Packed with bustling markets, street food vendors, temples and colorful graffiti-Bangkok is as energetic as a city can get! Step off the tourist trail and see the alternative side of Bangkok with me.
Let's dive into this private tour with a visit to a local market. Stroll through the vibrant aisles and see how and what locals buy to cook authentic Thai cuisine. I'll give you our secrets for choosing the best ingredients!
Check out a unique community temple, an ancient Thai-Chinese structure in the middle of modern Bangkok. As we move towards China Town, see a famous graffiti piece by a well-known Thai artist. Every corner has something exciting and unique in store for you!
Continue strolling towards Chinatown where we can find a hidden gem, a 230-year-old temple, nestled in the alleys at the beginning of China Town. Head up to a rooftop bar for a truly stunning view of the city & the Chao Phraya river. Enjoy a tasty drink, watch the boats sail by and get a better understanding of the city from above.
Ever wondered how the locals live in this magnificent city? You can have the chance to visit a real local home and gain deeper insights into how life is in beautiful Bangkok.
Finish the tour in your style - want to go shopping with my guidance in China Town? Or would you rather see the temple which hosts the biggest gold Buddha in the world? The choice is yours!
Join me in exploring this urban jungle! I can always 100% customize this tour to your wishes.
