The Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya is a must see if you visit the area. It was an experience that was very fulfilling and life changing. Still in awe at the art and effort that was put into creating such a beautiful structure. Also, the lunch was amazing and the culture experience.

Absolutely fantastic day out. Boat (tour guide) was very accommodating going the extra mile making sure I had everything I needed on the trip. He took a million photos for me and was great company after being on my own travelling for some time - certainly worth the money. Although it’s a long drive from Bangkok the car was extremely nice and comfortable making the journey much easier.
