Description
Begin your journey in a central, well-connected area before hopping on the BTS Skytrain, Bangkok’s lifeline for everyday commuters. As you glide above the streets, your guide explains how public transport reshaped the city’s growth and daily rhythms. Step off to explore Bangkok Old City, where you’ll walk through quieter lanes filled with community temples, incense shops, and traditional street life. Visit Wat Suthat, known for its elegant architecture and murals that depict Thai beliefs and folklore beyond royal grandeur. Continue toward Soi Ban Bat, a rare artisan neighborhood where monks’ alms bowls are still handcrafted using centuries-old techniques. Your guide shares how this craft survives in modern Bangkok. Later, switch to the MRT to reach Chinatown Bangkok, where Thai-Chinese heritage, markets, and street scenes collide. Enjoy time observing daily life, learning about migration stories, and discovering how food, trade, and belief systems merged here. The tour ends near a central metro station, with recommendations on where to eat, shop, or continue exploring independently.Includes
