Private Tour to Pho Temple, Arun Temple and Canal Tour
About This Experience
Cruise along peaceful canals and see a quieter side of Bangkok. Pass wooden houses on stilts — some well-kept, others old and leaning — and catch a glimpse of local life by the water. You might even spot a water monitor lizard sunbathing!
Visit the stunning Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn), a riverside landmark with its colorful, towering spire. Then take a short ferry ride to Wat Pho, home of the Reclining Buddha — one of Thailand’s most beautiful temple treasures.
End the day at Pak Khlong Talad, Bangkok’s largest flower market, where rows of vibrant blooms create a feast for the senses.

Tour Itinerary
1 hour
Take the private boat from Tien Pier to see local houses in Bangkok that you can't see in the city. Some houses along the canal are going to collapse but people still live inside.
1 hour
Wat Arun, also known as the Temple of Dawn, is one of Bangkok’s most iconic landmarks. Its majestic central prang, rising 67 meters high, is the tallest in the city and beautifully adorned with intricate porcelain details. Standing by the river, the temple offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere — a true masterpiece of Thai architecture that you shouldn’t miss.
1 hour
Wat Pho, also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is one of the oldest and most important temples in Bangkok. Though its exact origins remain unclear, it is believed to have stood on this sacred ground for over 300 years — even before the founding of both Thonburi and Bangkok as capital cities. This temple is home to the most stunning Reclining Buddha in Thailand — an enormous statue measuring 46 meters long and 15 meters high, completely covered in gold leaf. Its serene expression and intricate mother-of-pearl inlays on the soles of its feet are truly mesmerizing. Beyond the statue, Wat Pho is also known as the birthplace of traditional Thai massage and boasts beautiful architecture, peaceful courtyards, and one of the largest collections of Buddha images in the country. A visit to Wat Pho is not just sightseeing — it’s a journey into Thailand’s spiritual and cultural heritage.
30 min
Pak Khlong Talat is the largest and most famous flower market in Bangkok, Thailand. Located near the Chao Phraya River and close to major landmarks such as the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, it is a vibrant hub for fresh flowers, fruits, and vegetables. The market is especially well known for its wide variety of flowers, including orchids, roses, marigolds, and jasmine, which are commonly used in Thai culture for offerings, decorations, and ceremonies. Visitors can also find beautifully crafted floral garlands made by local vendors. Pak Khlong Talat operates 24 hours a day, but it is most lively late at night and early in the morning, when fresh flowers arrive from different parts of the country. It is a great place to experience local life, take photos, and enjoy the colorful atmosphere of Bangkok.
