Bangkok's canals – or klongs as they're known – have been used as watery highways for centuries. This tour sees you cruise by longtail boat along the city's bustling backwaters to two of the Thai capital's top sights. You'll glide by leafy jungle and locals living life along the shore to visit the Royal Grand Palace and Wat Arun – the vast riverside Temple of Dawn. The tour rounds off with a stop at a local lapidary factory.
