When to Visit Vietnam and Thailand?
Royal-palace-Bangkok

Fill up on an included breakfast at the hotel before a full day exploring Bangkok on an included City Tour. Follow your local guide through the chaotic streets and quaint back alleys of Bangkok and visit the city’s two unmissable highlights.

Wander through China Town to the banks of the Chao Phraya River and visit Wat Pho to see the famous 46-metre-long Reclining Buddha covered in gold leaf! Continue to the Grand Palace just nearby, the perfect example of an ancient Siamese court, to witness the magical atmosphere. You may get a chance to visit the Temple of Emerald Buddha, located within the palace compound. There is a strict dress code at the Grand Palace so be sure to cover your shoulders and knees with loose-fitting such as long pants and shirts.

Travel on the Chao Phraya River (The River of Kings) and on through the Klongs (canals) of Thonburi. You will have the chance to observe and photograph the serene family homes and temples along the waterways, which gave the city the name “Venice of the East”.

You will also pay a visit to one of the most photographed sights in Bangkok, the Wat Arun. The majestic shrine has a pagoda as high as 76m and is decorated with glazed ceramic pieces that reflect the rising sun, giving the temple its name.

After a big day exploring Bangkok, head back to the hotel to enjoy the afternoon at your own leisure.

Damnoen-Saduak-Floating-Market

At 9.00 am, departure from Bangkok to visit three fascinating traditional Thai markets, including the Maeklong railway market, Amphawa floating market, and Damnoen Saduak floating market

Start your day with a visit to the Damnoen Saduak floating market, where you’ll board a wooden boat and slowly drift by busy stalls and vendors’ boats loaded with goods. Here, you can sample some local snacks and delicious fruits as you make your way through the hectic market.

Afterward, make your way back onto the land and head for the Holy Rosary Church, where you can admire its pristine exterior before entering into a marvelous show of colorful lights caused by its stained glass windows.

Following your exploration of a Catholic church, you’ll get to explore an iconic Buddhist temple, Wat Bang Kung! The temple has a serene atmosphere, allowing you to admire the Thai boxing statues and the many natural elements that have slowly taken over the temple over the years.

Then, you’ll explore the unconventional Maeklong Railway Market, where trains occasionally ride straight through the market, with stalls quickly moving out of the way as if it were natural. You will also explore another traditional market — the Amphawa Floating Market — where you can discover a variety of goods, such as fresh produce, dried seafood, and many delectable Thai snacks!

Then we go firefly watching right at Amphawa and indulge in the sight of tiny sparkling fireflies lighting up the riverbank.

After that, we back to hotel for rest.

    My journey through Thailand and Vietnam over 16 days was nothing short of incredible. Each day brought a new adventure, from the vibrant streets of Bangkok to the serene beauty of Hoi An. The seamless blend of cultural immersion, breathtaking landscapes, and meticulous organization by Vietnam Tour 247 made this experience unforgettable. The warmth and hospitality of the people I met along the way truly enriched my travel experience, making it not just a tour, but a profound exploration of two beautiful countries.

This was my second time using the tour operator, and I have complete trust in their services. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly commendable.
