Highlights
In the heart of Bangkok, where the neon signs flicker and tuk-tuks weave through the chaos, lies a parallel universe—the clandestine web of back alleys and sub-lanes. These narrow passages, like whispered secrets, are etched into the city’s skin. Step into the labyrinth, where the air smells of incense and stir-fried noodles. The walls lean in, their faded murals telling tales of forgotten dynasties and star-crossed lovers. But it’s the canals that truly beckon—a network of liquid veins crisscrossing the city. Ride alongside long-tail boats, its engine sputtering to life, and glide along the waterways. The houses here stand on stilts, their wooden foundations submerged. Peek into their lives: a woman washing clothes, a child feeding fish, an old man repairing a fishing net. The canals pulse with stories—of love, loss, and resilience. Then Three parks await you—each a refuge from the urban frenzy.
Inclusions
What's included
- Coffee is my treat just before we hop onto the ferry to explore the man-made island of Bang Kra Jao, also known as Bangkok’s ‘Green Lung.’
- Try the delicious local Northeastern Thai cuisine restaraunt, which, although not famous among travelers or visitors to the area, is incredibly popular among the locals.
Itinerary
Ride through Benjakitti Park, we'll do a few warmup laps here where a lush oasis born from royal generosity. Back in 2004, it emerged on land once owned by the Tobacco Authority of Thailand, a tribute to Queen Sirikit’s 72nd birthday. But rewind to 1992—the year the Queen turned 60 (5th cycle)—and you’ll find its earlier life, hence the name “Bejakitti” (5 cycles), bestowed by Queen Sirikit herself during the grand opening.
Finally we end at our final destination, Si Nakhon Khuean Khan Park, nestled within the Phrapradaeng Peninsula, is a green haven with a twist. Originally a tobacco pond, it transformed into a public park in 2004, honoring Queen Sirikit’s 72nd birthday. The name “Benjakitti” (meaning 5 cycles) pays homage to the Queen’s 60th birthday. Here, landscaped gardens meet wild pockets, attracting migratory birds. A large lake, a birdwatching tower, and cycling tracks beckon. So pedal forth, explore, and perhaps catch a glimpse of the elusive monitor lizards

About Bangkok
Bangkok is Thailand's exuberant capital, where gilded temples and royal palaces line the river amid street-food stalls, markets and skyscrapers.
The Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, home of the revered Emerald Buddha, glitter on the old royal island of Rattanakosin. Next door, Wat Pho shelters a giant reclining Buddha and a famous school of Thai massage, and across the Chao Phraya River the porcelain-studded spires of Wat Arun glow at sunset.
Top-ranked sights in Bangkok: Temple of the Dawn (Wat Arun), Bangkok Chinatown (Yaowarat), Grand Palace.
