Get on Your Bike

Posted by Sukhumwit Steve on October 1st, 2010 filed in Day trips, Sightseeing

Leaving from 88 Samsen soi 2, just around the corner from Khaosan Road, the Bangkok Historical Bike Tour is the ideal way to get fit, meet new people and see the sights of Bangkok.

The historic part of Bangkok shows the true heart of this bustling city. By cycling through the back roads and small laneways, you can discover that there is much more to this city than traffic-clogged roads and high-rise buildings.

While cycling through the quiet ’sois’ and lanes that make up much of the city, you will discover ancient temples and life by the Chao Phraya River. We will visit famous places such as the Temple of Dawn with the largest bronze Buddha image in Thailand, but we will also take the time to see how people live their everyday lives.

Itinerary:
Meet at the Velo Thailand Bike Shop near Khao San Rd at 1pm. After a quick bike fitting and briefing we will head out. Staying off the main roads, we wind our way through small laneways, passing ancient temples and canals along the way so as to experience the true heart and soul of Bangkok.

The tour usually takes three to four hours, depending on the group’s pace.
