Explore the Chao Phraya River, getting a closer look at the many wonders of this important waterway. Cruise through narrow canals where quiet, traditional villages sit on the water’s edge. Then visit Wat Arun and the Grand Palace, two iconic monuments nestled on the banks of the River.
Pick up at either 08:00 or 13:00. Take a longtail boat through Bangkok’s canals to discover the city’s local ways of life and iconic monuments. Start with a ride along the Chao Phraya River, also known as the ‘River of Kings’. Admire the passing skyline where glittering pagodas stand in the shadows of towering skyscrapers.
The boat then turns off the main waterway and onto the canals, or ‘klongs’. See why Bangkok is often called the ‘Venice of the East’ while cruising along the intricate network of canals. Capture glimpses of small villages on the water’s edge and enjoy the slower pace of life away from the city center.
Cruise back onto the Chao Phraya to visit Wat Arun, a 79-meter high pagoda built in a style similar to Angkor Wat. Meaning ‘Temple of Dawn’, Wat Arun is one of Thailand’s most beautiful temples.
Cross the river and disembark at one of Bangkok’s busiest piers. Take a short walk to the glittering Grand Palace, which has been the seat of Thailand's revered Royal family for more than two centuries. Explore this spectacular complex of palaces, temples, and museums, and learn about the history of the Royals. Before leaving, pay a visit to the Emerald Buddha image, one of Thailand’s most sacred statues.
After this fabulous excursion along Bangkok’s klongs, return to the hotel.
