We start our excursion with a calming sail northward via the Chao Phraya River Express Boat to the small town of Nonthaburi. There, we briefly wander through their village and explore a local market. From there, we shift our journey onto a long tail boat, which ushers us into a unique canal network, much different than those near the city. Serene scenes of countryside canal life take us back to a simpler era of slow-paced daily life and minimal concerns. The tranquil sail is suddenly disrupted an hour later by the piercing sound of rocket boats, indicating a quick switch in tempo. The adrenaline-fueled high-speed navigation through tight canals is sure to awaken everyone’s playful side. Another long tail boat takes us to a local restaurant to enjoy a delicious lunch. The excursion concludes with a local transport escorting you back to your hotel in Bangkok.
