An amazing and unforgettable bicycle ride to explore the real life of the local people in Bangkok and escape the busy city into the greenest heart of Bangkok.
This Bangkok cycle tour will show you this remarkable city in a different light. Explore the backstreets of Bangkok while the city comes alive on this morning or afternoon bike tour.
We give you an insight in the life of the local people. We cross a wooden bridge and explore communities built under the highway and next to the railway. This part of the tour will give you a very good understanding of daily rituals of the local people. After a drink stop we will cycle to the pier where we will cross the Chao Praya river by long tail boat and travel to the green heart of Bangkok.
The city of Bangkok feels so far away while we cycle over elevated pathways through nature, where we spot the occasional monitor lizard or turtles bathing in the sun. This stunning green lush area has many old plantations which we pass by and is a great contrast of Bangkok.
On the way back we stop in this serene oasis to sit down and enjoy a cold soft-drink and snack. After this break we cycle back to our long tail boat and cross the river where you can experience a stunning and different view of Bangkok’s high-rise buildings and cycle back to our shop.
This was a fantastic way to see Bangkok. We traveled through the backstreets and sampled some great local food. Our guides Lily and Ming were extremely professional, kept us safe and were very friendly and informative. A must for anyone visiting Bangkok!

Ended up having a private tour, lucky me! Tom was a knowledgeable, funny guide who took care of me, made sure I had every photo op and took me on an unforgettable ride through parts of Bangkok I never would have seen - I highly recommend if you're looking for something unique and off the beaten path :)

We travelled to Thailand a few days before joining a tour of IndoChina and booked this ride to fill in a half day and see a bit more of the non-touristy parts of Bangkok and the surrounding countryside. There were only three of us on our session, my wife and I plus our guide, Aon I think I spelt that correctly. _br/_ Aon took us on a ride through the backstreets of Bangkok where we got to see how the working Thais lived - quite an eyeopener. All our questions were answered openly and we got to understand a lot more about how people lived, both the good and bad aspects. We then took a ferry over to the Green Bangkok area where we cycled around on raised roads through the smallholdings. It was great to get clear of the city for a while and not have to breath traffic fumes. Plenty of wildlife, including large green spiders, and a welcome stop for a drink and snacks. Back on the ferry to the city and a short ride through the crazy traffic back to base. A great way to spend 4 hours or so to see a very different side to Bangkok with a truly excellent guide. Bikes were fine. Highly recommended.
