About this experience

Why Small Teak Boat?

The small boat is the most fun and unique in the Bangkok Canals if not in whole Bangkok!

Small intimate boat that let you be close to the water and local life, going into the meandering canals, can only be done well by certain size (also, we save up to 20min(x2) waiting time between river and the watergate between river and canals)

* Wat Paknam - Stop, embark the boat and walk around the Big Buddha, go up to see Chrystal pagoda and skyline of old capital Thonburi city

* Organic Garden - pick fresh Thai herbs! Opportunity to learn how to cook authentic 3 Thai dishes in the outdoor setting in organic garden

* Artist House - have a walk on the boardwalk, take a peek into art galleries, feed fish and relax

We started our boat tour company since 2010, having 13 years of experience carrying people around the world on our boat! We love our canal-side communities and promoting them.
