Detailed itinerary

1

08:00 Hours: Meet us at the meeting point in the lobby of Hotel Dusit Thani Pattaya. Our Sun Leisure World staff will meet you at the hotel lobby, or you can visit our office located just beside the restaurant.

2

9:45 AM: We will pass by this famous nightlife center while it's quiet in the morning. Check out the street during the morning - please note that it's just a passing glance.

3

10:00 Hours: The most famous viewpoint in Pattaya is here. If you're in Pattaya, this spot is a must to capture. The biggest Pattaya signage is worth capturing, and it's important to note that this is also the pier for the Coral Island.

4

10:00 Hours: Pattaya Viewpoint (Khao Pattaya View Point) on Pratumnak Hill is the best viewpoint in the region and the place to visit, day or night, to get that classic shot of Pattaya’s sweeping, crescent bay. Be warned, though, this is anything but an insider’s tip, so expect to share your view with an almost ceaseless conveyor-belt of package tours and the local traders who follow them, touting cheap souvenirs and expensive refreshments. This might sound off-putting, but the reality is tours will usually stop for 10 to 15 minutes, and once they have been called back to the bus, the viewpoint becomes quiet and peaceful – perfect for enjoying the stunning scenery. We will go to Big Buddha and Viewpoint in a 15-minute time.

5

10:30 Hours: Big Buddha Hill or Wat Phra Yai offers a view of the biggest Buddha image in Chonburi province, visible from far away as you approach the hill. The Buddha image is situated on top of Pratamnak Hill, just south of the city of Pattaya. Driving up the road to the top of the hill will provide you with some very nice views of the Pattaya bay area.

6

11:30 Hours: Khao Chi Chan, also known as Buddha Mountain, is a remarkable natural and cultural attraction located in the vicinity of Pattaya, Thailand. This awe-inspiring landmark features a massive Buddha image carved into the face of a limestone hill, leaving visitors in awe. The image on Khao Chi Chan is an intricate depiction of Lord Buddha, measuring an impressive 109 meters in height and 70 meters in width. The carving is meticulously crafted and filled with intricate details, creating a mesmerizing sight that showcases the artistic skills of Thai craftsmen. The surrounding area of Khao Chi Chan offers a tranquil and serene atmosphere, with beautifully landscaped gardens, reflecting pools, and statues.
