Behind the concept of Rock Around lies the idea of stepping off the beaten path, escaping the tourist crowds, and focusing exclusively on thecultural heritage of the Thai capital and its hidden gems with a unique approach: narrating Bangkok’s history from Ayutthaya to the present day in an engaging, educational, playful and responsible manner.
These are either fully bespoke or thematic immersive tours designed to showcase Bangkok’s rich history, art, architecture, traditions, and unique stories.
We go beyond surface-level sightseeing by tailoring itineraries to participants’ interests—be it exploring defensive canals and infrastructure, colonial-inspired architecture, creative districts, local communities and parks, art zones, or cultural institutions, etc.
Tours focus on authenticity, including off-the-beaten-path locations, local artisans, and nuanced narratives about Bangkok’s evolution from its Rattanakosin roots to modern-day.
Participants are invited to reflect on the socio-cultural and historical significance of what they see, fostering a deeper appreciation of Thai culture.
Playing games in museums elevates traditional museum visits by introducing interactive, game-like elements.
Participants may engage in activities such as matching artworks with their creators, interpreting Thai art motifs, or solving puzzles that lead them through different museum exhibits.
These games transform passive viewing into active learning, making art and history more accessible and exciting for participants of all backgrounds.
By creating a playful yet structured environment, they encourage participants to connect with Thai art and culture on a deeper, more personal level.
These activities transform cultural exploration into collaborative exercises that strengthen team dynamics.
Activities such as treasure hunts, quizzes, and problem-solving games in historical settings encourage teamwork, critical thinking, and creativity.
They also blend entertainment with education, allowing participants to learn about Bangkok’s heritage while engaging in fun and challenging tasks.
By placing teams in cultural contexts—like navigating a museum or solving riddles in a historical market or Buddhist temple—these activities create a shared sense of discovery and achievement.
If you are looking to purchase or commission high-quality works of art by talented Thai artists, we provide privileged access to a curated community of Thai artists. Let us know about your search or project, and we will guide you through to completion.
Exploring Bangkok's cultural heritage means encountering works of art created by contemporary Thai artists, whether they are emerging, mid-career, or established, producing traditional or modern art.
For example, Khon Masks are the heart of Thailand's traditional Khon performance, a dance-drama that brings to life the epic Ramakien tales. These meticulously crafted masks represent gods, demons, and mythical creatures, each color and detail symbolizing traits and fates of the characters.
