Overview

Discover a different side of Bangkok on this unique canal tour. Starting from a peaceful local temple, you’ll journey along quiet waterways away from the crowds and unlike other routes, you’ll skip the long wait at the city’s water locks, making for a smooth start to your adventure.

Along the way, visit a charming artist village where locals still live, create, and sell handmade crafts. Cruise past the majestic Big Buddha of Wat Paknam, a breathtaking sight from the water, and explore the stunning Reclining Buddha Temple at Wat Raja Oros a hidden gem only locals know.

The tour conveniently ends at BTS (sky train) Wutthakat, connecting you back to the city with ease.

What to expect

  1. Khlong Bang Luang Artist House
    20m
    Khlong Bang Luang Artist House
    As we glide through the canal, you’ll spot the Khlong Bang Luang Artist House – a quirky old wooden house that has become a hub for creativity and local life. Think street art murals, traditional puppet shows, and a splash of color right by the water. We won’t be stopping here, but it’s the kind of place that makes you want to wave, snap a photo, and say “Wow, Bangkok has secret gems everywhere!”
  2. Wat Ratcha Orasaram Ratchaworawihan (Chom Thong)
    20m
    Tucked away from Bangkok’s busiest tourist spots, this royal temple is a real hidden treasure. Built and restored during the reign of King Rama III, it’s famous for blending Thai and Chinese design in the most eye-catching way – colorful tiled roofs, detailed ceramic decorations, and elegant pavilions.

    Unlike the crowded temples in the city center, Wat Ratcha Orasaram is calm and peaceful, giving you space to slow down, look around, and enjoy the details. Inside, you’ll find beautiful murals and plenty of corners that are perfect for quiet photos. It’s a place where history, art, and serenity come together making it one of those secret Bangkok experiences that most travelers miss
