Hidden Full Day Koh Kret Island Tour near Bangkok City

Ferry across the Chao Phraya to Koh Kret's Mon pottery village, try your hand at a traditional workshop, roast your own coffee, and end with a craft beer at a riverside bar on this private full day escape from Bangkok. Just outside Bangkok, the island of Koh Kret sits quietly in the Chao Phraya River, home to a Mon community famed for centuries of pottery craftsmanship. This full day escape trades the city for a slower, hands on pace. Cross by ferry to the island and wander its market stalls, sampling local snacks before watching artisans shape distinctive red and black glazed pottery, then try your own hand at the wheel. Continue to Baan Silp Siam, an artist's house dedicated to traditional Thai crafts including khon masks, before a riverside lunch overlooking the water. The day continues with a do it yourself coffee experience, roasting and grinding beans yourself, and winds down with a craft beer at a small riverside bar.
