'll definitely make a stop at the lively Bang Nam Phueng Floating Market. This market caters to locals and Thai day-trippers alike. Besides fresh fruits and vegetables, you'll find a wealth of interesting food. It's an ideal spot for a typical Thai lunch! Please note: We use public transportation for transfers to and from the boat pier at the Bang Khachao intersection. No minibus or private transport is provided. This is a great way to experience authentic Bangkok up close. Depending on your hotel's location and the availability of local transportation on the day, you may use the Skytrain, subway, taxi, or tuk-tuk. As not all factors are always predictable, we ask that you be somewhat flexible on this tour. Please approach the tour with an open mind and a sense of adventure. Also, please be aware that this tour includes a significant amount of cycling, and Bangkok can be hot and tiring. Therefore, a reasonable level of fitness is required, as well as the acceptance that you will be cycling in hot weather.
