Discovery of the “khlongs”, the famous canals of Bangkok

Explore the real Thai life by boat.

Over the years, Bangkok’s canals, known as “khlongs,” have been navigated by a variety of exotic boats, from the ubiquitous long-tail boats to noodle vendor canoes.

Your journey begins with an express boat ride along the Chao Phraya River, offering a relaxing cruise northwards to the town of Nonthaburi.

Here, take a short stroll through this village and visit a local market.

Afterward, return to the pier to board a long-tail boat that will take you into a canal system different from those near the city.

The peaceful scenes of rural canal life transport you to a simpler, more innocent time when days passed slowly.

After an hour, the appearance of speedboats signals a dramatic change in pace. Thrilling sensations await as high-speed navigation through narrow canals awakens the child within.

Another long-tail boat will take you to a local restaurant for lunch. Then, return by local transport to your hotel in Bangkok.
