Private Bangkok Night Bike Tour(Hotel/Concierge)

TOUR ITINERARY 

Start Time: 6:00 pm – End Time: 10:00 pm 

Meeting Time: 5:30 pm

Meeting Point: Bangkok Discova Day Tour Shop 

Shop Address: 719 Mahachai Road, Wang Burapha Phirom, Phranakorn, Bangkok 10200, Thailand 

Gather at the Bangkok Discova Day Tour Shop 

Meet at the Bangkok Discova Day Tour Shop near MRT Sam Yot Station at 5:30 pm. The night tour will depart at 6 pm sharp, so make sure you allow plenty of time to get here, accounting for peak hour traffic. After a quick bike fitting and briefing, it's time to hit the bikes. We’ll avoid main roads by pedaling our way through small laneways, past ancient temples and canals to see the heart and soul of Bangkok. 

Cycle and ferry to Wat Arun 

After passing through Thammasat University, we cross the Chao Phraya River by ferry. Crossing the river around sunset provides quite lovely views. Once across, we cycle quiet back roads to Wat Arun, the Temple of the Dawn. At night, Wat Arun is spectacularly illuminated and free of the throngs of day tourists so you can enjoy the serene ambiance of the temple. 

Visit the Flower Market 

The next unforgettable stop is the world-famous Bangkok flower market, the largest wholesale flower market in Thailand. After crossing the Chao Phraya bridge, we stop at the flower market which is at its busiest this time of night and an exciting show of color and activity. On the walk through, your guide will treat you to some of Thailand’s famous street food. 

Wat Pho 

Next on the route is Wat Pho, the renowned Temple of the Reclining Buddha. While the reclining Buddha is not visible to visitors in the evening, the temple grounds are truly magical, with beautifully illuminated chedi spires covered in porcelain mosaics. Explore the peaceful temple grounds in the cool evening air - a vastly different scene from the noisy crowds found here during the day, almost like having a privileged private tour. 

Return to the Bangkok Discova Day Tour Shop 

Biking on past the Grand Palace, we find ourselves in Sanam Luang from which we can see the sparkling chedis of the palace. We pedal through the back streets of Bangkok’s historic old city to finish the evening’s bike tour back at our shop near MRT Sam Yot Station. 

The night bike tour usually takes 3-4 hours but is variable by group. Dinner is not included in the night tour but we do include some fun and tasty street food snacks in the flower market.

Street numbers are not overly useful in Thailand as people work more off landmarks and intersections. The best landmark close to us is Sam Yod MRT station. 

How to get to the shop? 

MRT 

The shop is just a 4-minute walk from the new MRT station Sam Yod and just one block away from Miramar hotel. We are at the last building on the same block with KC Music Center. 

Taxi 

It is worth printing the map on this page to show a taxi driver if you choose to come to the Grasshopper Shop by taxi. Bear in mind that you will be traveling during peak hour so if travelling from the downtown area you should allow at least one hour to get here. 

River Boat 

It is possible to get reasonably close to us on the Chao Phraya Express Boat getting off at Pier N13 Phra Athit which is a 15-minute walk or short tuk-tuk ride from Phra Athit Pier. The ferry takes about 1 hour from Central Pier at Sapan Taksin. The boat service closes at 7pm so it cannot be used to get back to your hotel after the tour.
