Bangkok: Ayutthaya Temples + Rice-Field Café Day Tour

Ayutthaya in a Day — Ancient Temples, a Rice-Field Café & a Sweet Local Surprise

Want to see Thailand's ancient capital without wrestling with buses, trains and temple-hopping logistics? This small-group day tour from Bangkok does the work for you: hotel pickup in a comfortable air-conditioned van, an English-speaking guide all day, and entrance fees to every temple on the route already covered.

In one day you'll wander the eclectic halls and lakeside pavilions of Bang Pa-In Palace, stand before the towering Khmer-style prangs of Wat Chaiwatthanaram, come face-to-face with the famous Buddha head wrapped in tree roots at Wat Mahathat, and climb the long staircase and greet the giant reclining Buddha at Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon — the temple you may recognize from Lost in Thailand.

Between temples, refuel at a rice-field café (lunch at your own expense — great photo stop), and taste Roti Sai Mai, Ayutthaya's iconic candy-floss-in-a-wrapper treat, on us.
