Starting at River City Shopping Mall, visit some of the oldest areas and buildings in Bangkok as you walk through the Talad Noi and Chinatown areas. Dating back centuries, visit or pass by places like the Holy Rosary Church, the building that houses the first bank opened in Thailand, homes built long ago with fascinating stories to them, etc. The tour will take you along alleyways where the old walls have been adorned by skilled graffiti artists. Also part of this day will be Chinese shrines (The Tiger Shrine), temples (Wat Ratchabophit, Wat Suthat, Wat Ratchanadaram), the Loha Prasat monastery and a long-tailed speedboat ride along a klong (canal) into the city's centre. Along the way, there will be several stops made to enjoy various Thai delicacies at tiny hidden gems that most visitors to Bangkok are not aware of. A real treat! A small lunch of Dim Sum at Lhong Tou Cafe OR a noodle/rice dish at Sae Poon Shop near the famous Khao San Road will be a delicious relief too.
