Bangkok Canal Tour: 2-Hour Longtail Boat Ride - Meeting at Elefin Coffee near Wat Pho

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 5,909 reviews · from $37Our pick

Review of Bangkok’s 2-hour Thonburi canal tour by longtail boat, with temple views, local life, practical tips, drawbacks, and value advice.

“This longboat khlong tour was an interesting way to see a bit of Bangkok's canal-side life. Our nice guide, Fern, was helpful and managed things under sometimes challenging conditions. The only drawback was in the difficulty hearing her narration and announcements over the boat noises. But overall, a fun experience!”

Explore Ayutthaya’s ruined temples, see the Buddha in tree roots, and cruise back to Bangkok with lunch on this full-day trip.

“Pick up was way too early. We went on a minibus to go to a bigger bus. We waited 30min in the big bus for other people to arrive. The temples were pretty but maybe too much free time on site and not enough explanation about the life in the temple etc. Food on the cruise was good, just the cruise was too long.. to be fair only the last 40min was worth it ( more than 3h cruise).”

Review of Bangkok’s Meridian River Cruise, with Wat Arun views, seafood buffet, live music, Thai dance, timing, and value tips.

“For our last night in BK I booked dinner & an evening cruise on the Meridian. Everything was well-organised and we were really impressed with the boat, the view from our table and the selection of food. The entertainment was ok and there was no ‘guide’ but that didn’t detract from what was a lovely evening on the river. The views are great and the whole evening was excellent value for money. Highly recommend!”
