Description

Explore Bangkok’s small canals on a private 1-hour tour without a tour guide in a traditional Thai flat boat, with a friendly local driver. *This is a non-stop cruise with no sightseeing stops* Along the way, you’ll see: ⏺ Meeting Point: Start at Wat Mai Yai Nui (Wutthakat 24) in Thonburi. ⏺ Cruise Along Khlong Dan: Once a historic toll point from the Sukhothai to Ayutthaya period, this canal was where taxes were collected from foreign trading boats. Along the way, admire a mix of old and modern houses and historic temples. ⏺ The 2 Giant Buddhas Views: At Khlong Dan, spot two large Buddha statues, Wat Pak Nam on the left and Wat Khun Chan on the right. ⏺ Wat Pak Nam Phasi Charoen: This beautiful Ayutthaya-period temple feels like a little island. See the stunning 69-meter-tall Buddha statue, the tallest in Bangkok, and the beautiful Great Pagoda with its Emerald Glass Pagoda holding a sacred Buddha relic. ⏺ Bang Luang Canal Community: Discover this charming community, once a bustling market and trade route. Don’t miss the Artist House, an old wooden home from the Ayutthaya era, now a creative space centered around an ancient stupa. ⏺ More Canal Routes: Cruise through side canals like Bang Waek, Bang Chuek Nang, and Sanam Chai to see the traditional riverside life, old wooden houses, and green gardens. ⏺ Flexible Drop-off: After the tour, you can choose where to end—stay at a temple, market, or head back to a BTS or MRT station. Just tell your boat driver what you prefer! _____________________ ✆ We will provide the tour details, meeting point instructions, and taxi assistance via WhatsApp or Email as per your provided contact information.
