: Buddhamonthon
This is an important religious site built by the government and the people to commemorate the 2500th year of the existence of the Buddha. Accessible by Puttha-Monthon lV Road, it occupies a large area with beautiful landscape and contains many interesting structures. A huge standing Buddha image cast in bronze gold measuring 15.8 metres marks the centre of the area. It is surrounded by Four commemorative sites concerning Lord Buddha's birth, enlightenment, the first preaching sermon, and Nirvana. Other interesting places include a Buddhist museum, a hall keeping marble Pali canon and meditation halls.

The museum houses life-like sculptures created by a group of Thai artists. These breathtaking human figures with various characteristics and the replicas of important people are displayed in many sections such as the Great Buddhist Monks, Former Kings of Chakri Dynasty, and One Side of Thai Life.
: Phra Pathom Chedi
On coming toward the city, the first glimpse of the towering Phra Pathom Chedi is overpowering. lt is one of the largest pagodas in the world and in Thailand, by far the most holy of all Buddhist structures. The original pagoda was constructed more than 2,000 years ago in the stupa design of an upside down bowl shape.
: Sanam Chandra Palace
This palace, located 2 kms. west of Phra Pathom Chedi, was constructed by the command of King Rama VI in the year 1907 when he was the Crown Prince. The compound occupies an area of 355 acres and houses a group of throne halls and pavilions with an elegant and unusual mixture of classical French, English Tudor and traditional Thai architecture. Most buildings are now used as government offices. The two buildings opened as attractions are Phra Tamnak Chali Mongkhon At, a Western style building with a statue of Ya-Le - the king's pet dog and Phra Tamnak Mari Ratchabanlang where King Rama VI's personal utensils, royal photographs, and writings are exhibited. Nearby a Thai-style house called Tamnak Thap Khwan once served as King Rama VI's temporary residence.

"Fantastic private trip. Happy to recommend "

"This was my parents’ first trip to Thailand, even though I’ve visited several times before. We had dreamed of seeing the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, and it was even more beautiful than we imagined. I booked the private tour so my elderly parents could enjoy everything at a comfortable pace. The guide was calm, patient, and never rushed us. The van was brand new, spacious, and equipped with umbrellas and a wheelchair (which we used for free!). Booking this kind of private service made everything so much easier for my parents — they felt relaxed the whole time. Thank you to our lovely guide and kind driver for making this such a memorable day!"

"My mom and I had the best day ever with Mr. Rabbit and Mr. Belt. They gave us a first class and memorable experience where we felt very taken care of! Mr. Rabbit is so talented, knowledgeable, warm, and genuine, as well as an amazing photographer. He is truly an exceptional guide and an amazing person; we felt like we were out touring with an old friend! Mr. Belt was a very kind and skilled driver. He always helped us in and out of the van and supplied us with cold drinks and towels throughout the day. If we can someday return to Thailand, we would love to book another tour with them both! "

"I've visited Bangkok multiple times, but this was my first experience on The Opulence Cruise, noticing it was a new addition to the city's attractions. I decided to book a journey and was overall very pleased with the quality of the food and the stunning design of the cruise ship. Booking through Oriental Escape was straightforward and quick. I got an excellent table on the upper deck, which truly enhanced the experience. Highly impressed and would recommend it to anyone looking to explore Bangkok from a unique perspective."

"Was in a bit of a panic the day before arriving by cruise ship to the port for Bangkok when learning how far it was from the city... and not having made arrangements. But noticed this service on orientalescape had good reviews and took the opportunity. It was an excellent service and trustworthy. They responded by email quickly with details of the driver and car and pick-up point, etc. And the driver was contactable immediately upon disembarkation from the ship. It was a flawless transfer. The driver and car were excellent. Would recommend. "
