On this guided tour, we'll visit two of Bangkok's must-see attractions: the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, home to the famous Emerald Buddha.
Tour of Grand Palace + Wat Phra Kaew
At the time you choose upon booking, we'll meet at the Golden Place to start this tour of some of Bangkok's most famous landmarks. As we cross the white walls and step into the complex, we'll begin our 2-hour guided tour of this historical site, which hosts most of Thailand's commemorative events and has been visited by figures such as Bill Clinton and Pope John Paul II.
Throughout the tour, we’ll explore the massive home of the royal family, observing statues, intricate art, and significant historical landmarks.
We'll then access the temple of the Emerald Buddha, or Wat Phra Kaew, also within the Grand Palace complex. This site contains the most revered religious icon of the Thai people, a sculpture carved from a single piece of green jade, adorned with robes of pure gold. The temple grounds are notable as well.
After 2.5 hours of touring with the guide, our tour will conclude.
