What To Expect

Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market)

A guide and driver await you in the morning at your hotel lobby and we will head out towards Chinatown, one of the world’s largest communities outside of China with a deeply rooted connection to Chinese culture. The morning starts with walking into the Pak Klong Talaad, the biggest wholesale and retail fresh flower market in Bangkok. The famous flower market is a sight to behold and one that will leave a deep impression. The sea of colours of abundant flowers will bring a new appreciation for nature and there isn’t a flower you can name that cannot be found at this site.

The best time to visit is between 2 and 4 am when the day’s deliveries arrive and the market is in full bloom.

Royal Barges National Museum

When in Bangkok, a Klong tour over the various waterways of the city and experience should be on your bucket list to understand why the city is called “Venice of the East. There is much more to see and do in the Thai capital with us on this boat trip. Particularly on the Thonburi side, a myriad of canals are truly inviting to take a peek on how life has stayed the same. No Klong tour is complete without stopping at two highly regarded sites that have found a permanent place along the river.

The Royal Barge Museum is a huge boathouse that displays eight royal, richly-decorated barges, including The Suphannahongsa or Golden Swan, the personal barge of the King. The barges were once used to transfer royalty across the Chao Phraya and are still used for the famed Royal Barge Procession which has been taking place for 700 years.

1 hours • Admission Ticket Included

Wat Arun

We end the morning at Wat Arun. Known as the ‘Temple of Dawn’, Wat Arun’s most prominent feature is a 70-metre high spire that is one of Thailand’s most famed icons, which even features on a ten baht coin. Built in the 18th century, the temple is dedicated to Aurna the Indian God of Dawn and it is built on the site of the palace of King Taksin.

Unfortunately, it is time to make our way back to shore for an air-conditioned transfer back to your Bangkok accommodation.
