About this activity
You will be met by your guide upon your morning arrival at Laem Chabang Port. From here, travel approximately 2-hours to Bangkok.
First up, head to the Jim Thompson House, a stunning example of traditional Thai architecture located in the heart of the city. The property boasts a fantastic collection of artifacts and artwork for all to see and admire.
After this quick culture fix, jump aboard Bangkok’s excellent Skytrain system, or BTS, for the short ride from Siam to Saphan Taksin pier. Here, swap the train for a boat and ride along the majestic Chao Phraya River towards the capital’s most famous temples: the Grand Palace and Wat Pho. The Grand Palace is certainly the more grandiose of the two, presenting numerous temple buildings as well as the highly revered Wat Phra Kaew - home to the Emerald Buddha dating back to the 14th Century.
Finally, hop on-board a tuk-tuk and hold tight while you make a beeline for Wat Pho, situated next door to the Grand Palace. Here, you can’t miss out on at least a glimpse of the 46-metre-long reclining Buddha, featured in “Lion Sleep” position.
To wrap up your day, sit back and let the highly-skilled Wat Pho masseurs work the kinks and soreness out of your feet at the temple's very own massage school.
Once the day is complete you will return to Laem Chabang Port.
