Highlights


The exact order of the tour may change depending on whether you opt to do the tour in the morning or late afternoon, but the main program stays the same.

This is a private tour, so we will pick you up from your hotel and depending on your location we will start the tour by using public transport to get to an old traditional house along the canal.

At “The Artists House” you will have an opportunity to do an art excerise (with painting or bracelet making), while enjoying a drink and watching boats go by. After this you will jump in a traditional long-tail boat and explore life along the canals before heading back to the Chao Phraya River. You will say goodbye to our boat driver at The Flower Market where we will explore the market and learn how to fold lotuses.

Then it’s time to meet your tuk tuks drivers to explore the old part of Bangkok. Enjoy whizzing around and passing sights in your tuk tuks.

After a quick stop for dinner (or lunch) in a family friendly local restaurant we will stop at the Golden Mount Temple (Wat Saket) where the adventure continues as you climb to the top. If you are doing the tour in the afternoon you may get to enjoy the sunset. Once you get down again it is time to say goodbye and our drivers will take you back to your hotel or to a local station if you prefer to use public transport.

This tour lasts approximately 5 hours. This tour can be run at any time of day starting between 8am and 3pm. However, it is best to avoid the midday heat.

Alternatives: For those without young children you may also want to consider our regular night tour - Bangkok Night Lights Tuk Tuk Tour which we can offer as a private tour with a long-tail boat ride add on.

  • - Several of our tuk tuks now have transparent roofs. However, we cannot guarantee every tuk tuk will have such a roof.
  • - Normally there will be 2 people per tuk tuk, However, when odd number of passengers or children (on child rates) there may be 3 people per tuk tuk.

Make a Booking:

  • - Advanced booking is required.
  • - If you have special requests or a large group we can customize this tour as a private tour for you.
