Talad Noi and Local Experiences

Our driver picks you up at your Bangkok hotel at 8:45am and drives you to our office. After meeting up with your guide at our main office, you’ll start the bike tour heading towards some of the capital's most interesting heritage sites, in the Talad Noi district. Here, at one of Bangkok’s oldest riverside communities, you’ll explore an overflow of local cultures and contrasting street art. Passing through this intense and authentic district on our bicycles, you’re sure to be amazed. Enter into a local shrine and perform a sacrificial offering of worship by burning joss paper.



White Chedi, Chinatown and Flower market

Continue your adventure and pay a visit to the uncrowded Wat Prayoon, located in a lush compound, where you’ll get to walk inside the White Chedi and feed their many turtles. Board the local ferry to cross over to the Chinatown district, a place you must cycle through to really experience its energetic environment. The area dates back to the 16th Century, when early Chinese settlers were based along the Chao Phraya River. Here there will also be stops along the way to taste some local street food.



On the way back, explore Bangkok’s gigantic Flower Market. This is one of the world’s biggest flower markets, and you’re sure to be captivated by the kaleidoscope of smells and colors, with millions of flowers and vegetables for sale here.



If you want to learn about Bangkok’s rich past and develop a sense of orientation in the region, this is the ideal way to see a side to the city you're unlikely to find on your own.
