Experience the magic of Bangkok at night on a private tuk-tuk tour. Explore Chinatown, taste delicious Thai cuisine, and learn about the city’s culture and landmarks from a knowledgeable local guide.
- Wat Arun - From the meeting point, we take the Chao Phraya Express Boat to visit one of Bangkok’s most renowned temples. Wat Arun, also known as the Temple of Dawn or Wat Chaeng, is located on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River. This temple is one of Bangkok’s most picturesque, especially when illuminated at night. The ideal time to capture photos of Wat Arun is in the evening!
NOTE 1: The total time includes travel from the meeting point at Saphan Taksin to Wat Arun.
NOTE 2: At this time of day, climbing the stairs of Wat Arun is not possible, so we will admire its beauty from the outside.
-
The Grand Palace - Since the Grand Palace is closed at this hour, we will only stop outside. It’s a fantastic spot for nighttime photography as the palace grounds are beautifully lit.
-
Wat Phra Chetuphon - Wat Pho is one of the oldest and largest temple complexes in Bangkok, housing the largest collection of Buddha images in Thailand. It is also recognized as the country’s first public education center, focusing on religion, science, and literature. Currently, it is closed at night, so we will just pass by.
-
Pak Khlong Talat - Pak Khlong Talat is Thailand’s largest wholesale flower market, operating 24/7. The name means ‘market at the mouth of the canal’ in Thai. Initially a floating market in the early 18th century, it transformed into a large fish market in the 19th century and eventually became the Flower Market in the 1950s.
NOTE: Total time includes travel from the previous stop.
- Sao Chingcha - The Giant Swing, or Sao Chingcha, is a religious structure once used in an ancient Brahmin ceremony. It’s an iconic landmark in Bangkok, perfect for photos, and is situated in front of the first-rank royal temple, Wat Suthat.
NOTE: Total time includes travel from the previous location.
- Chinatown - Bangkok - Bangkok’s Chinatown is one of the largest and most authentic Chinatowns globally. Yaowarat Road, the main street, becomes a culinary hub at night with numerous street food vendors. The vibrant neon lights and bustling crowds create a lively atmosphere, distinct from the daytime.
Our tuk-tuk will drop us off here, and we will continue on foot to enjoy a simple street-food meal. You can find a variety of foods, including satay, pad thai, chicken dishes, fried rice, noodles, soups, crispy duck, and curries. No street dining experience in Chinatown is complete without trying a local Thai dessert!
NOTE 1: Food stalls are not allowed on the street on Mondays. If you join our tour on a Monday, we will dine at an alternative location.

NOTE 1:
The tour ends in Chinatown. You can take the metro back to your hotel or the guide can assist with a taxi (not included).

- We have our street-food meal at the end of the tour, so we recommend you to eat something before start of the tour if you can’t wait that long.
