Temple of the Golden Buddha (Wat Traimit), Bangkok, Thailand Offering this tour both in the morning as well as in the afternoon, our guide and driver pick you up from your hotel in Bangkok for 4 hours of getting an impression of the most stunning temples of Bangkok and the Grand Palace, Bangkok’s well-known building that breaths grandeur.
Our tour commences at the temple with the invaluable Golden Buddha. Located in Bangkok’s thriving Chinatown district, Wat Trimitr (also called Wat Traimit) is best known as the home of the largest known solid gold Buddha image in the world. Standing at 15 feet tall and weighing in at approximately 5.5 tons, this 700-year old statue has an interesting history. 60 minutes
Wat Phra Chetuphon, Bangkok, Thailand Driving through Chinatown, we arrive shortly at the grounds of Wat Po. This large and extensive temple neighbours the Grand Palace enclave and contains a gigantic gold plated Reclining Buddha, some 46 meters long and 15 meters high, with beautifully inlaid mother-of-pearl soles. Considered to be one of the worlds’ most famous temples, Wat Pho is also regarded as the first centre of public education and is sometimes called ‘Thailand’s first university’ 60 minutes
The Grand Palace, Bangkok, Thailand Situated close to the Chao Phraya, Bangkok’s River of Kings, the Grand Palace occupies nearly one square mile. The former royal residence of the Chakri Kings, the palace is the perfect example of an ancient Siamese court. Built in 1782 by King Rama I, it was the centre of power for more than 150 years. Today, the palace is Bangkok's major landmark and most popular tourist attraction and is often used for the occasional ceremony. The interiors of most of the buildings in the Grand Palace are closed to the public.
After this introduction to Thai Buddhist temples and the home of the former Kings of Thailand, we bring you back to your hotel.

It was great to be picked up at our hotel and taken in an air-conditioned car to the major sights. Our guide and driver made it easy to see everything, and they were nice and helpful. They listened to our requests, for example to visit the interesting Textile Museum at the Royal Palace, which most people don't see. (It also has an excellent gift shop.) Our only critique is that the guide had a heavy accent in English, and it could be hard to understand her at times. But the tour was very much worth doing, and we saw a great deal in one afternoon.

My guide was very knowledgeable and it was like a class in Thai Buddhism in 4 hours. The temples and the Grand Place are just stunning and it was nice to have a guide to keep the touts at bay at the Place as they can be relentless. Well worth the cost and would recommend the tour to Bangkok visitors.
