    A guided bike tour is a great way to explore the highlights of Bangkok.

      The Chao Phraya River is the lifeline of central Thailand and runs through Bangkok as one of the country's most important transport and trade centers. With a length of around 372 kilometers, it rises from the confluence of the Ping and Nan rivers in Nakhon Sawan and finally flows into the Gulf of Thailand. The river is not only economically important, but is also culturally and historically closely linked to the development of Bangkok.

      Along its banks are some of Bangkok's most famous sights, including the magnificent Grand Palace, the impressive Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) and the modern IconSiam shopping center. A boat trip on the Chao Phraya is particularly attractive, be it on the public express boats, private longtail boats or luxurious dinner cruises. During the trip, you can enjoy a unique view of the mix of historic temples, modern high-rises and traditional stilt houses that characterize the cityscape along the river.

      For cyclists, the river is a good reference point for exploring different parts of the city and attractions. A trip to Bang Krachao, often referred to as the “green lung of Bangkok”, is particularly recommended. This peninsula on the western side of the river is a paradise for nature and cycling lovers.

      The famous Taling Chan river market and the Pak Khlong Talad flower market are also easily accessible via the Chao Phraya. Those who want to experience Bangkok's waterways can also explore the khlongs, the traditional canals. They offer a glimpse of old Bangkok before roads became the main means of transport.
