It’s only 2 days until the new year starts. During this time of the year, Bangkok is one of the most popular tourist destinations. There are so many places of the town, holding special events. Since tons of foreign travelers will be flooding into Bangkok, we would like to recommend these 1-day trips in Bangkok which will brighten up your day, get you to explore around the town, make your holiday trip one of the best memorable ones yet.
Let’s see what we have here…
1. Amazing Rattanakosin & Coolest Jet Skiing at Chao Phraya River
Learn Thai history and its culture at Rattanakosin museum. Relax with a traditional Thai massage at Wat Pho, and pay a visit to Temple of Dawn, before heading to a local restaurant where a jet skiing club is located. Spend your evening jet skiing (or take a speed boat ride), then, have a nice dinner afterward. Sounds so fun already!
Why we love this trip – Not only you get to learn Thai history and get a traditional Thai massage, but the fun part is that you get to drive a jet ski along Chao Phraya river.
2. Enjoy long tailed boat and temple at night
This is a very nice evening trip that shouldn’t be missed. Sightseeing Bangkok by its dusk via a boat. Admire the stunning sight of the town. Observe local people and their way of life along a canal, then, pay respects at a local temple at night. Hop on a bus to a restaurant. What a lovely evening 😉
Why we love this trip – When is the best time you can admire the beautiful scenery of Bangkok and its riverside? In the evening, of course!

4. Bangkok Floating Market, Rice Farm, and Nice Coffee Shop
Just like a vintage town from the old time…
Shopping and sightseeing a floating market in the east of Bangkok is our recommendation. The floating market boasts of fruits, vegetables and lively hood of Thai living at the side of the river. Our local expert would like to take you out to enjoy the local cuisines of Thailand. As you know, Thai foods are so delicious and has a vast range to choose from.
