Bangkok Boat Express Lines

Bangkok Boat Express Lines

Bangkok Boat Express Lines is a system of canal boat services throughout the Khlong Saen Saeb in downtown Bangkok, Thailand.

The most extensive of these services is the Chao Phraya Express Boat, which has as many as thirty stops along both banks of the Saen Saeb. There are limitations as the further north the route is the farther apart the stations are, impeding the ability of this water taxi to function as a true mass transit system.
