This accessible Bangkok tour is designed for all guests, including those using a wheelchair. Discover the vibrant heart of Thailand — Bangkok. Travel from Laem Chabang through scenic landscapes to explore the city's cultural and spiritual highlights at a relaxed pace.
Visit the Grand Palace — once the royal residence with a complex showcasing golden spires, intricate artwork, and deep spiritual significance. Its Temple of the Emerald Buddha is Thailand's most iconic and sacred site. Continue to Wat Trimit, whose 5.5-ton solid gold statue remained hidden beneath plaster for centuries before its remarkable discovery. Today, it stands as a striking symbol of Thai history and spirituality.
Wrap up your day at world-class ICONSIAM riverside mall, offering local cuisine, shopping, and cultural experiences. Lunch is included, and you are welcome to purchase additional snacks or souvenirs.
After a fulfilling day, relax on the drive back to Laem Chabang and the ship.
