This tour is suited for people who are looking for an introduction and heritage trail of Bangkok with spectacular destinations. We take you to visit Wat Pho which houses the beautiful Relining Buddha , it was the first university of Thailand and is the center of Traditional Thai Massage Education. A short walk to a small shuttle boat pier which takes you to other side of Chao Phraya River. Visit Wat Arun or Temple of dawn, known as such because the first light of the morning reflects off the surface of the temple with pearly iridescence. It is unique not only because of its riverside location, but also because the design is very different to the other temples. After that get a taste of traditional canal side life by visiting the Venice of the East. We go on a wonderful waterway journey on a Long-Tail Boat to see native life along the unique canals with lots of old and new Thai houses.
