Bangkok Full Day Ayuthaya By Cruise Tour

Package Overview

Escape the hustle and bustle of Bangkok to the ancient capital of Ayutthaya is a good choice. Declared as World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1991, Ayutthaya was ruled in the reign of King U Thong. It was until 1767, after over 400 years ruled by 33 kings, the entire capital was invaded and destroyed by the Burmese army. Since then, sites in Ayutthaya became desolate except some remnants survived to showcase the city’s glorious past. Embark on a cruise ship along the Chao Phraya River on this day tour you will be introduced to the city’s rich historical and architectural heritage, starting at Bang Pa-In Summer Palace and temple ruins of the 14th and 16th centuries.

FULL ITINERARY

A full day tour, bringing you to visit the former capital of Thailand, Ayutthaya, situated approximately 75 kilometres north of Bangkok and one of those destinations, you have to see. The mixing of cultures in Ayuthaya began in the mid-16th century when ships from Ayutthaya plied the Asian seas, trading with neighbouring countries. When the Dutch began showing up in the 17th century, Ayuthaya became a port city and trade routes were extended to China, Japan, Indonesia, Portugal, Holland and France and up to the Scandinavian countries later. Although the ancient villages of foreign traders lining the Chao Phraya riverbanks were abandoned when the city was sacked by Burmese troops in 1767, some remnants survive to showcase the cities past glory.

The tour starts at the Summer Palace of the late King Rama V, commonly known as “Bang Pa-In”, which is another touch of beauty. You continue to the magnificent ruins of early splendour that Ayuthaya is famous for all over the world. We will pass or visit all the most impressive ruins of this World Heritage Site for taking sufficient pictures. We will return to Bangkok by cruising down the Chao Phraya River on a comfortable, air-conditioned cruise ship, while enjoying a sumptuous buffet lunch on board. Upon arrival at the disembarkation point in Bangkok in the late afternoon, we transfer you back to your booked hotel.
