Rice Barge Cruise

Operated by: Tour East Ltd

SightseeingThis relaxed afternoon tour allows you to experience the timeless world of The Venice of the East. In Bangkok people still depend on the waterways to transport their merchandise, in particular rice, as the canals are linked to the rice fields.

Soft drinks and local fruits will be served on board.

Duration: 2½ hours

A ride on a local train is also included before returning to Bangkok city.

Duration: 9 hours
