For first time visitors to Thailand, we have crafted this unique city break to show you the best of the Bangkok’s culture and history. With its gleaming skyscrapers and historic buildings, the city is full of contrasts and our carefully selected excursions highlight the best of both old and new- the perfect introduction for a Thailand tour.

Your Bangkok Thailand tour starts with a morning visit to one of the country’s most revered temples, Wat Po. Arriving early, we take you to a small hall nestled in the back of the temple grounds where you will witness the daily chanting ritual of the resident monks. This solemn ceremony is deeply ingrained in Thai culture and often not seen by tourists.

Continue to the Grand Palace, an integral stop on any Thailand tour, to explore the vast grounds and learn about the Royal Family. We take you off the beaten track with a boat ride through hidden canals, lined with teak houses and lush gardens. Stop to visit canal-side markets and ancient temples and enjoy a coconut drink with the locals.

We offer a selection of unique excursions on the third day of this Thailand tour for you to indulge your particular interests. A tour of Bangkok’s fresh markets and street stalls introduces food-lovers to the tastes of this world-renowned cuisine. Or for those seeking a bit more excitement, opt for a cycling tour through the cacophonous Chinatown and old, quiet laneways often overlooked by tourists. Culture-lovers will delight in our guided walk of the city’s diverse, historic neighborhoods which is combined with a visit to the Museum of Siam.

There is also plenty of free time, allowing you to enjoy Bangkok at your own pace. We can further tailor your Thailand tour to suit your needs with dozens of other excursions from which to choose. Carefully researched to show the best of the city, we ensure you get the most out of your visit to the capital.

Whether as a start to a longer Thailand package tour or a short stopover, Exotissimo’s Unseen Bangkok offers a true taste of the country’s history, ancient cultures and modern lifestyles.

Welcome to Bangkok! Upon arrival, you will be greeted by our driver and guide and transfer to your hotel.
