Klong Sansab Boat Taxis

1/5/2016

Picture
​Klong Sansab is a canal that runs through the heart of Bangkok (Klong is the Thai word for canal). The canal is used for a taxi boat service which runs between Bangkok's old town area and Bang Kapi districts in Bangkok. Getting on the boat taxi is not easy for the newby to the water taxis, for they have plastic sheet on the sides to protect the riders from getting splashed by the klong (canal) water and the boat is of course moving in the water. Once on the boat, you often have to stand as it can be quite full. Also, be aware that the entire roof of the boat can lower without warning to allow the boat to fit under the fast approaching bridge. This happens only at high tide.  Getting off the boat seems a bit easier because I had a chance to watch some of the practiced riders disembark on previous stops.  I suggest you do the same.
