Water tours and activities Thailand

Created by a French expatriate and Bangkok locals, Along The Klong offers the chance to discover little-known facets of the capital aboard a boat along the canals (klongs). It's an original way to discover local life and culture, while admiring unique urban landscapes. Several cruises are available: the small-boat tour (2 people), a 2h30 circuit, and two cruises accompanied by an English-speaking guide, the 4h floating market tour on weekends and a 4h cruise on weekdays.

Two teak junks, 26 m long and 7 m wide, with all the necessary comfort. The boats have 4 bedrooms, bathroom, air conditioning, fully equipped kitchen, wine cellar. Cruises around Koh Phangan with up to 35 people. The boat can drop you off on the beaches and provides masks, snorkels, sets of snowshoes, balloons, 10 fishing rods. Everything is included in the price, softs drinks, meals, with lobsters, meat and vegetables for vegetarians. Possibility to celebrate your wedding on board!

These tourist boats run on the Chao Phraya from Sathorn pier (Central Pier) to Phra Athit pier, making 9 stops along the way. These boats for tourists are more modern and comfortable (toilets, WiFi) than the express boats dedicated to transport. A small map of the route with the main monuments is offered and the cruise is commented (in Thai and English). A one-day pass allows you to take the boat as many times as you want, so you can stop wherever you want.

From Thaton to Chiang Rai, you can take a motorboat trip down the river. Departure from the Pier at 10:30 a.m. daily. Please enquire the day before, before the boats are full (6 passengers). Passports may be checked by the Tourist Police before departure. Normally, a stop is made at Ruammit, two-thirds of the way along the route. If you're not keen on dugout canoeing, you can take a shared cab to Mae Salong.

Departure is from Chalong Marina, where dolphins can be seen. At 11 a.m., we arrive at Monkey Beach in Phi Phi Don for snorkeling, kayaking and a giant slide on the upper deck of the boat. Lunch on the boat, then off to the Viking caves. Arrival at Koh Bida Nok for its crystal-clear waters and dreamy scenery. The number of passengers can range from twenty to a little more, as the boat is spacious. Return to Chalong at 5 p.m. and to the hotel at around 6 p.m.
