Tour Packages In Bangkok

It turns out one day is more than enough to see all the major tourist attractions in Bangkok plus sample some great food and enjoy the nightlife too. Whether you’re passing through on the way to another city or spending 1 day in Bangkok before making your way to the islands, it’s surprisingly easy to enjoy the best of Bangkok in a day. Following are the places which you can visit and enjoy in a day.

1.Grand Palace

Arguably Bangkok’s most impressive attraction, the Grand Palace is a huge complex of Thai temples and historical buildings. Highlights include Wat Phra Kaew, known in English as the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, and the Chakri Maha Prasat Hall.

Entry to the Grand Palace for non-Thais is 500 baht. There are several ways to access the Grand Palace. If you’re staying along the Riverside, take the Chao Phraya Express Boat to Tha Chang (N9) pier, then walk through the riverside market to the Grand Palace.

2.Wat Arun

Across the Chao Phraya from the Grand Palace is Wat Arun — the Temple of Dawn. One of Bangkok’s most picturesque and impressive temples, it’s a great temple to visit after you’ve seen Wat Pho. Take the three baht cross-river ferry from Tha Tien (N8) pier, near Wat Pho.

A popular way to see the Grand Palace, Wat Po, and Wat Arun is on the Walking Temple Tour, where your guide will ensure you take the fastest route between the temples and deal with all admission fees and transport.

3.Amulet Market

In the area around the Grand Palace, you’ll find Bangkok’s largest and most popular market for Buddhist amulets. Most of the amulets are purchased by people in dangerous professions seeking safety and good fortune.

4.Khlong Tours of the Chao Praya River

Bangkok’s busiest and most modern districts are located on the east side of the Chao Phraya River. Board a small teak boat – either a converted rice barge or a longtail boat, as made famous in the James Bond movie The Man With The Golden Gun – and adventure through the city’s eastern districts on historical klongs — canals that were once Bangkok’s primary transportation network.

5.The floating markets

One might feel as though they are entering a different world upon visiting a Thai floating market. Slender canals are crammed with boats selling an abundance of food and goods, while friendly vendors talk amongst themselves in Thai. While some countries in Asia have their own floating markets, none compare to Thailand’s, and the surreal experience is one you cannot miss while visiting the country.

Places to visit and enjoy in the evening are listed below:

1.Cabaret Show Tour

A favorite in Bangkok for roughly thirty years, the Calypso Cabaret Show has something for everybody. The performances range from captivating burlesque and traditional Thai dance routines to celebrity impersonations and slapstick comedy. Featuring over seventy professional transgender artists, the show celebrates the spirit of diversity through song, dance, and burlesque. It is one of the best night tours in Bangkok.

2.Theatre Tour

Siam Niramit is a world-class show set in the heart of Bangkok. The performers demonstrate important moments of Bangkok’s 700-year old history, reenact cultural festivals, and reveal ancient customs. The rich history and culture of Bangkok is brought to life by more than 150 performers. The thunderous sound effects, world-class lighting, and elaborate props add depth to the show.

3.Midnight Food Tour By Tuk Tuk

The tuk tuk is an iconic symbol of Bangkok. Some of you may be apprehensive about getting in a tuk tuk at night owing to the pollution and the heat, but according to travelers, that is just a misconception. The city’s pollution levels are bearable and the temperature drops considerably in the evening. Sample delicious street food, like meatballs and grilled sweet banana on a stick, at Klong San market.
