  • Canal Taxi Boat rides in Bangkok are cheap and fast. Join me for a boat ride from Pratunam Pier (Interchange) to Phanfa Leelard Pier. From Phanfa Leelard, you can walk to Golden Mount, Giant Swing and Old Town. That will be covered in future videos. Along the canal, you will see beautiful graffiti art, bridges and local homes. Thanks for joining me for this experience 😀

    A very interesting (and cheap!) way to get around. Thank you for showing this.

      The canal scenes are beautiful. Especially the graffiti art. This is a side of Bangkok that tourists will not get to see. It's also a cheaper and faster way to travel in the city.

      Travelling alone has it's advantages. You can go wherever you like without having to convince your travelling companion. I had always wondered how it was like to travel on the canals. Now I know, and it was a wonderful experience and a great way to experience local lifestyle. Thanks for the Like.

    Just remember to keep your ticket while transferring from the Eastern route to the Western one. You don't have to buy a second ticket!

      I didn't know that I needed to change boat on my first trip. Luckily I kept my ticket with me.

    If you can still remember, how long was the travel from Pratunam to Panfa Leelard? We're planning on going to the Golden Mount early in the morning. We're thinking about using this mode of transportation instead of using the train system.

      I can't remember. I checked with Microsoft Copilot (AI) and the reply is 16 mins 😀

    *I have experience once. But it was so hard to go deep into the local village and come out. I remember having a hard time because I couldn't communicate. By the way, I think this Canal boat taxi is very cheap and nice public transportation.**9:40**💯💯👍👍14*

    How do you know when you have arrived at your intended stop/pier? Do they announce it?

    • @SingaporeCityWalks
      @SingaporeCityWalks  3 місяці тому

      My destination was Phanfa - the last stop where everybody has to get out. I wouldn't know where to get off if I were to get off mid way. From Phanfa I walked to the Golden Mount, Giant Swing and the Old Town.

    Is it very smelly considering it is sewage water?

    • @SingaporeCityWalks
      @SingaporeCityWalks  Рік тому

      Yes it was smelly at some stretches of the canal. The water is severely polluted.

  • @siddd88

    What is the best idea to replace that transparent plastic screen. It also ruin the view esp those who r recording n snapping pics throughout the historic water routes

    • @SingaporeCityWalks
      @SingaporeCityWalks  11 місяців тому

      They need to use plastic screens because the canal waters are polluted and black in colour. It will splash when boats pass each other. It's also for keeping out the rain. The operators should replace the screens periodically but would they? I don't think so. These are fast and cheap transport for locals.
      The best way to take pictures is to stand at the entry and exit point with the agreement of the boat conductor.

    Why are so many UA-camrs copying each other with the same mistake?
    They are ferries, not "taxis". I have used them for 14 years.

    • @SingaporeCityWalks
      @SingaporeCityWalks  15 днів тому

      In Bangkok, these are known as river taxis.

      No, that's completely wrong.
      As I said, I have used them for 14 years & my Thai girlfriend I have known all that time agrees with me.
      It's a canal also, not a river.
