Rise and shine for an early morning cruise to Wat Sala Daeng. Once you arrive a local guide will take you on a morning walking tour to explore the Mon village. Be immersed in the hubbub of morning activity as you walk. Perhaps you’ll even learn some local Mon wisdom along the way.

Back on the boat, enjoy breakfast as you continue your journey to Bang Pa-In. Once you arrive, disembark to explore the sites of this beautiful summer palace of past royals.

Return to the boat and enjoy a delicious lunch onboard as your boat continues to cruise to the historical city of Ayutthaya. Along the way you will pass ancient landmarks including Wat Pananchoeng, Wat Putthaisawan and Wat Chai Wattanaram before stopping at Wat Niwet Thammaprawat to dock overnight. Spend the rest of the afternoon at your leisure or explore the sights of this unique Buddhist monastery.

Stop at Koh Kret Island, a lovely spot of green along the Chao Phraya and one of Thailand’s oldest settlements of Mon people. Spend some time enjoying the local sites and mingling with the community.

Lunch will be served onboard as the boat navigates around the island on its journey back to Bangkok.
