While the lockdown is easing up and slowly turning things back to normal, Bangkok is still considered quiet without visitors from outside the country. 

But let’s look at the bright side, it’s time for folks who are already here to get to know their city better.

After months of being temporarily closed, Bangkok-based sightseeing agency Expique is bouncing back and offering a series of free walking tours for folks in town. 

This is a great chance for us to explore the city’s hidden culture and history and see things we might have never noticed before.

All of the tours take place around old town Bangkok and Chao Phraya riverside as these areas have been around since the city’s founding days. Walkers will also get a closer look at Bangkok’s old neighbourhood and observe how the locals live their lives.
