Bangkok Tour by E-Tuk Tuk

Start your morning with a journey into Bangkok’s rich cultural heritage. At 8am you’ll meet your private guide and hop into an eco-friendly electric tuk-tuk to begin your exploration of the city’s historic heart. Glide along Ratchadamnoen Avenue, often compared to Paris’s Champs-Elysées, and take in landmarks like the Democracy Monument, Royal Ground, and the Grand Palace. Arrive at the charming boutique Riva Arun Hotel, where a rooftop stop offers panoramic views of the city’s iconic temples and the serene Chao Phraya River.

From here, you can take a short walk to Wat Pho, one of Bangkok’s oldest and most revered temples. Arriving in the early morning, you’ll witness the resident monks performing their serene morning chants, a deeply spiritual experience that highlights Thailand’s Buddhist traditions. Stroll the temple grounds to explore its treasures, including the famous Reclining Buddha, a magnificent 45-meter-long statue. Marvel at the intricate details of the Buddha’s footprint and observe locals making offerings - an invitation to partake in Thai cultural practices.

Continue your journey by electric tuk-tuk to Wat Suthat, a lesser-visited gem that offers a tranquil escape from the city’s bustling streets. Here, receive a private blessing from a monk, an intimate and spiritual experience steeped in Thai tradition. Just outside the temple, admire the iconic Giant Swing, a popular photo spot with its dramatic red frame standing against the sky.

A short stroll takes you to the Gingerbread House, or “Baan Kanom Pang Khing,” a century-old vintage home showcasing stunning traditional Thai architecture. Known for its elegant ambiance, the house serves up a delightful selection of traditional Thai desserts presented in luxurious sets. Pair your sweets with a refreshing cup of tea or coffee and relax in the timeless charm of this historic venue.

Conclude your morning with a tuk-tuk ride back to your hotel, enriched by the sights, sounds, and flavors of Bangkok’s old town.
