TOUR ITINERARY

Starting time – 9:00 am – 1:00 pm.

Meet at the Hotel in BKK Transfer to Bang Krachao by van

After a quick bike fitting and a little briefing, we are off cycling the back roads on the trail to Bang Krachao. Then cycle elevated bike paths through local villages and plantations

The Old Betel Nut Garden

Stop for some homemade refreshments in a family garden commanding grand views of the Chao Phraya River and take a moment or two to contemplate the ship and barge traffic on the river.

The Firefly Garden

Before man ever came to Bang Krachao the area was a large mangrove forest which would light up at night with the lights of fireflies. Today members of the local community have created a reserve where you can come to see the mangroves as they once were and where the fireflies can flourish. You won’t see any fireflies during the day but feel welcome to come back at night.

The Ganesh Shrine

Meandering away from the mangroves through villages and local Buddhist temples, stop to visit a Shrine to Ganesh, the Hindu god of beginnings and the remover of obstacles. Followers of his cult in Thailand have established a lovely shrine to Ganesh in Bangkrachao.

Wat Bang Namphueng Nok

Coming to the end of the Bang Krachao trail we stop for a moment to visit the historical temple of Wat Bang Nam Phueng Nok and take some refreshments before we cross back across the Chao Phraya River.

Return to the Hotel by van

This tour will take about 4 hours. But the time can vary by group. Snacks and drinks are included.
