Grasshopper Active - Bangkok Day Tours by Bike - Meet at the designated location
Arrive at the designated location by 8:30 am. The bike tour will commence promptly at 9 am. After a brief bike fitting and orientation, the journey begins. It takes a few kilometers to reach some greenery, but along the way, you’ll cycle through narrow alleyways with dense housing, offering an authentic glimpse into city life. -
Wat Chalo - Beyond the city
Once on the outskirts of Bangkok, there are few cars but many locals who are pleased to see foreign visitors cycling in their neighborhood. Lunch is provided at a delightful local eatery where you can enjoy world-renowned Thai cuisine. The terrain is diverse, ranging from canal-side communities to market gardens, wooded areas, and ancient temple ruins, all within view of Bangkok’s skyscrapers but away from the city’s hustle. Stops include historically significant temples: Wat Chaloh and Wat Kaew Fah. The tour also passes through agricultural areas, mainly plant nurseries and orchards. While the tour doesn’t quite reach the countryside, some sections have a rural feel. - Khaosan Road - Returning to Bangkok, the route winds back through the alleyways, concluding at the original meeting point.
The ride covers a total of 37 km and the tour lasts approximately 7 hours, typically ending around 4 pm, though this may vary depending on the group and their abilities.
Participants will spend most of the day cycling, and while the total distance isn’t extensive, the heat can be intense. The cycling is moderately technical, with sections on narrow raised concrete paths, making this tour suitable for more experienced cyclists. The route includes concrete, dirt bike trails, and a few rough patches, but primarily follows backstreets and alleyways. There are some main roads to cross, but this is done as a group, and Bangkok drivers are very courteous when it comes to road crossings.
The tropical sun can be quite intense, so it’s recommended to use sunblock or, for a natural alternative, wear long sleeves and Buff headwear to protect your neck.

On this full-day biking excursion, traverse the tranquil trails surrounding Bangkok, immersing yourself in an ecosystem with a slower pace and lush green panoramas. Pedal through forested terrains, beside tree-shaded canals, and explore venerable temples blanketed by entwined roots and creepers. The experience of biking on slim pathways and serpentine tracks makes this our most challenging day tour on bike, though reasonably so. Experience a novel facet of Bangkok as you pedal your way through its borders, seemingly journeying back in time.
Once we’ve left the hustle and bustle of the urban sphere, we pedal onwards, navigating our way through the suburbs until eventually, we find ourselves exploring the fringes of Bangkok. Here, high-rises are supplanted by quaint wooden homes, thoroughfares morph into slim concrete walkways or unsealed tracks, and human crowds give way to flourishing greens and towering trees. We won’t disclose the precise route we’ll be taking - it’s our well-guarded secret that can only be unveiled by accompanying us on the tour.
After a fulfilled day of biking, dismount the bike and unwind in our shop, revitalizing yourself with a complimentary beverage from our frosty fridge.
