About Tour
This amazing ‘Go Blue’ – Bangkok Electric Bike and Longtail Boat combo Tour starts with a weaving bicycle ride through an historic and culturally rich Bang Rak. Bang Rak means “Village of Love” and is surely loved by our cyclists. Our first stop is at the Old Customs House where hundreds of years ago merchants would pay taxes on the good they were bringing from all over the world. Followed by e-cycling through a Bangkok Muslim neighbourhood with Bangkok’s first Mosque we are well on our way into an adventure of a lifetime.
From there we will head north into the maze of winding alleys that combine to make up Bangkok’s Southern part of Bang Rak. The adventure through this part of Bangkok will give you a unique look on how Thailand’s residents have lived and worked for centuries with a brief stop at Bangkok’s 1st international phone line Post-Office, “Ancient” Warehouse 30, House #1 etc etc.
Not long from now we will embark on a ferry that takes us across the mighty Chao Phraya river into the Thonburi area. Thonburi was the former capital of Thailand with an abundance of culture to explore.
Next stop is the Portuguese community for refreshments and a pleasant look around the grounds and as you carry on along the river with amazing views watching the boats pass by. Wat Prayoon, Wat Kalayanamitr are next on the list.
Having explored several Temple Grounds of the old Siam we will now set the pace for Bangkok’s Tallest Buddha, the magical Wat Paknam. The final leg of the e-Bike stretch heading for lunch/Dinner near the Thai Artist house. Here we can see and almost feel the life how is once was over 200 years ago in this incredible Teak Wooden house. (Lunch/ Dinner stops may vary)
No that all is settled and filled up from a beautiful lunch/dinner) will embark on a long tail boat waiting for us together with our e-bikes to enjoy a 9 km journey long-tail boat ride through the ancient canals onto the Mighty Chao Phraya River back to the starting point. Get your cameras ready as you are in for a treat seeing the Venice of the east up and close from the comfort of your boat seat.
After you’ve taken in all the culture overload we disembark and take a short trip back to the HQ to unwind and discuss the day’s journey with your tour group, and plenty of soft drinks, or maybe even purchase a refreshing beer or two.
With a maximum of 8 people per group and a relaxed style, you’ll always have time to ask the guides questions about the things you see. The route is quite easy and suitable to people of all ages with plenty refreshment stops.
Although a little more demanding than The Go Red Guided Tour, this tour is suited to people of most ages. The ride can be tricky as we face a few swift turns and balancing skills would make your trip more pleasant. There is a general laid back feel to everything, with plenty of refreshment stops for those that are comfortable on an electric bicycle.
