Why we recommend it

Co van Kessel runs a wide programme of guided tours from its office at River City Bangkok, beside the Chao Phraya. Bicycle tours are the core of the business, with routes such as CO ORIGINAL, CO CLASSICAL and the evening CO BY NIGHT weaving through narrow lanes, markets and riverside communities.

Riders who want a break from pedalling can choose CO CANALING, a two-hour longtail boat trip along the canals, or combine cycling and boating on the five-hour CO COMBO. There are also walking and tuk-tuk options. Book ahead and check the meeting point, as the company also has a second Bangkok base near Tha Phra Chan. The company holds a Tourism Authority of Thailand licence.
