What to expect

Bangkok takes on a different pace on this half-day tour, combining local traditions, colourful sights and a few camera-roll favourites along the way. After a drive through the bustling streets of Chinatown, you'll arrive at Pak Khlong Talat, the city's famous flower market, where vibrant displays of fresh blooms create plenty of Instagrammable moments. You'll also learn the traditional art of lotus petal folding and create your own flower offering.


Next up is Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen, home to one of Bangkok's most impressive landmarks. Standing beneath the towering Giant Buddha, you'll have the chance to present your self-folded lotus flower as a traditional Buddhist offering. Between the colourful details of the temple grounds and the statue's sheer scale, you'll see why this is one of Bangkok's most photographed spots.


A stroll through the surrounding neighbourhoods offers a glimpse into everyday local life before a well-earned break at a cafe overlooking the Giant Buddha. With a complimentary drink included and views worth lingering over, there's time to snap a few final photos before heading back to your hotel.

If you'd like to see Bangkok through the eyes of a local, then you'll be in for a treat with this small group half-day tour.

You'll visit three temples - Wat Traimit, Wat Mangkorn Kamalawat and Wat Arun – and get a real taste for the city.It all kicks off at the entrance to MRT Sukhumvit Station, where you'll board the underground to Hua Lamphong. You'll refuel with a quick snack from one of the stalls first, then set off to Wat Traimit – the Temple of the Golden Buddha – famed for its 5.5-tonne Golden Buddha statue. After walking down Yaowarat Street, you'll arrive at Wat Mangkorn Kamalawat, the Dragon Lotus Temple.Before boarding a boat, you'll get to explore part of the old market, then breeze upstream through the action to Wat Arun. Some more city discovery is on the cards now with a tuk tuk ride, then snap up panoramic views before you reach Siam station.
