Bangkok Rocket Boat and Canal Tour to Nonthaburi
Highlights
- Longtail boat cruise north to Nonthaburi
- High-speed rocket boat, the James Bond boat of 1974
- Rural canal life beyond the city
- Return on the Chao Phraya Express commuter boat
Description
One afternoon, three very different boats. You leave River City on a classic longtail and cruise north up the Chao Phraya to the town of Nonthaburi, where the canals turn rural and life along the water slows right down. Then the pace changes. You board a rocket boat, the narrow high-speed classic made famous as the James Bond boat in The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), and race through the narrow canals. It is the loud, fast, grin-inducing part of the day.
