There are no particularly famous sights that you will see on this bike tour. It is all about exploring the city by bike away from the tourists and big roads, to see the real Bangkok where people live, work and play. We cycle along the Chao Phraya River and then pedal cross the river on the Rama 8 Bridge. From here we visit ancient temples and urban street life.
Bangkok Noi
Bangkok Noi is the name given to a large canal of the Chao Phraya River. Bike along the canal through tiny alleyways home to a Muslim community. After cycling over a bridge you bike the canal back the other way, this time passing Buddhist temples and one of Bangkok’s first train depots. If open you are in luck to visit a bronze bowl foundry and the old steam engines at the Thonburi train depot - such is the diversity of the city when you get in close.
Pass By: Giant Swing, Bamrung Muang Rd, Bangkok 10200 Thailand
After a local ferry to cross back over the river, our bike tour passes the Grand Palace where we take a walk through a public park that was once exclusively used by the royal family. After cycling more twisting alleyways, pedalling through a food market, you bike past rows of Buddhas and other sacred images. The area around the Giant Swing is where Buddha images are made and sold. The Giant Swing is one of the landmarks of the city and was once used for an important Hindu ceremony. From the Swing it is only a short bike ride back to the Grasshopper Shop.

An excellent tour that takes you off the busy streets of Bangkok and into some quiet neighbourhoods to visit various small temples around the city.
Fantastic trip, excellent staff, epic guide Tami. Saw parts of Bangkok that you would not normally see.
Nice trip which takes you through some mayor city points and through some backallys in Bangkok! There however, were no stops to take pictures, but we did have a 20 minute stop and walkaround I rather would have seen this turned around, but then again, maybe that's just me
