TOUR DESCRIPTION
Day 1
This tour is a great way to begin your exploration of Bangkok with a visit to this mega cities true heart and center! On this day trip, we will collect you from your Bangkok hotel and take you to our first destination of the day which is Bangkok's most important palace and temple complex 'The Grand Palace'. The Grand Palace was built as a royal residence and over the years many additions have been made including the stunning Wat Prah Kaew which houses the Emerald Buddha carved out of a single piece of Jade! After the Grand Palace, we proceed to Wat Po famous for its Thai massage school and its giant reclining Buddha. We will stop for lunch before heading to the mighty Chao Phraya river where we will board a long tail boat for a ride along the Chao Phraya. From this great vantage point, you will be right amongst river life and see Bangkok from a different perspective. We will soon leave the main river for the backwater canals in Thonburi where you will see a more sedate and traditional way of living as we make our way up and down narrow canals a long way from the hectic pace and traffic of usual Bangkok life. After disembarking the long tail boat we will take a cross-river ferry to Wat Arun one of Bangkok's most iconic temples. You will be able to get close up and climb partway up the Pagoda to get a panoramic view over the Chao Phraya. Our last destination of the day will be the busy Yaworat district of Bangkok (China Town) we will see the solid gold Buddha at Wat Traimit. At the end of the day, we will transfer you back to your Bangkok hotel.
