Given as above - Absolutely amazing! Despite the weekend crowds and the sweltering heat, my husband and I had a fantastic time exploring the Palace. We decided to hire a guide before our visit, and it proved to be a worthwhile investment for the insightful stories and information provided in English. One important tip for future visitors is to be mindful of the dress code. While many think it's sufficient to cover shoulders and knees, I learned firsthand that there are specific requirements. I wore leggings under a miniskirt, only to be informed that I needed to rent or buy a sarong to comply with the dress code before entering. It's a good idea to be prepared and ensure your attire aligns with the guidelines to fully enjoy this incredible experience.

A beautiful day out in Bangkok - What an incredible excursion in Bangkok! We, a group of four, booked through Travel Hub as our cruise ship docked 1.5 hours away from Bangkok. Our guide, Wat, was phenomenal. His knowledge, sense of humor, kindness, photography skills, and easy-going nature were truly appreciated. On the first day, we explored Ayutthaya, Bang Pa-In Summer Palace, Botanical Gardens, Wat Wan, and beautiful temples. To avoid the long drive back to the boat, we decided to stay overnight in the city and were picked up the next morning. Day two took us to the Grand Palace, Wat Phra (Emerald Buddha), Wat Arun, a long-tail boat ride, and the market. We experienced so much. I highly recommend this itinerary, and a massive thank you to Wat for everything. You were terrific!
