Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours (River City)

I can't recommend this tour enough! It really was the highlight of our Bangkok trip. The company is extremely professional, the bikes very comfortable and the itinerary spot on to give you a sense of old Bangkok and the local community. Earth and Cat were fabulous guides who couldn't do enough for us. One of the best trips I have ever done and would do again and again!

Our guides (Earth and AA) were great. Very friendly and lots of interesting information shared. Bike ride was into backstreets of Bangkok then longboat ride to quieter area outside of city. Small group (10), which was great. Lunch (included) was family style at a small riverside restaurant and was tasty (especially the Tom Yum). Highly recommend!

I really liked the Co van Kessel tour. I was traveling solo and they deliberately put me in a group with a few other solo travelers (group consisted of some Dutch, Belgians, and a German). That was a nice touch and it made for a good atmosphere. You get to see a different side of Bangkok that you wouldn't easily see as a regular tourist. Definitely recommend doing this at the beginning of your trip. ​For Thai standards, I did find it quite pricey(1250THB). I did the 3-hour bike tour and along the way we stopped to buy some local snacks and fruit (all included). The local guides know Bangkok very well. ​It was actually pretty funny to see the frustration of other walking tourists when we arrived at a tiny local market with 10 bicycles. The locals don't really care, they just smile and find it funny to see. One quick tip: make sure to bring some sunscreen, as it gets quite hot on the bike
