Great mix of environments - Chinatown, Tonburi, wholesale flower market, temple… Mike and Alice were super friendly and knowledgeable. Great snacks too - including a custard apple, mangosteen, fried sticky rice cracker with dried watermelon. The bikes are one gear but it’s mostly flat. Definitely recommend!

Slow biking, easy route, really interesting to go through parts of Bangkok I wouldn’t go into alone.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the relaxed pace and exploring parts of Bangkok that are off the usual tourist path. It’s great to hear you had an interesting and safe ride! 🚲🌆

A great way to see Bangkok!

I had an amazing time on this tour. Our guides, Pekki and AA, led us seamlessly through the narrow backstreets of Bangkok. It was great to get a look at the regular day-to-day goings-on, away from the main tourist hubs. The tour was well organised and the pacing felt about right to me. P.S. sorry if I misspelled either of the guides names!

My wife and I were...

Mackenzie_H, May 2025
My wife and I were impressed with the organization of the tour and the route that we took. We were only on busy main streets for 5-10% of the tour while the rest of the time we were on side streets in quiet neighborhoods of Bangkok! It was hard to believe we were in Bangkok at times because of how peaceful parts of the ride were. It was a hot day, but we were provided water and enough breaks throughout our time. The snack break came at the perfect time! I think it would be nice if they were able to include a bit of time for a stop at a coffee shop or souvenir shop at some of the cute stores we passed during the bike ride.

You need to book this tour!

Clare_B, Feb 2025
We really enjoyed the bike tour, we were taken off the beaten track & got to see things we would have otherwise missed. Our guides were also really lovely. We would 100% recommend this bike tour.

Fun urban cycling in Bangkok

Andrea_M, Feb 2025
I enjoyed the urban experience - riding through the alleys and on the streets it was delightful the main guide was most informative he clearly loves what he does and the other two guides were ready for help with the group

I would have given this 5...

MICHAEL_M, Jan 2025
I would have given this 5 stars except "as the original Bangkok bike tour" they might give more consideration to the physics of of bike riding in a single file group and distributed the cyclists appropriately.... Inevitably those at the back are constantly pedaling flat out in 30 degree heat temperature to catch up after each bottle neck, even though the lead was at a gentle pace.....physics take over! So perhaps not allowing the fit and young to be at the front and the pensioners at the back was very poorly considered! I had intervened half way through - this should not have been nessecary for an experienced operator. Rather mared an otherwise well run operation, with great guides.

I been to Bangkok quite a few times but this trip was so interesting and you saw lots of every day living culture Staff was so knowledgable had amazing afternoon

Great way to start your trip in Bangkok

Steve_W, Jan 2025
We went here first thing in the morning on our first day in Bangkok. Our guide Mike spoke great English and had a great energy whilst giving us the tour. A good taste of some of the less visited spots in the city.

Must Do Activity

Ricardo_C, Dec 2024
Enjoyed cycling through the city and making all the cool spots along the way. Our tour guides were exceptional and kept everyone engaged while also making sure we were safe when crossing busy intersections

A fabulous experience...

Jody_C, Dec 2024
A fabulous experience riding around the different streets in Bangkok. From markets to temples, it was a great way to see the sites.

It was a well organized...

Fred_M, Nov 2024
It was a well organized tour. The tour staff Benny and Daisy did a very good job. The only suggestion would be stop at local coffee shop... I definitely would do another tour with group.

Great concept, not great in actuality

littlekelly19, Nov 2024
I loved our guides, Nancy and Oliver. I loved the idea of this excursion. A few problems with it. People joined the tour who were uncomfortable on a bicycle. It’s not fair to the rest of the group. And also, it’s advertised that you don’t need to hear the guide to experience this, but everybody has questions and not everybody can be close to or hear the guide. This caused people to try to rush to the front. People were frustrated by this, especially when those who were not comfortable on a bicycle were pushing to be up there. Also, don’t come hungry because snacks are delivered as promised, but it is a few types of fruit bites and a rice cookie. There was a lot of lifting and carrying these awkward, heavy bicycles that people had not anticipated. I have since seen these tours at half the price through other companies and I think that would be a little more reasonable.

Brilliant few hours!!

Clare_O, Nov 2024
Fabulous few hours seeing the parts of Bangkok you miss from the main streets. Took our two children, 8 and 9, and we had a great time. The rain was really heavy for most of the tour but we were given ponchos and it definitely made for a memorable afternoon!! Our guides Peckky and Jack took us to see temples and markets and bought food for us to try. Highly recommend!!

Great Tour, Highly Recommend

Kim_W, Oct 2024
This was a great cycle tour, loved exploring the little streets and our guides were great. You do go on a few small sections of big roads but they stop traffic to get everyone across so felt completely safe all the time. Enjoyed seeing the markets and the boat ride back. Would highly recommend.

Bangkok cycle tour

Lovely cycle around the narrow streets of Bangkok. We visited a temple, tried different fruits and saw markets

Don't miss this! Hidden gems of Bangkok

Amazing tour bike.. Absolutely recommend! Kuki and Titi were the best 😃 Thanks for everything... 🫶

Lovely bike ride through Bangkok

Jen_T, May 2024
I wanted a tour that was interactive and more than sitting on a bus. This bike your was perfect! I got to see lots of sites in three hours. It wasn’t too hard to bike either, and I still had plenty of energy afterwards. I really enjoyed the group activity of lotus peeling at the temple. And it was lovely to meet the guides and other travelers. I’d love to do another bike tour with this company again! Thank you. Sa-wa-dee-ka!

Loved it

Celine_C, Apr 2024
I loved it! Best way to immense yourself and flight jetlag! Thanks for this great experience. See you next time

What an enjoyable ride

Esther_C, Apr 2024
This is a great trip as you get to see such interesting parts of Bangkok and visit all the places you wouldn’t normally go to. We loved the interesting snacks and were grateful for the water and soft drinks. Great information from our guide and it was a lovely gentle pace. Thanks!

Bangkok by bike a great experience !!

Gaetano_L, Mar 2024
Fantastic way to see Bangkok and enjoy the atmosphere. We rode through the streets of Chinatown, over the river, saw an amazing temple and enjoyed some of the local fruits. Mike and his sister Desi were our tour guides and were friendly, helpful and looked after us superbly as we travelled from one area to another. I would highly recommend the bike tour in Bangkok to anyone wanting to see lots in a short amount of time. Thank you so much Mike and Desi
