Bangkok Private Custom Tour: Grand Palace, Wat Pho, Wat Arun & Canal

Explore Bangkok with Your Thai Guide on a private 8-hour day tour built around the places you actually want to see. Our licensed English-speaking Thai guide meets you at your hotel, discusses your interests and creates a practical route for the day rather than following a fixed group itinerary.

A classic Bangkok route can include the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, home of the Emerald Buddha, Wat Pho with its 46-meter Reclining Buddha, Wat Arun across the Chao Phraya River, Pak Khlong Talat Flower Market and a long-tail boat ride through the Thonburi canals. Depending on your interests and available time, Khao San Road, Chinatown, Chatuchak Weekend Market, Jim Thompson House and other Bangkok neighborhoods can also be considered.

You can also use your private day for destinations outside central Bangkok. Verified choices include Ayutthaya and Bang Pa-In Summer Palace or the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market area. These are alternative customized routes and are not all visited during the same 8-hour tour.
