Arrival in Ayutthaya, the Ancient Capital of Siam

Upon arrival at this impressive archaeological site, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you’ll feel as though you have travelled back in time. Our exploration of its most iconic temples includes:

• Wat Maha-That: Witness Ayutthaya’s most famous image: the serene head of Buddha mysteriously embraced by the roots of a sacred tree.
• Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit: Take a moment to admire the majestic golden image of the Great Buddha, a statue radiating peace and devotion.

Boarding the Grand Pearl Luxury Cruise

• We’ll swap land for water for the second part of our adventure. You’ll board the magnificent Grand Pearl cruise, where an exquisite buffet lunch awaits, featuring a delicious selection of international and Asian cuisine. As you cruise along the legendary “River of Kings”, the Chao Phraya, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of riverside life, passing Koh Kred Island, famous for its pottery.

Iconic Views of Bangkok

• Spend the afternoon enjoying a relaxing cup of coffee or tea on deck as the cruise makes its way into the heart of Bangkok. You’ll enjoy a unique and unforgettable perspective of the city’s most iconic landmarks: the Grand Palace, the Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun) and historic Wat Kalayanamitr.
