Our guide (sugar) was very nice, took loads of pictures and showed us beautiful parts of the city that we would otherwise never see. We also laughed a lot and had fun in general. Nice small group we were with only 4 including guide. I would definitely recommend taking this tour !!

Riding a bike with our three boys ages 6-8-11 through the backstreets and alleyways in Bangkok looked like a real challenge. The heat 32 degrees Celsius and the humidity also weren't really helpful. But being Dutch we had to cycle, cause that's what we Dutchies do. We cycle. Fortunately we were guided by Sugar, not his real name obviously. But if we would have had to remember his real name, it would have been a challenge we probably would not have been able to overcome. Sugar is the nicest guide ever. He guided us through the aforementioned alleyways and backstreets, rode past some lovely local tempels, walked through a local market, had some durian, took our bikes on a longtailboat trip, had a wonderful lunch, fed some catfish and we're safely guided back to where we started from. Our boys had a wonderful time. We had a wonderful time. All thanks to Sugar.

The Other Side of Bangkok with tour with our guide Sugar was one of our highlights from the trip. Sugar was very knowledgeable of the area, attentive, and kept jokes going the whole way.
A peaceful and relaxing day away from the hustle and bustle of the city - not to be missed!!

This was really a nice and beautiful experience, not the standard biketrip. Sugar (name of your guide) brought us to the ‘Otherside of Bangkok’. This was the old city center where the working class lives, local street markets and a temple. During lunch we were brought to a restaurant by boat (40 mins) where we can see the canals and then when we arrived at the restaurant we cooked our own Thai food. All with an experienced cook next to us and guiding us. Would I recommend this activity to others, absolutely yes! We did the trip with 3 adults and two children (13 & 10 years). The kids also loved it!

It was a wonderful experience. We cycled with our very nice guide through Thonburi, we took a long tail boat as part of the tour and had a tasty lunch at the ‘artist’s house’. We fed fish, saw a very big Buddha and ate Thai snacks. I highly recommend the tour. (We did half day tour Hidden Treasures). We are a family of five with kids 11, 15, 16.

Wonderful routes and great tour guide! Offside the many tourists just the best experience you can get - in Bangkok itself (A Taste of Bangkok, very delicious and interesting) or on the other side of the river (Jungle Oasis, Perfect to get a time out from the big city and catch fresh air). The tour guides are all very lovely, know many interesting stories and facts and it feels as if your are on a trip with a friend. It was so much fun - thank you very much, next time again!!! :)

Very nice way to get to know an unknown side of Bangkok. We received a private guide with our family and we cycled through Thonburi at a leisurely pace through small alleys, along the canals and through the market. Sugar, our guide, did his best to make everyone happy and he succeeded!
The bike tour ended with lunch and then a longtail boat ride through the canals of Bangkok.

Sugar gave us the best tour!! We would not have seen the real Bangkok without him. He is very kind and takes very good care of you, he has a good sense of humor as well :) he takes you to all the little streets and markets and shows you how the real life in Bangkok is. I would recommend this tour to all the people who really want to visit the local culture

Sugar is a fantastic guide who goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and at ease. With his infectious humor and friendly demeanor, he effortlessly connects with his guests. One unique aspect is his use of Dutch bicycle signals, adding an extra touch of authenticity to the experience. Sugar's genuine warmth shines through as he showcases the real Bangkok, making every moment of the tour memorable. Highly recommended for an unforgettable adventure in the vibrant streets of Bangkok!"

Our bike tour The Taste of Bangkok with the Other Side of Bangkok was great!The bikes were of high quality (mountainbikes) and our tour guide Mas was the best! She showed us beautiful - mostly quiet beautiful places, and told interesting stories. Her English was really well. Our family was the only group in the tour so lots of attention and not having to wait for less experienced cyclest as you may see in some of the tours organized by others. Our teenage daugthers (13 & 16) loved the tour.
I highly recommend this tour.
