Half Day City & Temples include Grand Palace
Bangkok’s Buddhist temples are world famous, and this tour takes us to three of the most unusual ones that this city has to offer. We start at the ornate Wat Trimitr which is situated at the end of buzzing Chinatown’s Yaowarat Road, and also near to Hua Lampong train station. This temple is home to a vast invaluable Golden Buddha that weighs five-and-half tons adding to this remarkable site.
Next is the largest temple complex in Bangkok, Wat Po, which has an impressive reclining Buddha that is 46 metres in length as well as ornate chedis. No temple tour is complete without a visit to the gleaming Grand Palace which is one of the most beautiful examples of a traditional Siamese Court. Previously the residence of royalty, there are a number of different venues for different occasions including the Funeral Palace, the Reception Palace, the Throne Hall, the Coronation Hall, the Royal Guest House and the famed Emerald Buddha Temple.

Thailand’s floating markets hold cultural significance in the country with many tourists wanting to experience this tradition. Damnoen Saduak is dubbed as the ‘real floating market’ and is around 110 km west of Bangkok. A trip to this Thai phenomenon is like travelling back to the ancient times of the Siam Kingdom where colorful clad merchants paddle along the narrow canals. Here we witness the traditional ways of trading fruit, vegetables and other small items from small boats. There are also traditional Thai houses to view, and we learn how boats are a vital mode of transport for locals in their everyday lives. This tour includes a visit to the famed Maeklong Railway where stalls are erected trackside and hastily moved as trains arrive. |
Go beyond tourist zones for the most enjoyable midnight eating adventure. After the moon comes up, cruise along Bangkok streets via this city’s iconic 3-wheel, Tuk Tuk, to visit Bangkokian’s favorite places to eat. Taste a variety of savory menus, including the local favorite Northeastern Thai Food (Esan Food), the town’s Best Pad Thai, and the popular home-style Thai snack. Between the bites, visit old-town landmarks and temples for a different perspective compared to the busy day time scene. Discover the side of Bangkok wholly unknown to visitors. We will finish the tour by the Cinderella’s time.

Early Bird Phi Phi Island (Full Day)
We’ve carefully created a one-of-a-kind, relaxed Phi Phi Island tour from Phuket. This full-day speedboat excursion ensures you’ll explore the marvels of these islands at your own pace, far away from the buzzing tourist crowds.
Ready for a glimpse into this exceptional adventure?
Get ready to embrace an exciting day that begins at dawn! We'll whisk you from your hotel to our private lounge at the Royal Phuket Marina, where a steaming cup of coffee and a snack await. As the sun starts to unveil the day before 7:00 AM, our speedboat will glide towards the majestic Phi Phi Islands. Yes, it's an early start, but the breathtaking views will make it all worthwhile!
Our adventure kicks off at the world-renowned Maya Bay, a stunning location brought to fame by Leonardo Di Caprio's movie "The Beach". Follow a short nature trail and you'll discover a heavenly sight, an exquisite beach that undeniably ranks among the world's most beautiful!
A quick speedboat ride later, the enchanting Pileh Lagoon unveils itself - another breathtaking location featured in "The Beach". Here, an irresistible invitation awaits you: dive into the crystal-clear emerald waters for a refreshing swim. Surrender to this sublime, natural wonder!
Next on your itinerary is a quick photo stop at the intriguing Viking Cave. Known for its ancient wall paintings and its current role as the center for the swiftlet birds’ nest industry, this cave makes for a fascinating snapshot of local culture and nature. Have your camera at the ready for this remarkable sight!
Your adventure proceeds with a stop at Monkey Beach, home to the region's charming Macaque monkeys. For the safety of our guests and out of respect for these wonderful creatures, we'll be capturing their antics from the safety of our boat (no beach landing). So, keep your cameras handy for these delightful, furry models.
Next, we whisk you away to Tonsai Bay at Phi Phi Don Island, where you can choose your own adventure! You can either hike up to a breathtaking viewpoint – a spot that promises epic selfies against an awe-inspiring panorama. If hiking isn't your cup of tea, explore the vibrant local village or simply unwind on the golden beach. This destination is yours to enjoy as you please!
Next, gear up for an exhilarating snorkeling adventure at Phi Phi. With our top-notch equipment at your disposal, you'll plunge into the serene underwater world teeming with colorful coral reefs and diverse marine life. Immerse yourself in this underwater spectacle – it's an experience that will leave you spellbound!
Enjoy a leisurely lunch on the powdery white sands of the beach, no rush, no worries. With ample time to relax, soak up the sun's warmth, or indulge in a refreshing swim, you'll get to truly experience the beach paradise before we return to the speedboat. Savor these tranquil moments to the fullest!
Ps. During the rainy season, we may occasionally relocate lunch to a local restaurant to provide an enjoyable lunch experience.
As your Phi Phi Islands adventure comes to a close, we'll sail back to the Royal Phuket Marina. Reflect upon the cherished memories you've created with Siam Adventure World throughout the day. We'll then ensure your comfortable transfer back to your hotel, leaving you with a heart full of joy and unforgettable experiences.
