Itinerary
Bangkok by day can be hot and sweaty, so why not wait until nighttime falls to explore the city? As the crowds disperse, you’ll get a new view of the Thai capital that many visitors miss. With an action-packed itinerary in store, you’ll start with a leisurely stroll along Maha Rat Road. Learn about the story of Rattanakosin Island and glimpse The Grand Palace from the outside.
Next, you’ll visit one of Bangkok’s best-loved attractions Wat Pho, which is home to the magnificent reclining Buddha and a serene ambiance that contrasts with the city's nocturnal buzz.
After marveling at the gleaming Buddha, board a ferry and cross the river to head to Wat Arun. This iconic riverside temple, adorned with intricate porcelain and seashell mosaics, stands as a testament to Thailand's rich history and spirituality, offering a tranquil contrast to the city's bustling nightlife.
Head back via ferry and take a tuk-tuk ride to experience the vibrant atmosphere in Chinatown. Wander along Yaowarat Road, taking in the buzzing streets, numerous street food stalls, local eateries, and more.
For the final treat of the tour, we will ride a tuktuk and go to Bangkok Chinatown. This area is famous for its bustling atmosphere and foodie haunts. Feel free to grab a bite to eat or simply explore the area.

Lots of walking. You learn a lot about the temples. When in China Town, carry a small bag in front of you. So many people moving around you need to protect your items. Eddy was great. Very knowledgeable.
Enjoyed the small group, only 6 of us. Loved Wat Pho and Wat Arun. The reclining Buddha was very impressive. Beer, the guide was good, took lots of photos for us and assisted in getting a taxi for us from Chinatown.
It is so beautiful to see the temples when the sun is setting. It is also good to visit when the heat cools down!!
Our guide Bond was very knowledgeable, easygoing and friendly!! She explained the history, Thai culture and we learned a lot from her. The Wat Arun in the early evening was so beautiful. It is good escaping from the heat. The great tour;)
This is a tour you could do yourself without a guide. It is very easy to get yourself to Wat Arun and then to Wat Pho directly across the river. Then take a tuk tuk to Chinatown. Yes, you will forgo a guide’s narration, but our guide’s spoken English was only occasionally decipherable and it was delivered with the monotone intonation of monks chanting. We cut our tour two hours short because by the time we got to Chinatown, the guide simply walked us down the stalls pointing out fish balls wherever she saw them.
Very kind tour guide and extremely dedicated. It was truly a great and informative evening. The tour was also very well planned and delivered on all the promises described in the information.
We went here for our family reunion with my cousins and we had such a great time! Our guide Fern, was incredibly hospitable which something that’s quite rare among guides and we truly enjoyed his company. We spent most of the time sightseeing and eating our hearts out in Chinatown. The itinerary was the best, well-organized from start to finish. One tip! Bring a portable fan, because it can still get quite hot even in the afternoon and evening. Overall, it was an amazing way to hang out, laugh, and enjoy the nightlife with my cousins!
Fantastic and interesting tour with Pop! Very beautiful sights and nice people. Gave us new insights and good laughs, loved it!
We were so grateful to our guide who really accommodated us! Would recommend this tour if you are in Bangkok!
Pop was an amazing guide and made the entire experience unforgettable. From the initial communication with detailed instructions, complete with photos of where we were to meet, Pop exceeded our expectations. Pop provided detailed descriptions of each temple and his knowledge of Thai military history, along with his sense of humor, made the entire experience a true bargain. After the temple visits, Pop arranged the tuk-tuk ride that was both informative and thrilling. Pop walked with us through Chinatown and his guidance proved invaluable. We selected an amazing seafood restaurant and Pop handled all the translations and relieved any anxiety we had about not speaking the Thai language. Words cannot express how happy we are that we decided to book this tour. Even our last minute reservations were handled with true professionalism and we couldn't ask for a better guide. I am recommending this tour to all my friends who are planning visits to Bangkok.
Thank you to Pop, our amazing and brilliant tour guide. He was thoughtful, organized, brilliant, and so funny! He knew exactly the best spots to get the best photos, the best places to go, and had the best stories. Would recommend trying to find Pop in your next tour if you can!
I had visited these sites several years ago during the daytime and while nice, I found the heat to be too unbearable. So I decided to give this one a shot and it did not disappoint. These temples at night are like a completely different landmark. Would recommend to those who have previously visited these areas, if only for the views!
Description doesn't clearly note that the grand Palace is closed each day at 1530, so this night tour only shows you the location of the palace to view externally. What's the point? Also admission into the temple of the dawn is extra. While reclining Buddha is spectacular, visiting the grand Palace, reclining Buddha and temple of dawn is quite easily done on your own. Value of guided component is quite minimal and not worth it.
Jacky was our tour guide and he was great! Knew so much about Thailand culture (the temples) and also about the royal family
So glad we booked this tour. We saw the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, the beautiful flower market, had a ferry trip over the river and a tuk-tuk ride. Ohm was an excellent guide and had lots of knowledge about the places we visited. The tour ended with a trip to amazing Chinatown, where Ohm showed us a great place for food and we enjoyed noodle soup. Thoroughly recommend this tour.
We had Chai as a tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, polite and full of energy! Very caring and answered all questions. A lovely person. We got to see so many sights and was well looked after. Had a nice group as well
Friendly helpful good englih
It is a small tour in which you visit two of the most iconic temples of the city, and then you are taken for a walk in Chinatown in Tula Tula, a fun and interesting experience
Todo muy rápido con muy poca explicación y nada de magia….si bien la comunicación previa con la Guia fue buena el tour no tuvo nada de encanto, fue sólo un trámite
If you are looking to see the temples, and while dining something in Chinatown, do not do the canelo and do this tour, otherwise you do not know a quarter of what is going on around you, I went with Dao, who kept the smile despite spending four hours giving him the turra about monks, Buddhism and any nonsense about Thailand...
Wir hatten mit Jacky einen sehr netten Tourguide, der uns alle unsere Fragen beantworten konnte und uns viel gezeigt hat. Die verschiedenen Sehenswürdigkeiten waren beeindruckend. Schade fanden wir dass wir nicht in den Grand Palace und nicht direkt zum Wat Arun konnten, da beides schon geschlossen war. Das wurde in der Beschreibung der Tour nicht wirklich erwähnt. Schade, leider ging ea für uns einen Tag später weiter Richtung Süden, sodass wir vom Grand Palace jetzt nur die Außenmauer gesehen haben.
