Itinerary

Pass by

Starting in the heart of Chinatown, our bike ride explores its frenetic market environment. Winding through narrow alleyways, our senses come alive with the sights, sounds, and smells of a community in motion. We’ll pass by shophouses 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 centuries in the making.

Pass by

Crossing the Chao Phraya River to Thailand's former capital, Thonburi. We cross either by cycling over the bridge, or take a local ferry.

Bankok behind the scenes with Whiskey and Grace!

Guides Whiskey and Grace very and very expertly taken behind the scenes of Bankok. From the start the communication is completely clear (and yet we were 5 min late:-) because of our mistake. Bikes are really fine and then the adventure begins. Each time Whiskey explains well where you are and what you see and the interplay with Grace, who helps very well, is very good. As the site says, they also show a lot without telling. Just take it in and experience it. You have to be able to cycle and steer and handle narrow roads, but that went really well in the group! Their contribution to the small business owner and local community is beautiful. Buying soft drinks at a small shop here and eating together at a small family shop there. Great food. Good food. No joke! Beer and enjoy! The tour of ours was 5 hours and time has flown. Thank Whiskey and Grace!! Great job, man!

An amazing experience! We had the best tour guides: AU, BB, and Bonnie! We saw a lot of different places and even went with the longtail boat. We also had amazing fruit at a floating market and later on we had a delicious dinner!

Bicycling Bangkok with Bob and Gina

We enjoyed a lovely ride today with Bob and Gina. Bicycles and helmets were available. We were a party of 4 - our little one is not yet so secure on the bicycle so a childseat was available. We stoppen at the best locations and received lost of information on the locations. Thanks for guiding us through the small streets and slighty lesser known parts of Bangkok. We’ll look for your colleagues in Chiang Mai.

Best activity of our stay in Bangkok

Super fun family activity! Our group consisted of four families and we went out with a guide and two extra escorts! During the tour you will get a nice tour of certain parts of Bangkok, you will get to know different faces of the city! Very pleasant guide, friendly, helpful and with humor! Several stops to see things. You will also get some drinks and snacks along the way, you will cross the river on a ferry! Enjoyable experience, also tailored to children. We choose a very quiet pace so that young and old can go along - we found the trip very comfortable and physically easy (we have ordinary basic condition).

A very Nice and comfortable tour

We had a perfect tour today with our family (children 10 and 15 years old). The tour was very interesting and relaxing. Cycling through China town, going by long tail boat to the orther (green) side of the River and cycling through the green outskirts of Bangkok was a very nice experience. We had a very good lunch! Thanks to our georgeous guides, lady Champagne and mister Nine, we had a lovely afternoon, which we will remember for a long time!
