The Top 10 Activities For Thrill Seekers In Bangkok

If there ever was a beach paradise that was, ironically enough, not on the beach, it would be Flow House Bangkok. Escape the urban city to surf in the heart of the city at Bangkok’s only surfing machine, FlowRider. If you do not feel like taking on the thrilling FlowRider, no problem. Guests are more than welcome to go to Flow House Bangkok just to hangout, grab a beer and watch other hopeful surfers wipe out on the giant wave simulator. Great music plays throughout and the friendly staff are eager to please those who are not surfing. Admission to ride is ฿750 (about $21) per hour for walk-ins. Flow House Bangkok also offers discounted prices for those who purchase FlowCards.

Easykart

Too scared to take to the busy streets of Bangkok? Fair enough, but that does not mean you cannot drive for the entirety of your trip. Instead, check out Easykart in Bangkok. Weave in and out of Easykart’s intricate track in one of their exhilarating go-karts, some of which can go up to 70 kilometers per hour. If you are not racing, feel free to check out their lounging area, equipped with a pool table, restaurant and more. Children, depending on their size, race for ฿500-600 (about $17). Those riders who are 15-years-old and older, or those who are at least 150 centimeters tall, can purchase two races for ฿1,300 (about $37).

Go Bangkok Tours

Explore the city on bike with Go Bangkok Bicycle Tours. This is certainly one of the best ways to see the city, as the BTS Skytrain can only go so far and there is seemingly always some traffic, making traveling via taxi simply a hassle. With Go Bangkok Tours, you can rent a bicycle and venture out on your own, purchase its GPS Guidepack to navigate the city yourself or hire your own personal guide, who is able to show you the ins-and-outs of the city like no other travel or guidebook could.

The paths are not particularly wide either, making every ride an exhilarating one. Admission is ฿200 (about $6) a day.

BOUNCEinc Thailand

Having opened just last December, BOUNCEinc certainly kicked off in Bangkok with a bang. Forget gravity: at BOUNCEinc, fly as you wish from one trampoline to the next, with over 80 to choose from.

SEA LIFE Bangkok Ocean World

Explore the depths of the ocean without ever having to leave the city at SEA LIFE Bangkok Ocean World. SEA LIFE offers many exhilarating tour packages, including its ocean feeding boat, where participants get up close and personal with sharks and stingrays and its exciting 4D cinema experience. Our favorite, however, is its diving with sharks package. Participants will get face-to-face with some of the ocean’s most feared wildlife, including sand tiger sharks, leopard sharks and more. Pricing ranges from ฿5,300-6,600, (about $151-188) depending on how much diving experience you have.
