Overview

    See the different side of Bangkok on a boat cruise along Bangkok's "Khlongs" or small canals. Catch a glimpse of local life in this guided excursion as the longtail boat sail to hard-to-reach sites. Listen as the expert guide fills you in on the city's vast history and how it became the frenetic metropolis it is today. You have the option to include a guided tour to some of Bangkok's most impressive temples.

    No worries about the language barrier, an English-speaking guide will lead you all the way. Board a long-tail boat at a nearby pier and sail down the Chao Phraya. Enjoy amazing backdrop views of the Bangkok skyline, before making a turn to enter the klongs. Pass a range of local wooden stilt houses with clothes hanging to be dried in the sun. Make a stop at the temple Wat Khun Chan where you will see postmodern temples on one side of the klongs. Prepare for a remarkable sight when hundreds of fish come to the surface. Witness several houses on stilts and observe how locals live in small houses on the river. Join the locals for lunch at one of the busy riverside street stalls.
