28 kms of easy cycling to explore local villages around Ayutthaya, visit the former Summer Palace at Bang Pa-In and then take a long-tail boat ride on the river.
An alternative approach to Bang Pa-in, the Summer Palace of Thai kings over the centuries.
We will travel by bicycle from Ayutthaya on quiet village roads alongside the historic Chao Phraya River, witnessing the cultural diversity of this region as we stop in local villages along the way to learn about the lives and day-to-day activities of the Thai people.
We start our journey at 09.00 in Ayutthaya, the former capital of Thailand and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with a visit to the Ayutthaya Historical Study Centre for an overview of the relationship between Ayutthaya and Europeans over the centuries.
Afterwards set off to cycle to Bang Pa-in Summer Palace stopping enroute to visit Wat Chaiwattanaram and Ayutthaya’s Portuguese Settlement and experience an up-close meeting with the local people around Ayutthaya as we visit their villages and join in their day-to-day activities.
Before reaching Bang Pa-In and the Summer Palace, we will enjoy a simple but delicious Thai lunch, and then take a guided tour around the Summer Palace and explore the many spectacular royal mansions set in picturesque landscaped gardens.
After the tour we will board a long-tail boat for the journey back to Ayutthaya, while you enjoy the fascinating sights of life along the banks of the Chao Phraya River.
