Description

Discover the ancient heritage of Thailand on a memorable sunset tour from Bangkok to Ayutthaya, the former capital of the Kingdom of Siam. Travel comfortably from Bangkok to the historic city and explore some of its most impressive temples, monuments, and centuries-old ruins.

Begin with a convenient pickup from your Bangkok hotel and travel to Ayutthaya. Explore Wat Mahathat, famous for its Buddha head embraced by the roots of a banyan tree, and visit Wat Ratchaburana to admire its distinctive ancient architecture. Continue to Wat Phra Si Sanphet, a former royal temple known for its iconic chedis and historic significance.

The highlight of the experience is a visit to Wat Chaiwatthanaram in the late afternoon. Set beside the Chao Phraya River, the temple creates a spectacular backdrop as the sun begins to set over the ancient ruins. Take photographs, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, and experience Ayutthaya during the beautiful golden hour.

An optional traditional boat cruise can also be added to experience Ayutthaya's waterways and riverside scenery. After the sunset experience, relax on the journey back to Bangkok with convenient hotel drop-off.
