We Didn’t Know This Existed in Bangkok, Thailand 🇹🇭
We didn't know this place existed in Bangkok! We've been coming to Bangkok for years now but it's our first time hearing about this tiny island on the Chao Phraya River called Koh Kret. They're well known for local markets, handicrafts and food. If you're bored of the shopping malls and cafes in the city, then join us on this adventure to visit the charming little island of Koh Kret!

For more of you guys to come visit this place. Taking a bus No.166 from Victory Monument is much easier and cheaper. BTS: Wat Phra Sri Mahathat or SRT Red Line: Lak Si connected with Bus No.51 is not the most convenient way to go but cheap too. In the near future MRT Pink Line will go directly to Pak Kret, Ko Kret pier is just walking distance from MRT station.

The boat only runs from Sathorn to Pakkret on the weekday afternoon. The alternative is taking a cab/bus to Sanam Nuea temple, 5 mins walk from Pakkret pier, and taking a 3 Bath boat ride to Koh Kret. It's much more lively there during the weekend. There's also a very good local craft beer bar on the island....highly recommended!

I visited Koh Kret in November just before COVID hit. Like you, wife and I took the same ferry up the Chao Phraya river from Sathorn. It’s crazy the ferry does not go all the way to Koh Kret but the journey and views are nice. We took a very small speedboat, return trip it was THB800 as I remember. We also visited on a week day which suited us as we like to avoid the crowds. Also cycled around the island too which was very interesting. I recommend this day trip to others who like to see a different side of BKK.

We went to Thailand last August 2022 and on advice by our tour guide, we spent our last day riding that boat and spent a good portion of the day at Nonthaburi. It was a great treat off the beaten path. We ended that day going to IconSiam. So Koh Kret will be added to our list for future visits.
I took those river boats last year and went to Icon Siam. Will maybe check that Koh Kret next week when I leave Pattaya.

The Thai name is: Wat Sam Phran. This may make a great video for your supporters. Blessings

@14:14 Many traditional burials (ash scattering) into the Chao Pryah take place just off this point.
You speak Thai so excellent.
I went there early Jan 2023, public boat was 5 Baht on weekends and 10 Baht on weekdays from "Wat Bangchak" it's not accessible by any public transport but there's also ferry at "Wat Sanam Nuea" for 2 Baht. This one is closer to public transport, accessible by bus from Victory Monument or Phra Arthit Rd, Khao San area but it can take more than an hour to get there.
Good video
You can leave from the Pa Kret pier and I think it was only 10 baht to get across on the ferry. It took about 60 seconds to get across to the island. But you have to take a taxi to the Pa Kret pier either from the Nonthaburi pier, or from the Ministry of Public Health Purple Line MRT station. But the taxi ride takes about 25-30 minutes, and there is a cost for the taxi-- although it was not 1500 baht. But yes Ko Kret was loads of fun. Go on a Monday when there are almost no other tourists there and you have all those bike trails almost to yourself, and the locals, and the dogs.

What a cute couple
Thats what I'm living in Bangkok for ever and ever
Just a little tip: Ko Kret is not really the closest island near Bangkok. That would be Bang K(r)achao which is significantly bigger, a lot less crowded in the weekends and a bit more authentic (I went to Ko Kret a decade ago and it was a lot less touristy than now). For Bang Krachao it's just a quick taxi ride from Sikirit MRT station and then a little 2 min boat crossing for 20 baht. Then rent a bicycle for 100 baht/day (bring a copy of your passport). Also, I think you guys took a bit of an expensive route - From Nonthaburi Civic Center MRT (Purple line) you can get a taxi and within 15 mins (probably around 150 baht?) you are at the east pier to Ko Kret where you get a boat for a few baht. The MRT's from anywhere in the center should take around 45 minutes and around 60-70 baht one way.
OMG 😲 😱 From Nonthaburi pier you can take a public bus to Major Cineplex Pakkret and go to Wat sanamchai pier and take a taxi boat to Koh Kret pier on the opposite side of the river, overall cost does not exceed 50 baht per person and about 30 minutes if not traffic jam 😳

Ohhh we’ve read about this place, but didn’t went there at the end. Now I regret it 😅
If you don't want a private boat you can use public boat to go to Pakkred or Wat Klang Kret I think its the green flag boat but it doesn't have much travel you might have to go by bus to Pakkred or taxi to Wat Klang Kret Ko kret is just across Wat Sanam Nuea you can walk from Pakkred or Wat Klang Kret to Wat Sanam Nuea if the boat doesn't stop at Wat Sanam Nuea pier you can just ride a boat to cross Wat Sanam Nuea pier to Ko kret
