Bangkok: Backstreets and Temple Historic Bike Tour
Sure, you can hit all the temples you want in one day. And you can visit the floating markets. But seeing the real Bangkok, the one that locals know and a lot of tourists don’t? For that you’ll have to hop on a bike. This 4-hour guided bike tour brings you down the backstreets and to street food venders serving up delicious snacks you’d never find on your own. This is a small group tour, which means more attention from the guide.
This bike tour with 15 Kilometers is all about exploring a very different side of Bangkok. We won't be cycling to anywhere famous, instead get ready to take in the real Bangkok, where normal people live in the jumble of laneways that few people ever explore. Get ready for true cultural immersion on two wheels!
