Private Day Trip to Ayutthaya from Bangkok
After meeting your host, get comfortable in your private car or minivan for the ride to the ancient capital of Siam or Thailand as we know it now. Stop at the Bang Pa-In Royal Palace, also known as the Summer Palace. Enjoy the walk through the postcard-like surroundings and listen to stories your private host has prepared for you.
After a dozen of beautiful photos and a mix of travelers, school kids groups and colonial architecture, head out to the main visit of the day, the Wat Phra Srisanpetch or The Royal Temple of Phra Srisanpetch Buddha Image. Take in the breathtaking temple complex as your host shares with you the history behind it. Next stop is the Wat Maha That or the Monastery of the great relic, an impressive temple which also hosts the famous Buddha stone head entwined within the roots of a tree. Wander around and observe the beautiful and well-preserved relics.
By now you’ll already have gotten a feeling of the magical land Ayutthaya is! It’s time for a delicious lunch (own expense) by the riverside. Relax as you observe the lazy boats going by on the river. If you like spices, this is a good time to get your fix. Otherwise, your host can help you get a milder version of the Thai delicious dishes. What better way to indulge in the after-lunch dip than going on a slow boat ride around the Ayutthaya island? Take a look at the local houses built on pillars just above the water and learn more about the Thai lifestyle from your host.
Time for another delicious snack! Go off the beaten track and check out how the Roti Saimai is made right in front of your eyes. As you get your sweet tooth fix, it might be a good idea to get some for later on. Head towards the final stop of your awesome Ayutthaya trip the less known Wat Warachet Tharam Temple where you’ll find out more about its unsettled history. Enjoy the quiet walk around the temple site as there are rarely crowds coming this way.
