What To Expect

Your guide and driver for the day will be waiting for you in your hotel lobby at around 8 am from where they will bring you to the main boat pier along the Chao Phraya River. Your long tail boat for the day and its driver are eagerly waiting to show you the lesser side of Bangkok’s water ways.

We start by crossing over to the other side of the Chao Phraya River to a Chinese Shrine near Wat Anongkharam. The Shrine is established over 200 years ago during Thonburi period and has maintained as much of its glory and amazing decorative items at the time of its construction.

Santa Cruz Church

We follow the river banks and enter the Wat Santa Cruz, with references to the time the Portuguese entered the former kingdom of Siam.

Baan Kudichin Museum

After this visit, we walk around the surrounding village of Kudi Chin where we admire the finer traits of how old baking techniques are used to make bread and snacks. We head back to our boat and continue our journey to Wat Rakang.

This was the former house of King Rama I and with its unique, triplex scripture hall more than 200 years old; this is a hidden gem that many visitors do not know about. Rama I was the first king of the Rama Dynasty and he received the name Chao Phraya Chakri at his ascension to the throne.
