1Chao Phraya River
Explore the charming side of Bangkok with a long tail boat tour. Begin your journey at River City Shopping Mall, where you'll meet your guide and embark on a captivating adventure. Delve into Thonburi, the city's former independent province, which remained separate until its merger with Bangkok in 1971. Discover the local way of life, a rarely glimpsed facet of the city, as you traverse the historic canals. In the past, these waterways made Bangkok famous as the "Venice of the East." The klongs served as vital transportation routes, bustling floating markets, and even sewage disposal. While many of Bangkok's khlongs have been filled in, the Thonburi region on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River still preserves these iconic waterways.
