A change of pace between city and coast

Explore Bangkok’s temples and riverside, with dinner aboard a river cruise, before travelling by private car to Pattaya. Visit the Sanctuary of Truth, choose a sea excursion and keep a day open for yourself.

The six-day journey begins in Bangkok and gives the coast its own space rather than treating it as a brief detour. Sightseeing by car, a dinner cruise, an island choice and free time each have their place.

Choose your Bangkok route

Day 2 provides a 12-hour car-service window. The Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, Wat Arun, ICONSIAM and Wat Paknam are possible choices. Agree a route that suits your interests.

Riverfront scenes, architecture and city streets offer different perspectives. Confirm stops, admissions, guiding and sequence individually; the image selection is not an all-inclusive itinerary.

Dinner on the river

The Day 2 dinner cruise gives Bangkok a different perspective, with the river and its banks forming the setting for the meal. The precise route and views are not guaranteed.

Royal Princess is a reference option for the dinner cruise. The vessel, time, pier, seating and menu will be confirmed before booking. A private charter, a particular deck or a view-facing seat is not guaranteed.

More than the beach

The Sanctuary of Truth is a confirmed itinerary stop on the day you travel from Bangkok to Pattaya. Its timber structure and carved details bring a different focus to the coastal stay.

Exterior and interior photographs do not establish special access, a workshop, private guiding or a particular admission entitlement. Confirm ticket type and visitor requirements. Pattaya’s viewpoint is a route candidate, with the actual stop to be agreed.

One sea excursion, three directions

Day 4 offers a choice among Koh Larn, Koh Samet and a three-island excursion. Transport arrangements, pace and available activities need to be checked for the selected route.

This day uses shared transfers and a shared boat, not a private charter. Koh Samet and Koh Larn images represent separate alternatives, not consecutive guaranteed stops. Equipment visible in a photograph does not establish included rental or activity fees.

THE JOURNEY

The days, at your pace.

01

Day 1 | Arrive in Bangkok

Arrive in Bangkok and transfer to the hotel. Settle in before deciding whether arrival time leaves room for an independent walk or meal.

Check arrival-transfer arrangements for Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang airport; the booking will specify your airport, flight and coverage. If time allows after arrival, Chinatown offers inspiration for independent dining, with meals and transport arranged separately.

02

Day 2 | Bangkok by car, dinner afloat

Use the 12-hour service window for the agreed Bangkok route and dinner cruise. Decide which places matter most before settling the order and time at each stop, rather than treating every candidate as compulsory.

Confirm tickets, interpretation, cruise connections and meal details in the final proposal. A car booking does not automatically provide professional guiding at every attraction.

03

Day 3 | Bangkok to Pattaya, via the Sanctuary of Truth

A 10-hour service window covers the transfer from Bangkok to Pattaya and the agreed sightseeing, with the Sanctuary of Truth as a highlight. Settle into Pattaya for the coastal part of the journey.

Discuss the viewpoint or other stops according to your interests. The final route will be confirmed together with hotel location, baggage and stops along the way.

Day 5 | Pattaya at your own pace

There is no fixed sightseeing today. Stay at the hotel, take an independent coastal walk or choose somewhere you would like to explore.

Day 6 | Airport transfer from Pattaya

Transfer from Pattaya to Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang airport for your confirmed flight. Check the airport, departure time and transfer coverage in advance.

International flights are quoted separately. Airport transport and airfare are distinct items to confirm.

STAYS & DINING

Five nights across two destinations

The journey lasts six days and five nights, beginning in Bangkok and continuing to Pattaya on Day 3. The final accommodation schedule should identify every night and confirm the allocation between destinations.

Hotel names, room and bed types, breakfast and occupancy are not locked. No specific brand, star rating, sea view or private beach is promised. Coastal photography shows the destination, not the booked hotel.

A river dinner, with other meals to confirm

A dinner cruise is planned for Day 2, with the vessel, menu and dining scope confirmed before booking. Any other included lunches and dinners will be itemised in the final quotation.

Hotel breakfasts, sea-excursion meals and free-day dining should be itemised in the quotation. Street-food imagery is inspiration for independent dining, not a restaurant booking or included purchase.

THE DETAILS, CLEARLY

Private-car days and shared excursions

Day 2 has a 12-hour service window and Day 3 a 10-hour window. Day 4 explicitly uses shared transfers and a shared boat; free time does not automatically include a car. Confirm airport-transfer coverage, vehicles and baggage capacity for the booking.

Languages for transfers, land sightseeing and onboard services, along with professional guiding at attractions, will be confirmed separately. If you require Chinese-speaking accompaniment throughout or another specific language, mention this in your enquiry.

Choose the route before adding more

Choose a suitable Bangkok route and one sea-excursion direction. If you would like to visit Nong Nooch or add another experience on the free day, ask about feasibility and costs separately.

Share your preferences before adding an experience, so that time and cost can be checked. Discuss whether you would like to keep the full free day when confirming the proposal.

For a city-and-coast holiday

A useful starting point for travellers combining Bangkok and Pattaya who want help connecting the two destinations and are comfortable with a shared sea-excursion day. The Sanctuary of Truth and river dinner add variety beyond the beach.

If every segment must be exclusive, or you require a private boat or professional guide throughout, explain this in your enquiry so a different proposal can be checked.

Your itinerary and your quotation

This page describes the shape of the journey, rather than a final list of paid inclusions. Your quotation should identify accommodation, scheduled transport, airport transfers, the selected sea excursion and admission tickets separately. A photograph or a named place does not establish that every associated service is included.

International flights are quoted separately. Personal shopping, additional food and drink, chargeable hotel services, and transport or experiences added during free time should not be treated as included. Confirm insurance, entry-document assistance, child rates, extra beds, baggage and gratuity arrangements before booking.

Before you travel

Sea excursions depend on weather, sea conditions and operating arrangements. Confirm the actual route, embarkation points, stops, activities and participation limits in your itinerary. Boats, beach facilities and water activities shown in photographs are not service guarantees.

Share party size, children’s ages, baggage requirements and accessibility needs so that vehicles, rooms and activity conditions can be checked. Follow local dress and visitor rules at religious sites. During free time, arrange transport and meals at your own pace.

Prices, accommodation and transport availability, operating dates, payment terms and cancellation rules must be checked for your travel dates. This page does not promise live inventory or guaranteed availability.

Tell us how you would like to travel

Share your travel dates, party size, children’s ages, departure city, hotel preferences and budget, along with whether you would rather spend more time by the sea, exploring the city or heading offshore. These details allow the route choices, rooms, transport and costs to be checked for your trip.

Enquire about an itinerary and quotation. International flights are quoted separately; the confirmed proposal determines the final arrangements.
