A wonderful way to see the real and old Bangkok. Winding through tiny alley ways and even through people’s houses seeing them go about their daily lives. Joab our guide was great, he was caring, and a true local. Our teenage boys loved it, it go them active while getting a completely different experience. Highly recommend.
An awesome bike ride with Jobe. Got to see a lot of places in old Bangkok that tourists would not normally see. Jobe spoke English so well and was a wealth of knowledge. Excellent bikes in great condition with gears were provided and so was a beautiful coffee and Thai lunch. We loved every minute. We highly recommend however it is for capable riders as there are many narrow paths with steep drop offs and some busy roads.
I had an absolutely fantastic time on this bike tour; it’s a completely different side of Bangkok that most people never get to see. Instead of the usual tourist spots, we rode through quiet canals, past local homes ranging from modest to middle-class, and into peaceful natural areas that felt worlds away from the city’s buzz. What made it so special was how real it felt, like briefly stepping into everyday life in Bangkok rather than just observing it from the outside. A huge thank you to Arne and his wife for their warm hospitality. They made the whole experience feel personal and genuine. I couldn’t recommend this tour more if you’re looking to discover the true heartbeat of Bangkok beyond the usual highlights.
Thank you very much for this morning bike ride in Bangkok's green district. Guided tour by Elijah who taught us and showed us picturesque neighborhoods. We made two stops including one for lunch by the river. Oh, great. I highly recommend this activity with Bangkok by bike
Fantastic opportunity to explore some of the parts of Bangkok you would be unlikely to come across without a guide. From the houses on stilts by the canal to the floating market under the railway bridge, it was an amazing experience. Arne is a friendly and informative guide, and I would thoroughly recommend this tour.
A well organised and professional tour with culture and safety a priority. Jobe was a grrat guide and looked after us very well. The inclusions are great and good value.
Yeah, great. See where the residents of Bangkok live. Wealth and poverty side by side.
Arnie was wonderful!! Showed us all parts of Bangkok and the culture. We loved it. Tough in certain areas to ride with kids in tow but we made it work and felt safe and loved the adventure.
Thanks for your nice review and support. I really appreciate you took your time to describe your experience from your visit.
Great trip through different neighborhoods that you don’t normally see in Bangkok. Arne was a great guide and we got the tour in danish :)
For those who want to have a vision of Bangkok, this tour is a must. Great guide, knowing perfectly his tour and his city. If you see traffic in Bangkok, don't be afraid to take this bike tour, you will only pass safely in unlikely places
Merci beaucoup, trés gentile!
