Cycle Old Bangkok by bike and long-tail boat, then enjoy a canal-side Thai lunch with a small English-speaking guide team.

Along the way you really see everything: rich and poor side by side, stunning buildings, and even monitor lizards resting in the water along the banks. After that we enjoyed an authentic Thai lunch — and I mean real Thai style: seriously spicy 🔥 We got back on our bikes, covered several highlights, and ended at the Big Buddha.
