Full description
This 3-hour bike tour of Bangkok is ideal for enthusiastic adventurers and those who want to extend their knowledge of Bangkok to its extensive Chinatown, historic capital of Thonburi and hidden backstreets. Starting in the heart of Chinatown, the 3-hour tour explores the frenetic market environment, winding through narrow streets and alleyways. Your senses will come alive to the sights, sounds, and smells of a vibrant community in motion. We will pass by shop houses selling everything from Buddhist amulets to recycled truck engines. Locals worshiping at hidden temples, ritual paper burnings, and the omnipresent spirit house display evidence of a culture that has been centuries in the making. Cross the Chao Phraya River, with majestic views of the city skyline behind you, and visit Thonburi, the historic third capital of Thailand. Contrasting chaotic Chinatown, peaceful elements of local Thai life abound as you cycle through diverse residential communities. Inquisitive smiles and friendly greetings reinforce the feeling that you have truly left behind the beaten path and are now experiencing the authentic Thailand on this thrilling tour of a Bangkok less well-known.

    We had an amazing biking tour with Bobby & Chelsea, our smiling cool guides, around Bangkok during this 3 hours guided visit! Idéal to explore better Bangkok in small streets you won’t even think of or dare to take, discover cute areas, local shops, visit a temple, prepare a gift for Buddha, smell the flavors at the flower market. Every detail was thoughtful and excursion really well organized. Thank you!

    Perfectly organized tour. Entertaining (3.5 hours) and without any real effort. Nevertheless, thanks to the heat, sweaty in between. Lots of backyards and markets, temples and turtles. You should be able to ride a bike safely and practiced, because it often gets quite narrow. Really recommended! Greats from the Swiss Mountain Guy

    The tour is a lot of fun and you see corners of Bangkok that you wouldn't otherwise see. Some of the streets are a bit narrow, but you can push your bike at any time. I would do the tour again in a heartbeat and would happily recommend it. Pop and Peace were great guides - Thank you!
