Hidden Gems of Bangkok Tour

On this boat tour, we'll cruise the canals of Bangkok to explore lesser-known places in the Thai capital. We will also visit the Wat Paknam temple and see the majestic Big Buddha.

Tour Details

We will meet at Maharaj Port at the designated time for a boat ride through Bangkok's canals. We'll board a traditional long-tail boat and sail for one hour, during which we will discuss daily life and ancient traditions of the locals.

After the boat ride, we will visit the Wat Paknam temple to see the Big Buddha, which is over 60 meters (200 feet) tall and was completed in 2021. We will also explain the temple's name related to its location along the Bangkok canals.

Next, we will travel briefly by public transport to the Wat Kalayanamit temple, a peaceful space for monks that promotes meditation and study.

Afterwards, we will visit the Portuguese district of Bangkok, where we will see the Catholic church of Santa Cruz, which has served the community since its establishment.

After four hours, we will use public transport again to go to Chinatown and conclude the tour.

Partial Closures

Due to construction until June 2025, the Big Buddha can only be viewed from the outside.
