Description

Experience Bangkok's sunset magic as you pedal through vibrant streets on a thrilling and safe guided tour. Pass iconic landmarks like the Grand Palace and Giant Swing, and visit the Flower Market.
Get off the beaten track and explore Bangkok on 2 wheels on this 4-hour night bike tour with 12 kilometers. Departing after sunset, you will ride down quiet back roads and small lanes to visit 2 ancient temples. Discover how beautiful the historic center of Bangkok is at night, when its many temples are spectacularly illuminated, the temperatures are cooler and the places you visit are much quieter.

Begin your night tour at our meeting point at our Discova Day Tour Shop Bangkok near MRT Sam Yot Station at 5:30 pm. After a quick bike fitting and briefing, it's time to hit the streets. We will avoid main roads by pedaling our way through small laneways, past ancient temples and canals to see the heart and soul of Bangkok.

Your first stop is the iconic Loha Prasat, also known as the Metal Castle - the first and only metal castle in Thailand. Explore its intricate design and learn about its historical significance.

Continue biking past some of the city's landmarks, including Democracy Monument, Khao San back roads and the historic Phra Athit Fort. Capture breathtaking views of the Rama VIII Bridge, a favorite spot for photoshoots. Cycling through Thammasat University, we cross the Chao Phraya River by ferry around sunset.

Once across, we cycle quiet back roads to Wat Rakang, an old Bangkok temple from the Ayutthaya era. After brief stop, we continue cycling via the riverside bike lane.

The next unforgettable stop is the world-famous Bangkok Flower Market, the largest wholesale flower market in Thailand. After crossing the Memorial Bridge, we stop at the Flower Market, which is at its busiest this time of night and an exciting show of color and activity. On the walk through, your guide will treat you to some of Thailand’s famous street food.

Continue cycling past the Grand Palace, we arrive at Sanam Luang, from which you can see the sparkling chedis of the palace. Our next stop is a visit to the iconic Giant Swing, known locally as Sao Ching Cha. This towering structure holds a significant place in Thai culture and history.

Afterward, we pedal through the back streets of Bangkok’s historic old city to complete the evening’s tour back at our starting meeting point. The night bike tour usually takes 3-4 hours but may vary by group. Dinner is not included in the night tour, but we do provide some fun and tasty street food snacks in the Bangkok Flower Market.
