Description

Hop on a typical Thai long-tail boat and explore the canals of Thonburi, once the capital of Thailand, with a fun local guide. During our 2-hour canal adventure, you will explore the klongs (canals) and get a glimpse of how the local people live. Elderly people sit on the wooden docks of their tiny homes overlooking the canal, women hang laundry to dry, and children jump into the water and swim in the canal…it’s a wonderful slice of local life! We will make a stop at Baan Silapin (The Artist’s House), a traditional wooden Thai house that has been converted into a public space to preserve art and traditional performance styles such as puppetry. Later, we will pass Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen – built in the mid-Ayutthaya period in the Phasi Charoen District in Thonburi. The boat driver will stop the boat so that you can take a good photo of the huge Buddha statue at this temple.
