Description
Thailand is predominantly Buddhist, with around 95% of Thais practising the Theravada discipline of Buddhism. So it's not unusual to see monks walking the streets of Bangkok. This small group half-day tour takes you to Bangkok's three most sacred and significant temples â Wat Pho, Wat Traimit and Wat Benchamabophit.
First up is Wat Traimit, known as the temple of the Golden Buddha, which protects a 3m tall Buddha statue crafted from more than 5 tons of solid gold. Then, it's onward to the second temple of the day â Wat Pho. It is known as the temple of the Reclining Buddha because of its large statues, which at an 46 metres in length and 15 metres in height, is the largest in the city.
The day's final temple is Wat Benchamabophit â the âTemple of the Fifth King' â which is famed for its intricate Italian marble detail. To round off the tour, there's a visit to a lapidary factory, where you can browse handicrafts, jewellery and silk.

Mejor de lo que esperaba
Reservamos a último momento y fue un acierto total. Muy buen guía, atento con todo el grupo y con paciencia infinita. Nos quedamos caminando por Bangkok después de la cena. Todo fluyó sin demoras ni esperas largas. Ojalá todos los tours fueran así.

Un placer
Simplemente perfecto. El detalle de transporte en vehículo con aire acondicionado suma bastante. La organización se notó, cero improvisación. Lo recomiendo sin dudar.

We spent the evening talking about how good it had been. We took loads of photos, the route hits all the right spots. Our guide remembered everyone by name, a nice touch. I did not expect hotel pickup and drop-off to be included, a nice bonus. Everything was handled digitally, nothing to print. Suitable for any age.

Superó las expectativas
Se pasó volando y nos quedamos con ganas de más. Los tiempos estaban bien calculados, no se sintió apurado. Llegar a Bangkok fue impresionante. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.

We enjoyed it a lot, with a couple of small niggles. The guide leaned on a script quite a bit, but explained things well. Bangkok Lisbon has a very special atmosphere. We would have liked more variety in the main course. There is room to improve, but no regrets.

Contratamos esto casi sin expectativas y terminó siendo lo más lindo del viaje. El transporte en vehículo con aire acondicionado estuvo a la altura. Si están por Montevideo, no se lo pierdan.
