6 day Northern Thailand Tour from Bangkok to Chiang Mai

6 day Northern Thailand Tour from Bangkok to Chiang Mai

For those with more time up their sleeve this comprehensive 6-day tour from Bangkok to the northern provinces of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai offers a superb itinerary covering the major tourist icons and attractions of central and northern Thailand.

Beginning in Thailand's bustling capital city of Bangkok the tour will first take in the ancient capitals of Siam - Ayuthaya, Lopburi (the former summer capital) as well as Sukhothai - before driving further north into the dense, green hills surrounding Chiang Rai. From Chiang Rai you will venture further into the hills to visit the local hill tribes of Akha and Yao. The culture and lifestyle of the hill tribe villagers is quite different from Thai people living in urban areas, including Chiang Rai, and, quite simply, this portion of the tour is a very unique experience. However your adventure is just beginning.

You will then continue to Mae Sai near the Burma border where, if the border guards are in a good mood on the day, there is a small opportunity to cross the border into Burma. From Mae Sai you will enter the Golden Triangle for possible views over Burma, Laos, Thailand and the Mekong River before making your way down to the northern capital of Chiang Mai, where you can go shopping for souvenirs and visit an elephant camp.

See below for full itinerary details.

Bangkok Temples Tour including reclining Buddha at Wat Pho

Bangkok Temples Tour including reclining Buddha at Wat Pho

Thailand is predominantly a Buddhist country with around 95% of Thai's practicing the Theravada discipline of Buddhism. As you wander the streets of Bangkok it is not unusual to see monks walking along the road and it should come as no surprise as Thailand has over 26,000 wat's (the local name for temple).

On this half-day guided tour you will visit three of the most famous wat's in Bangkok - Wat Traimit, Wat Pho and Wat Benchamabophit. A Wat is a Buddhist building where both men and women can be ordained as monks or nuns.

Wat Traimit is also known as the temple of the Golden Buddha. The 3 meter tall statue is made from solid gold and weighs 5.5 tons and is a fine example of Sukhothai style art. You will then pass through Chinatown on your way to Wat Pho, the temple of the reclining Buddha. At 46 meters in length and 15 meters high the Buddha is the largest in Bangkok and illustrates the passing of the Buddha into nirvana. Your last stop is at Wat Benchamabophit, or the marble temple. This magnificent monastery was built out of white Italian marble from Carrara in the late 19th century.

Note: Wat Trimit will be closed for renovations from September 9 - December 9, 2008. Wat Trimit will be replaced with a visit to Suthat Thepwararam during this time.

Wat Suthat Thepwararam was founded at the centre of Rattanakosin island and is one of Thailand’s six most important temple. Construction was according to the Treatise on warfare. King Rama the 1st wished to make it the central temple of Bangkok and building started in 1807. Construction was completed according to plan in the reign of King Rama VII. Good planning from the beginning earned it praise as “the most finely proportioned temple”.

Chao Phraya River and Bangkok Waterways Cruise including Wat Arun

Chao Phraya River and Bangkok Waterways Cruise including Wat Arun

Cruise by a motorized boat along the Chao Phraya River and canals on the West side of Bangkok to experience the life along the river and canals. This is an intriguing area of Bangkok, especially the Orchid area, that few ever see.

Your cruise along Bangkok's Chao Phraya river will stop at the Temple of Dawn, or Wat Arun, which is one of the city's most famous landmarks. Located on the west bank of the Chao Phraya river, Wat Arun is among the most famous of the more than 400 Buddhist temples and monasteries in the city. The most attractive structure in this temple is the 260 feet high pagoda, or Phra Prang, which is completely covered with pieces of multi-colored glass and Chinese porcelain. If time permits we will walk to the upper levels where you will take in a panoramic view of the surrounding city.

Cruising on you will stop at the Royal Barge Museum, where nine of the most important barges are housed in this national museum, including Suphannahongsa and Narai Song Suban Rama IX. The tradition of royal barges dates back to Ayutthaya times, when they were used to transport the Kings in various ceremonies and processions. These barges were rebuilt by the early Chakri kings in Bangkok to the original specifications. Most were badly damaged during World War II. However, the present King not only had them all restored to their former glory, but revived the ancient tradition of a water-borne Royal Kathin Procession to present robes to monks at the end of the Buddhist Rains Retreat.
