Bangkok: Night Bike Tour with Temples & Flower Market Visit

Follow Me Bike Tours keeps this night ride to a maximum of 8 riders, cycling the mostly flat backstreets of Bangkok after dark rather than looping the usual daytime landmarks. The route starts in Talat Noi, threading century-old shophouses, street art and tucked-away Chinese shrines that most day tours never reach, before a short local ferry crossing over the Chao Phraya River.

From the far bank, the ride passes the illuminated white chedi of Wat Prayurawongsawat, crosses the Memorial Bridge for river and skyline views, and wanders through Bangkok’s 24-hour Flower Market at its most colourful: orchids, lotus blooms and marigold garlands lit up for the night trade. A stretch near the Grand Palace catches the old city’s landmarks glowing after dark before the ride finishes in Chinatown, where the group stops for a street-side dinner among the neon signs, market stalls and food vendors.

Your guide photographs the ride throughout and shares the images afterward, so there’s less need to keep stopping for phone photos. Previous cycling experience is expected. This isn’t a first-time-on-a-bike outing.

Watch out: the clubhouse sits on a small side street that’s easy to miss. The operator recommends arriving by BTS Skytrain and following their own location map rather than a standard map app. You’ll also need to give each rider’s passport name and number when booking, for the tour’s travel insurance.

Insider Tip: wear comfortable closed shoes rather than sandals. There’s some walking mixed in with the riding, and the operator recommends it.

Kids can join on a bike suited to at least 120cm height, or in a child carrier for younger riders up to 18kg and 115cm.
