How to use the CHAO PHRAYA EXPRESS BOAT in Bangkok ( Co van Kessel Guide )

[@arvindupreti1913]

This is what i tell my fellow country men , that there is so much to do in Thailand when they give me a sly smile . During my every visit to this city ,I take a day off just to take this cheapest transport to have my fill of Chao Phraya river .I pick a vantage seat , camera in tow with some delicious Thai street food and drinks and in around just 50 Baht , I spend tye whole day ,in a state of nothingness and get the best pictures of the city .Great Video ,you have done on this.

[@easystreet1888]

Excellent presentation by a beautiful young lady. I'm tempted to go to the office sponsoring her today as we're looking for canal rides on the smaller Bangkok canals.

[@derheiligemartinus]

Boats are my favorites of transportation in BKK. Nobody needs to stay in a taxi on the road during the rush hour. Very good presentation and overview about the boat lines. In 1991 I learned these by myself from a paper map and watching the thai people. And as I see, in the digital age not so many things has been changed.

[@jamesdunlop8704]

This is one of the great links in the Bangkok transport system. Do not mis the Klong ferries that go straight into the centre of the city. These easily connect with the sky train and river ferry. A great way of feeling part of the city .Rather than being in a taxi.

👌👌👌👍👍👍🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷

[@Hurairahgiri]

Can you suggest a route?

[@richard135b7]

I wish I had known about this before my last visit to Bangkok. Thanks

[@r.otaviano]

Very informative, the best guide I've found so far. Thanks for sharing. Just landed in Bangkok! Cheers.

[@ytviewer172]

Very informative video with good directions and maps. Traveling by boat seems more enjoyable, less stressful and cheaper than taking a taxi in the previous video. The charming and articulate presenter did a wonderful job! Have there been some boat accidents and injuries?

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Thank you for your comment. We agree that taking the boat can be more enjoyable! Thank you for your nice feedback, we are sure to pass it along to Nina. We are not sure if there have been any injuries with these express boats. But it's not impossible, that's why we always say: Safety first.

[@marias7171]

so cool love how you told us about the places that you only can get on boat!!!!!!!!

[@antoniomorais1503]

[@MofazzalHossainRizu]

Please help... How can I go to Phra Pradaeng from Bangkok?? Need details information.. Or is there any Bts available?? Then how?? I am a solo traveler...

[@chefmarc8404]

Nice guide, i never really used the boats, expect the shuttle to asiathique I live near on nut so its not really on my daily route;) Bit should do it more often

[@KayDExperience]

We will definitely try this next month. Thanks for sharing

[@erturtemirbaev5207]

[@sathya-enjoy_lifetothefullest]

[@RaewynePaterson]

[@susmitasen6270]

[@yogeshmadan1596]

So nice information given by you...thanx angel

[@williamkuryaki]

Thank you guys for the clear information

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi WIll! You are very welcome!

[@hassanalihusseini1717]

Anothe nice video! I always like travelling by boat on the Chao Phraya river. I wondered only about one thing: You said "ask a local", but at your boarding pier your friend talked in English to the ticket selling woman (4:03). She is not Thai?

[@micpotato8158]

Pretty sure susie is a man

[@paayelagarwaal8766]

I am staying at Khaosan area. How to get from there to the river boat station.

[@mochimochi7188]

Does the Orange line or Blue line stop at Thonburi Railway? I did some research and all I can find is that the No Flag line is the only one that goes there, however this video looks like you can get to Thonburi Railway by Orange and Blue too?

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

According to the website, all boats stop there. It's the 11th stop (N11) www.chaophrayaexpressboat.com/en/services/route-print.asp

[@ariffaziz6793]

Can we use this boat to see around Bangkok and back to the same terminal?

[@seizethedayandlive]

very clear and well done! what camera did you use? the video quality is exceptional! ps: the narrator is gorgeous!

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Rand U, thank you very much! For this video we used a Nikon!

[@seizethedayandlive]

Whoever was responsible for this did an excellent job; very professionally done! Thanks!

[@GeeCeeWU]

I agree with Rand U and so is Suzi. Excellent video and very useful. I used the orange boat to go to Thonburi Pier when I was last in Bangkok, with the idea of getting to the River Kwai bridge using local transport only. I got as far as the railway station but it was too late in the day to go. The train only runs twice a day and the journey takes around three hours but the boat trip was an experience in itself and took about half an hour from Saphan Taskin. A must do the next time I am in Bangkok but with better planning. I just subscribed by the way.

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Thank you! We appreciate it very much! Hope we can show you the REAL Bangkok some day.

[@GeeCeeWU]

I'll be back!!

[@Rockstar-bg1vo]

subscribed, your bankok videos are amazing

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Rockstar 007, thank you so much! We are really glad you like them! Stay tuned!

[@phramghao3950]

Great! Do you have office in Pattaya etc..? Thanks

[@JatinderSingh-gw2to]

Nice info

[@TravelTon]

Perfect uitgelegd. Ik wil bij jullie een fietstocht boeken en dan hetzelfde traject per boot afleggen . Hoeveel tijd moet ik inplannen voor deze trip om netjes om 7h bij jullie te zijn?

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Ton! Voor de ochtend tour, raden wij aan om met de Taxi te komen. Aangezien dan het verkeer nog niet vast staat. Als je vanaf Khao San ongeveer de taxi neemt om 6:15, kom je mooi op tijd bij ons aan. Je kan dan op de terug weg met de boot terug naar Khao San!

[@TravelTon]

@@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725 Bedankt voor het snelle antwoord, ik zal binnenkort de fietstocht boeken :-)

[@sathya-enjoy_lifetothefullest]

Hi , this is an excellent video to use the boats. I want to take the 180 boat which is for full day. So how much time it takes to complete from sapin to the last point 1 way? I also want to go to wat arun from sapin so which boat I need take and which stop I need to get down?

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Sathyavelu, the boat from Saphan taksin to the end, usually takes around 1 hour. And from Saphan Taksin to Wat arun maybe 10 minutes. The stop is between 7 and 8, and is called Wat Arun.

[@sathya-enjoy_lifetothefullest]

Co van Kessel Bangkok - Bike and Boat tours you are really awesome so fast response. Thank you so much

[@adsadejglanboot6543]

very nice and informative video. Thanks!

[@ไปไหนอีก.เลาะจัง]

How is Thailand? Is there anything that needs to be improved? We will do it better.

[@boeingkp2]

Orange flag did not stop at every pier along the pier is stop at medium size to bigger size pier only for the boat that stop at every pier will be no flag local boat is stop for more than34stop along the way and serve you in morning and evening also it got canceled due to covid 19

[@dbibbyma]

Hey, thanks. Good information

[@Thailand-natural0899]

So nice video

[@geneyoung3004]

Are all boats one way? If not the how will we know which boat we are boarding? Thanks!

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Gene, all, the routes are 2 ways. You will need to know your location, and then know if you want to go right or left. If you can't figure it out, just say the destination pier to the guard or the ticket seller and they will help you out! Hope that helps.

[@samanthapathak6905]

you mentioned to take BTS from saphan taskin, so if we start from saphan takin ,where to get down , i mean which station of bts should we get down ??

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

You can take the BTS from anywhere to Saphan Taksin, which is located next to the central pier, where you can catch the boat! Hope that helps Alisha.

[@samanthapathak6905]

thanks, 1st of all,all ur videos are awesome in terms of quality and guidance, v nice, also plz let me knw i i wana go to wat arun, i will take orange boat get down at #8 tha thein and from there do i have to take a sencond fery to reach there or how it is please guide me.

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Alisha, thank you for your kind words. To answer your question, the boat stops at the side of Wat Arun, so when u exit the boat, you are already there.

[@samanthapathak6905]

ohh, is it, nice, i really appreciate your immediate response,thanks once again for the help.

[@KanborZevenProd]

Co van Kessel Bangkok - Bike and Boat tours . When what next

[@myworldAI]

Take a express to nonthaburi & have a haircut there -there are more than 20 hair salons near the nonthaburi ferry terminal

[@Kidtheung]

how do we know whether the boat goes forward (pier 1 to 7) or goes backward (pier 7 to 1)?

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

You can ask the help of a staff member, or if you know where you are, you can tell if the boat goes from left to right or from right to left. Use a map to understand the directions.

[@mellisarochman7694]

Do we have to buy ticket again after we stop in one pier?

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Yes, the tickets you buy on the pier or on board are for a one way only. If you want to visit more stops in one day, we recommend buying the full day ticket. With this ticket you can hop on and off everywhere you want.

[@KhanShahin24-iy2zd]

[@yoga7788]

Really enjoyed this informative video. Just one issue you said, "monks can touch a woman," did you mean to say, a monk Cannot touch a woman. I do not believe a monk can touch a woman. Thanks great video.

[@covankesselbangkok-bikeand5725]

Hi Yogamantra, yes she said: monks can't touch a woman. It's a little tricky to hear correctly, we agree.
