What you can expect

The Rice Barge Afternoon Cruise and Long-tailed Boat tour offers a unique and relaxing way to explore the traditional waterways and vibrant life along the Chao Phraya River and Bangkok's intricate canal (klong) system. This half-day experience is ideal for travellers looking to discover Bangkok's historic charm, local culture, and scenic river views while enjoying the comforts of both a long-tailed boat and a traditional rice barge.

Make your own way to the Pier to travel by express boat along the Bangkok canals. Travel through exotic flora and picturesque canal houses, before joining a converted Rice Barge cruise on the Chao Phraya river. All you need to do on this tour is sit back, relax and take in the amazing Thai scenery. Complimentary soft drinks and local fruits will be served on-board.

The rivers and canals around Bangkok serve as a natural highway for many local Thai people going about their everyday business. The people of Bangkok still depend on the waterways to transport their merchandise, in particular rice, as the canals are linked to the rice fields.

The Rice Barge Afternoon Cruise and Long-tailed Boat Tour provides a peaceful and enriching way to explore the waterways of Bangkok. Blending adventure with relaxation, it offers a unique look at both the modern and traditional sides of the city. From the bustling canals filled with local life to the serene cruise along the Chao Phraya River, this tour is a perfect blend of culture, history, and scenic beauty, making it a must-do experience for visitors to Bangkok.
