Bangkok Tours & Holidays

Thailand’s glittering capital is a heady mix of ancient golden palaces, towering high-rise developments, colourful floating markets and everything else in between.

Bangkok is one of Southeast Asia’s most seductive cities, a dazzling mix of the ancient and modern. Known as the ‘Big Mango’ – the tropical equivalent of New York – Bangkok is a surprisingly flat, sprawling urban mass, with the snaking Chao Phraya River passing through its centre, feeding a sweeping network of canals, or klongs.

Most Bangkok tours will invariably focus on the city’s many glittering temples and palaces, and rightly so. Bangkok is home to many hundreds of temples, with the iconic Wat Arun and its Khmer-style spire, together with the opulent Temple of the Emerald Buddha among the most famous. Don’t miss the sumptuous Rattanakosin Royal District, home to the lavish Grand Palace and the sacred Wat Phra Kaew temple. Nearby is the Wat Pho temple, with its enormous reclining golden Buddha. Away from the temples and palaces, you'll find plenty of other things to see and do, from catching a traditional Thai dance performance to exploring the city's bustling Chinatown.
