Itinerary
Travel from Bangkok in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to your first stop in Ayutthaya, Wat Lokayasutha. This incredible temple is known for its giant reclining Buddha image, astoundingly one of the few structures left intact here.
Your next stop is Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, being part of the royal palace complex this is where royalty performed rituals. It is considered the most important temple of Ayutthaya.
Then, visit Wat Mahathat Ayutthaya. One of the oldest and most significant temples in the history of Ayutthaya, it once housed the Buddha's holy relic. Admire the famous Buddha head entwined within the roots of a Bodhi tree.
Last but not least, finish your trip at the grand, riverside Wat Chaiwattanaram. Marvel at its compelling architectural style, influenced by the Angkor Wat complex in Cambodia, as you wander around the monumental grounds.

Thorough trip through Ayutthaya
A really thorough walk through some of the historic site at Ayutthaya. Our guide, Boy, was excellent, imparting so much information that my brain was full by the end. Great lunch, and excellently run day - highly recommend.
