Itinerary

  • Start of Tour (9:30AM)

    Gather at the Grasshopper Adventures: Near MRT Sam Yot station at 9:30 am. The tour will depart at 10:00AM sharp. Make sure you allow plenty of time for arrival, taking into account the heavy Bangkok traffic.
  • Start Cycling

    After a quick bike fitting and briefing, you'll hit the bikes. We will be cycling off the main road on small lanes, alleyways and canal boats to immerse you in the soul of Bangkok.
  • Santa Cruz Wat Kalayanami

    Hop on a ferry and cycle to the communities of Santa Cruz Wat Kalayanamit. Here, along the banks of the Chao Phraya River is where Bangkok first began. Park your bikes at the first Christian community of Santa Cruz to visit the descendants of the early Portuguese traders who have been making Portuguese cupcakes for over 5 generations. Then, pedal to the neighboring Chinese Thai temple of Wat Kalayanamit and the site of Bangkok's first Chinatown. Wat Kalyanamit houses Bangkok's largest sitting Buddhist image.
  • Wat Hongrattanaram

    Park your bikes briefly to see a shrine devoted to the first king of Bangkok, Taksin. The Chapel of Wat Hongrattanaram is the largest in Thonburi and, according to some, the most beautiful in Bangkok.
  • Khlong Bang Luang and the Artist’s Village

    Cycling back lanes and pedaling along small tree-lined canals, we will arrive at an old wooden market with a historic community temple. Centuries ago, trading communities formed along the canals on the outskirts of Bangkok to buy the goods coming to market from the outlying farms and orchards. The former wealth of these trading communities can be seen in the elegant architecture of the temples they left behind.
  • Lunch by the Canal

    Enjoy a local Thai lunch by the Bang Luang Canal, in the grounds of the community temple. Thailand is known for its variety of spices and flavors and your meal will surely be a highlight of the day.
  • Traditional Thai Puppet Show

    This activity cannot be guaranteed as it depends on the artists' variable schedule. A group of artists has taken up residence in a 200-year-old traditional wooden house on the banks of Khlong Bang Luang. Marvel at a show of the most unique puppetry you may ever see, as the art is combined with traditional Khon dance by the Hoon Lek puppeteers. The modern inhabitants of the old wooden trading houses these days sell artwork and vintage crafts as well as fish food for you to feed the abundant fish in the canal.
  • Long-tail Boat Cruise

    Ply the Canals and the Chao Phraya River. After stowing the bikes in the back of a long tail boat, you and your guide make your way down the ancient canals to Chao Phraya River. Sailing up the River of the Kings, you will pass the Grand Palace before docking near Khaosan Rd.
  • End of Tour (3:30PM)

    Once you’ve disembarked from the boat with your bike, pedal a short distance back to the Grasshopper shop to finish the tour around 3:30 pm. The bike tour usually takes 4 - 5 hours but this is variable by group.
