Description

Start your beautiful journey with a ride on a traditional long-tail boat, often called a 'James Bond boat,' and discover the charming way of life along Bangkok’s canals in the historic Thonburi district. Thonburi was once the capital of Siam, and its winding canals (known locally as khlongs) still showcase a slower, timeless way of life. As you cruise along, take in scenes of wooden houses on stilts, humble temples, local schools, and rustic shop-houses all connected by narrow wooden walkways that trace the canal’s edge. Watch locals go about their daily routines — children playing by the water, residents feeding fish, and merchants tending their small riverside stalls. Your next stop is Wat Arun, or the Temple of Dawn, one of Bangkok’s most iconic landmarks. Marvel at its towering central prang (spire) adorned with delicate porcelain mosaics that shimmer in the changing light. Climb partway up the tower for a breathtaking panoramic view over the Chao Phraya River — known as the River of Kings — and gaze across to the old city of Bangkok. As your guide shares fascinating stories of Thai history and culture, take the opportunity to capture stunning photos of the temple and the riverside scenery. This twilight tour offers a perfect blend of local life, rich heritage, and striking city views, giving you a deeper appreciation of Bangkok beyond its busy streets and modern skyscrapers.
