Wat Traimit, located in Bangkok’s Chinatown, is famous for housing the world’s largest solid gold Buddha statue, weighing over 5.5 tons. The temple beautifully combines spiritual significance with stunning Thai architecture, making it a must-visit cultural landmark.
Wat Pho (the Temple of the Reclining Buddha), or Wat Phra Chetuphon, is right behind the Temple of the Emerald Buddha – it’s a must-see for any first-time visitor to Bangkok. As one of the largest temple complexes in the city, it’s famed for its giant reclining Buddha that is 46 metres long, covered in gold leaf. This an A World Heritage Site
Wat Arun, locally known as Wat Chaeng, is a landmark temple on the west (Thonburi) bank of the Chao Phraya river. It’s easily one of the most stunning temples in Bangkok, not only because of its riverside location but also because the design is very different from the other temples you can visit in the Thai capital. Wat Arun (nicknamed the 'Temple of Dawn') is partly made up of colourfully decorated spires and stands majestically over the water.

A peaceful and eye opening experience . The temples were absolutely stunning and the guide shared so many interesting stories and facts along the way. Panu the tour guide was very knowledgeable and very accommodating every step of the way. Great way to experience the heart of Thailand. Definitely a must do thing when visiting the city.
The trip was well organised, so interesting and worth every penny. Susan was a great tour guide with so much knowledge and Information on the local area and history
We had an excellent tour with Cindy. She was very informative, very personable and took us around Bangkok to see some fantastic sights (with the assistance of a friendly driver). Definitely a must do tour when visiting the city.
Had a great tour with Pat - he was friendly, informative and great fun! We enjoyed all three temples and Pat went above and beyond to make the trip enjoyable, even taking us to an added stop at the end to get outfits tailored!
Amit and Sophia arranged for us one day private temple tour in Bangkok. It was an amazing experience visiting Emerald, Reclining and Golden Buddha. Sophia was our english speaking guide, and very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the places we visited. She otherwise also took very good care of my family and kids. I would recommend their services to anybody who needs local support and guide.
