Morning arrival in Bangkok, you are picked up and transfer to hotel. Afternoon we take boarding on a long
tail boat for an excursion along the Chao Phraya River and many bustling interior canals that offer
fantastic views of local life close by. Along the way, we stop at Wat Arun, the temple of the Aube.
Time free and overnight in Bangkok.
After breakfast, we visit the Grand Royal Palace dedicated to the ceremony of the royal family of
Thailand. In the same compound is the magnificent Wat Phra Kaew which is known for the Statue of the
Emerald Buddha. After visiting this complex, we continue to visit Wat Pho, a giant house of the lying
Buddha.
Afternoon transfer to the Jim Thompson house, in the heart of Bangkok’s city center: start by learning the
story of the American businessman and traveler, who made it his life’s work to bring Thai silks to the
world’s fashion houses, and then explore his remarkable home. This is one of the best places in Bangkok to
see traditional Thai teak homes, as Thompson assembled his using historic houses shipped to Bangkok from
around the country. Find out what is known — and what remains a mystery — about Thompson’s 1967
disappearance in the Malaysian jungle, then explore the collection of art that he assembled during 25
years in Thailand.
Overnight in Bangkok.
In the morning, we will depart to Ayutthaya; it takes about more than hour to reach the former
Thai capital. Witness the glory of the ancient capital through its temple and palace ruins. First
you will visit Wat Phu Khao Thong, or the “Monastery of the Golden Mount”, which is located
just outside Ayutthaya. Then you will proceed to the ancient palace and Wat Phra Si Sanphet.
You will also visit Viharn Phra Mongkol Bopit, one of the largest bronze Buddha’s in Thailand.
Have lunch on your own . Afterwards you will visit Wat Lokaya Sutha. This temple
enshrines a large reclining Buddha image. Our last visit will be the Bang Pa-In Summer Palace,
built during the Ayutthaya era. The palace showcases an eclectic collection of buildings that
blend European, Khmer, Thai and Chinese architectural styles. It’s the favorite summer palace of
the King.
At the end of the afternoon, return to the hotel and free time for relaxation.

“Ali Travel's service is excellent, and the advisors at every store are professional. We are two seniors and have travelled with them to Cuba, Yellowknife, the Dominican Republic, Cancún and China — every experience was fantastic.…”
“The whole trip went very smoothly. Canace was very professional — she managed the route and timing well and solved any issue promptly, which took a load off our minds. The pacing was just right: relaxed, not exhausting. A very go…”
“Ali Travel was great and professional, highly recommend! Their pricing was competitive and they had a lot of variety to choose from. I look forward to booking with them again for my next vacation!”

Reserve online and pay the CAD $300 per-person deposit right away (unless a different amount is stated for this tour) — that secures your booking. We then confirm availability, usually within 24 hours, and update your booking status — if we cannot confirm your reservation, your deposit is refunded in full. The balance is due 30 days before departure. The deposit option applies to bookings made more than 60 days before departure — within 60 days of departure, full payment is required at booking.
Price adjustments (Travel Industry Act, 2002 — O. Reg. 26/05): increases resulting from retail sales or federal tax changes excepted, if the total price rises by more than 7% you may cancel for a full refund — and no price increase is permitted after you have paid in full.
Card details are entered directly into Moneris, Canada’s largest payment processor — your card number never reaches our servers.
