Highlights
  • Bangkok - Pick up from any hotel in the Bangkok city area.

    Your first stop will be Wat Pho. Wat Pho, or the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is the most settled and greatest Buddhist temple in Bangkok. It is home to more Buddha pictures than some other Bangkok temples, and it shields the greatest Buddha in Thailand.

  • The Grand Palace - The Grand Palace was a past living plan for King Rama I to King Rama V of the Rattanakosin Kingdom. Today, the place is used for encouraging magnificent administrations and regarding the ruler’s guests, State guests, and other outside dignitaries. It is furthermore a place where remains of rulers and high-situated people from the majestic family were organized before incineration.

  • Wat Phra Kaew - Continue getting a charge out of Wat Phra Kaew. The Wat Phra Kaew, generally called “the temple of the Emerald Buddha,” arranged inside the grounds of the Grand Palace in Bangkok, is Thailand’s most sanctified temple and a basic adventure site for Thai Buddhists. The temple honors Thailand’s most exceptional Buddha image, the Emerald Buddha. The image is housed in the ubosot (appointment corridor), which was built to a great degree in the middle of the second half of the eighteenth century, after King Rama I had set up Bangkok as the new capital of Siam. The dividers of the Rattanakosin-style building are adorned with artwork.

Fun and informational tour - Excellent and informative tour of the major sites in Bangkok. The tour was very well-paced, seeing a lot but not overly exerting. Our guide Gimao (Chutima Nawsoon) was awesome! She's very knowledgeable about all the sites and general Thai history and also very fun! We learned a lot about general Thai culture from her and conversation was flowing and easy. I highly recommend asking for her to guide your tour.

Best tour - We were two friends in the age pf 70+ that had booked a Mam Holidays Thailand private half day tour via Viator in Bangkok. The tour in a comfortable modern Toyota city van went to from the Grand Palace to Vat Arun. We also discussed and changed the tour from a market to the Marble Temple. The guide, Ms. Supatsara Wonghong, "Ms. Aey", gave us essential and interesting historic facts about the temples, the kings and the city. She oriented us in a calm way with bright friendliness. The tour was more expensive than other tours with more participants, but it was clearly worth it. Great many thanks to Aey and the driver.

Could have had a better guide - Tour of these 3 sites is a good half day. They are busy and crowded most of the time so no surprise. The experience wasn’t what it could have been because the guide seemed more interested in hurrying through to make some schedule rather than taking the time. My wife uses a cane for long days like these and I often had to walk ahead and tell the guide to slow down When she did explain things, it was difficult to impossible to hear her because of a low voice level made worse by wearing a mask. With another guide this could have been much better. A bonus if you do this on a week day is you get free entrance into the Masked Dance at the Royal Palace after the tour. (Starts at 1 pm I think)
