On Day 1 of the Bangkok and Beyond tour, we take you to Bangkok’s most famous site – the Grand Palace, a sprawling complex of buildings including the revered Wat Phra Kaew, aka the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Next, buckle up for a thrilling longtail boat ride through the canals of Thonburi for a glimpse at local river life, then head to Wat Arun – the Temple of the Dawn – or visit Wat Po and the Reclining Buddha.
