Description

Looking for a private driver who can take you around? Begin your journey with a peaceful morning at the Red Lotus Floating Market. Glide through a sea of blooming pink lotus flowers on a traditional boat. Capture stunning aerial photos via drone (optional) and soak in the tranquil countryside atmosphere. Explore local stalls and taste the rare Thai dessert “Miang Kham Kleb Bua,” a delicacy wrapped in lotus petals that captures the flavors of Thai tradition. In the afternoon, travel to the UNESCO-listed Ayutthaya Historical Park, the former royal capital of Siam. Your first stop is Wat Lokayasutha, home to a massive 42-meter-long Reclining Buddha resting serenely in open air. Continue to the iconic Wat Mahathat, where the revered Buddha head entwined in tree roots awaits — a powerful image symbolizing nature and devotion. Wander the ruins of this once-vast temple complex and imagine its ancient glory. Next, ascend the steep staircase of Wat Rachaburana, known for its hidden crypt and intricate stucco work, offering both beauty and mystery. Finally, stand in awe at Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, Ayutthaya’s grandest temple, renowned for its three towering chedis — once part of the royal palace grounds.
