The bike and canal boat tour has been one of my favorite activities in Bangkok. Jobe took us around backstreets and markets and I got to see a different side of Bangkok. The lunch was yummy and the boat canal cruise was nice. Jobe was a very kind, professional and knowledgeable guide during our 3.5 hours together, highly recommended!

Mr T was on time and explained where we were planning to go with a map.. he was full of information and made the boat trip to be a fun experience. he was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the boat trip. highly recommend travelling with Mr T

Was a very nice boat trip on the river and smaller rivers. Mr. Tee was a very funny guide. He explained us a lot with humor and took beautiful pictures. I was with 3 other people and it was a really nice afternoon!

This was a lovely morning cycle with a small group of people. The guide was very pleasant and gave good information of the areas we were in. Would recommend this tour

Amazing guide, amazing food 5/5. Bikes were much higher quality than what I’m used to on these kind of trips.
