Begin your journey by meeting the group at the designated meeting point or hotel pick-up. From there, travel to Ayutthaya Province, a UNESCO World Heritage Site rich in history and culture. Your first stop is Wat Chaiwatthanaram, one of Ayutthaya’s most revered and picturesque temples. Commissioned in 1630 A.D. by King Prasat Thong as a tribute to his mother, this iconic temple showcases a stunning fusion of Thai and Khmer architecture, inspired by the grandeur of Cambodia’s Angkor temples. (Total time includes travel from Bangkok to Ayutthaya.)
