tour 5: Day Tour
For the hearty adventurer or for those who just which to extend their bicycle tour experience a bit more.
Join us for an all day exploration that will take us to the outskirts of Bangok by way of classic railway and back using the ultra-modern city icon, the skytrain.
In between, pedal-power and longttail boats will bring us into a world of fascination far removed from central Bangkok and traditional tourist sites.
On this tour, we will see scintillating beauty combined with amazing contrasts: modern lifestyles derived from classic traditions, Buddhist temples coexisting harmoniously with Muslim mosques, and frenetic urban sprawl givng way to gentle rural landscapes.
Most importantly, you will see the many faces of Bangkok as few else have and in a way that you will not soon forget.
