Full description
Enjoy a fully private, full-day experience from Bangkok combining Thailand's three most celebrated cultural and historical destinations, ideal for couples, families, or groups of up to 9 people. Accompanied by a professional English-speaking guide and traveling in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle with direct hotel pick-up, the tour begins at the world-famous Maeklong Railway Market to witness the amazing spectacle of vendors retracting their stalls as the train passes by. Next, you will explore the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, enjoying a longtail boat ride through traditional canals. In the afternoon, the excursion moves to the ancient imperial capital of Ayutthaya to discover its imposing UNESCO World Heritage temples: Wat Mahathat with its iconic Buddha head entwined in tree roots, Wat Phra Si Sanphet (the former royal temple), Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon with its majestic central chedi, and the spectacular Khmer-style Wat Chaiwatthanaram on the riverbanks.
