Additional Information

The Hidden Temples Tour gives you the sensation of stepping into a bygone era. The quartet of temples featured in our itinerary stand in stark contrast to well-known sites like the Reclining Buddha, the Temple of Dawn, or the Temple of the Emerald Buddha.

Each sanctuary exudes an air of absolute serenity and tranquility, scarcely touched by the bustle of tourists, which is why this tour has been aptly dubbed ‘Hidden Temples’. Moreover, you’ll gain an expansive insight into Thai history from its early days to contemporary times. The canal we will traverse at the outset of our expedition was excavated by manual labor. A few of the temples once served as cremation sites during the Black Death in the era of King Rama II.

In conclusion, the tour’s value extends beyond the temples themselves; as we navigate our journey on foot, you will encounter, absorb, and comprehend the authentic essence of Thai culture.
