Begin your sightseeing in Bangkok with Grand Palace & Wat Po (Duration is from 08:00-12:00hrs)
The Grand Palace is the “must see” attraction in Bangkok. It is an architectural wonder of golden stupas, walls and pillars encrusted in shining and colourful mosaics. Previously the residence of past Kings of Thailand, you will see palaces once used for different occasions; the Reception Hall, the Coronation Hall, the Throne Hall, the Royal Guest House and Wat Phra Kaew. The architecture is predominantly Thai, though there are some European influences. The palace served as the official residence of kings of Thailand from the 18th to the mid-20th century. The most famous building within the palace grounds is Wat Phra Kaew and this is regarded as the most sacred Buddhist temple in Thailand. Continue to Wat Po, with its massive reclining Buddha.
Lunch will be provided at Sala Rattanakosin Restaurant.
Afterward your Bangkok sightseeing is our Thonburi Klong (Duration is 13:00-16:30hrs)
One of the best ways to explore Bangkok is by boat. A cruise along the Chao Phraya River and the canals of Thonburi on the east side of the river reveals a scene that offers a stark contrast to the frenzied activity
of the modern metropolis of Bangkok. The city’s network of canals earned Bangkok the title of “Venice of the East” we travel along these waterways by long-tail speed boat to see family homes and temples. On the return journey, we stop at the Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun) whose towering spire has become an iconic symbol of Bangkok. There will be ample opportunities to photograph the magnificent multi-coloured porcelain-studded tower of this temple.

Enjoy your half day Damnoen Saduak Floating Market (Duration is from 07:00-12:30hrs).
There are countless floating markets throughout Thailand, but the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is the most famous. Situated 110 km from Bangkok in Ratchaburi province, this market is like a trip back in time to the Siam of old. You will see colourfully clad merchants paddle along congested canals in sturdy canoes laden with fresh fruit, vegetables and other foodstuff to sell to shoppers on the canal banks. There is lots of activity and bargaining is part of the fun of the sale. This buzzing market is at its best in the early morning before the crowds arrive and the heat of the day builds up. After visiting the market, we continue onto Phra Pathom Chedi in Nakorn Pathom, reportedly the largest pagoda in South East Asia. The golden-tiled dome of the Chedi towers almost 116-metres into the air.
Note : There will be possible to take an optional paddle boat (at extra cost).
Return to hotel and spend the rest of your afternoon at leisure.
Later this evening enjoy Bangkok Night Light by Tuk Tuk (Duration is from 19:00-23:00hrs)
The ubiquitous tuk tuk is synonymous with Bangkok, forming a part of everyday life for many of its residents and certainly a mode of transport every visitor must experience at least once. The tuk tuk, named after the sound its two-cycle engine makes, are a fast and efficient way to travel in congested areas where they can weave around stationary cars. Their flashing on-board lights and ornate Thai metalwork also add a sense of excitement. Tour is suitable for a minimum of two and maximum of 10 people – taking guests on an eye-opening tour of Bangkok's famed sights after the sun goes down. Often overlooked at night, the capital's magnificent temples take on a whole new perspective as we approach by moonlight. Also on our agenda are stops at the vibrant flower market that carries on late into the night and the opportunity to visit a selection of scrumptious street-side food stalls. As we will stop to sample of the best food, you will not go hungry so there is no need to eat beforehand.

After your leisurely breakafst (around 10:00hrs), you will be met and transferred overland to Chiang Mai via Wat Rong Khun where popularly known as the "White"Temple”. Wat Rong Khun is a contemporary unconventional Buddhist and Hindu temple in Chiang Rai, designed by Chalermchai Kositpipat and constructed in 1998. This temple is different from any other temple in Thailand, as its ubosot (consecrated assembly hall) is designed in white color with some use of white glass. The white color stands for Lord Buddha’s purity; the white glass stands for Lord Buddha’s wisdom that "shines brightly all over the Earth and the Universe." Each piece of the construction represents religious beliefs. The bridge leading to the temple represents the crossing over from the cycle of rebirth to the Abode of Buddha. The small semicircle before the bridge stands for the human world. The big circle with fangs is the mouth of Rahu, representing impurities in the mind or hell or suffering.
Lunch will be provided at a local restaurant.
Arrive in Chiang Mai, check in and spend the rest of the day at leisure.
