Overview

This excursion combines the three most popular Buddhist temples in Bangkok. Start the tour with a visit to the Royal Grand Palace, a great architectural masterpiece of several buildings from the outside and a magical inside, which was used as a royal residence from the 18th century to the mid-20th
century. It is without any doubt a national reference and possibly the most visited royal monument of Thailand, which shouldn’t be missed. The building houses "Wat Po", Bangkok's oldest temple, in which is located the famous gold leaf-covered reclining Buddha. This tour includes also the temple
"Wat Traimit" with its 5.5-ton Golden Buddha. On the way back you will have a chance to see many magnificent temples and architectural buildings, for example the City Pillar Shrine, National Museum, Democracy Monument, Golden Mountain, and the Parliament House along Ratchadamnoen Road
(The Royal’s Way).

The tour itself was very good and our tour guide Reno was excellent! Full of information about not only the temples, but Bangkok/Thailand in general - and he was very engaging and funny. However, the tour ended at a gemstone factory which was completely unexpected and definitely not included in the advertised itinerary. Free shuttle bus service was offered from there back to our hotel. The temples/palace were about 20 min. from our hotel, but the ride back from the gemstone factory took 65 min. What a waste of our vacation time - very disappointing!

Our guide Ting was prompt, attentive and friendly. It was packed, hot and busy but he was able to cover a lot and tried to accommodate everyone. Covered a lot of temples and provided helpful information. The gem factory was not necessary but we truly had a good time.

Places we went to were as expected but the guide was terrible. Did not know what he was talking about, only mumbled a few things at each place, lost people all the time as he did not get instructions on where and when to meet. Also we were supposed to be an English speaking tour but we were joined with a Romanian group and their interpreter talked over our guide all the time. Just a horrible day.

The different Buddhas and the size sof the reclining Buddha. The sites were very impressive , but the government should regulate the people, there were to many tourists and some were not very respectful with clothing, photos and to others
