Itinerary
Arrival, Bangkok Temples & Evening Welcome

After check-in and rest, begin your pilgrimage with a guided visit to the iconic Grand Palace & Wat Phra Kaew — Thailand's most revered shrine. Continue to Wat Pho to see the magnificent reclining Buddha and experience traditional Thai massage (optional). Evening at leisure with an optional dinner cruise on the Chao Phraya River.
Note: The Grand Palace observes strict dress codes; visitors with inappropriate attire will be denied entry.
Riverside Shrines & City Pilgrimage
Cross the river by long-tail boat to visit Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) with its impressive prang towers. Explore Wat Saket (Golden Mount) for panoramic city views and stop at Wat Benchamabophit (Marble Temple) to admire its elegant architecture. Afternoon free for optional visits to local markets or a spa.
Tip: Early mornings have cooler temperatures and fewer crowds at major temples.
Transfer to Ayutthaya & Sunset Ruins
Depart Bangkok after breakfast for a scenic drive (approx. 1.5–2 hours) to Ayutthaya, the ancient capital and UNESCO World Heritage site. Start your exploration at Wat Mahathat (famous for the Buddha head in tree roots), then visit Wat Ratchaburana and Wat Phra Si Sanphet. Enjoy sunset views over the river and an overnight stay in Ayutthaya.
Important: Many archaeological sites are outdoors — bring sun protection and water.
Deeper into Ayutthaya & Bang Pa-In Palace, Return to Bangkok
Continue your guided tour of Ayutthaya in the morning with visits to Viharn Phra Mongkol Bopit (large bronze Buddha) and local ruins. Drive to Bang Pa-In Summer Palace to explore its elegant royal grounds. Return to Bangkok in the late afternoon for an evening at leisure — consider visiting the bustling night markets or rooftop views.
