Day 1: ARRIVAL BANGKOK

Arrive at the Bangkok International Airport, meet and greet and transfer to your hotel (transfer unescorted). Enjoy the rest of the day at leisure. Perhaps indulge yourself with a traditional Thai massage, delight your taste buds with the amazing local flavours and cap off the day by enjoying the sunset at any of the stylish rooftop bars which have blossomed in the city’s skyscrapers in recent years - the options are limitless.

Day 2: BANGKOK

Full day at leisure to discover Bangkok on your own or to take one of the many optional excursions available on the spot. For those who have never been to Bangkok we suggest a half day tour of the most popular Buddhist temple and Landmark in the city of angels (optional, not included). The Royal Grand Palace, a great architectural masterpiece of several buildings from the outside and a magical inside was used as a royal residence from the 18th century to the mid-20th century. It is without any doubt a national reference and possibly the most visited royal monument of Thailand, and it shouldn’t be missed. The building houses the "Wat Phra Kaew", Bangkok's most sacred temple, where the famous Emerald Buddha is located.

Overnight in Bangkok.

After lunch at a local restaurant continue by road with a stop at Wat Rong Khun, nicknamed the ‘White Temple’, a dazzling temple built in the 1990s.

At the present temple location, there was a ruin of a temple abandoned 80 to 100 years ago. In 1996, the villagers decided to rebuild a temple. The construction started in October 2005; the White Buddha was completed in 2008 while the main hall was only completed on January 2016.

Shoes should be removed before entering a temple or private house. Sun protection, sunglasses, a hat and mosquito repellent can be very useful during your stay.
