Boat Trips in Bangkok

Experience Bangkok from a completely different perspective by exploring its historic waterways and iconic riverside attractions. Known for centuries as the “Venice of the East,” Bangkok offers unforgettable boat trips that reveal the city’s traditional lifestyle, floating markets, wooden stilt houses, temples, and vibrant canal communities.

Discover the ancient Thonburi canals (khlongs) on a relaxing two-hour longtail boat tour. These waterways were once the primary transport routes for locals before modern roads were built, and today they remain one of the best ways to witness authentic canal-side life in Bangkok. As you cruise through the quiet backwaters, you’ll pass charming wooden homes, local markets, historic temples, and daily scenes that showcase the city’s cultural heritage.

Just a short walk from Chinatown, you can easily find longtail boats ready to take you across the Chao Phraya River and deep into the Thonburi canal network. Whether you’re seeking culture, sightseeing, photography opportunities, or a peaceful escape from the busy streets, boat trips in Bangkok offer a unique experience you won’t find anywhere else.
