On our recent visit to Bangkok we did a half day bike tour of Bang Krachao with SpiceRoads Cycle Tours. This is really a fascinating spot literally minutes away from the hustle & bustle & normal chaos that is Bangkok. It is like you get off the river & suddenly you are in a different world. Cycle tour was definitely a great way to go. Our guide took us all over & viewed the sights & sounds (or lack thereof!) of the area. Interesting to ride along the elevated pathways through the fields & jungle, coming across houses tucked away & then on to beautiful park then back into the jungle where you could miles from anywhere. Definitely worth a visit, for the contrasts it provides & for the natural beauty of the area. It was fairly dry when we went, but could imagine the beauty of the area after a period of rain.
