Biking through Bangkok is so much fun whilst Team Bangkok stands for hospitality and quality. We did the tour in a small group, which has so many advantages. We made several stops at intresting places and we learned a lot, thanks to our tour-guide, Kim, who was very professional, has many intresting storys and shows you the best places.

Woody was our guide and he was excellent. We really enjoyed his insights as he took us through various neighborhoods and numerous hidden alleys. Highly recommend.

The bike ride was great fun and took us to places that you wouldn’t go as a tourist. Riding through the middle China Town and the flower market was amazing. Kim was a fantastic guide - full of energy and very knowledgeable about the local area. 10/10.

It was a really great way to see and get a feel for Bangkok. We were really able to immerse ourselves in the backs streets of the city. Also the tour avoided main roads mostly, so it felt quite safe to ride around. It was also really great to see the narrow streets and experience more of the 'real' bangkok and talk to some locals. We would recommend.

Excellent bike tour seeing the back streets and laneways of Bangkok as well as some of the more well-known attractions. It was a very unique way to see the city and visit some areas we wouldn’t have otherwise seen. Our guide, Or, was absolutely lovely and very knowledgeable. This bike tour was one of the best things we did in our fortnight in Thailand. Our girls, 15, 13 and 10 also loved it and coped with it no problems.
