Ayutthaya Funky Frogy Tuk Tuk Experience With Famous Temple

Once the former capital of Thailand, also known as the Kingdom of Siam, from 1350 to 1767, Ayutthaya suffered significant destruction at the hands of the Burmese. It is now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, showcasing well-preserved temples, monasteries, palace remnants, and decapitated Buddhist statues.

Tours depart every hour from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm daily from Ayutthaya.

For tours originating in Ayutthaya:

Complimentary door-to-door pick-up by Tuk Tuk is provided for the CITY CENTER AYUTTHAYA DISTRICT AREA (within a 3 KM radius).

The country's most captivating historical sites include the renowned Buddhist temple, Wat Mahathat.

Wat Mahathat, constructed in the 13th century, stands as one of Ayutthaya's oldest and most revered temples. Renowned for housing the sacred relic of the Buddha, it holds immense significance in the region's history.

Wat Chaiwatthanaram stands out as one of Ayutthaya's most iconic and meticulously preserved temples, celebrated for its stunning Khmer-style architecture and picturesque riverside setting. It's a popular destination for visitors seeking the late afternoon and sunset views. During this time, locals dressed in traditional attire gather to offer prayers, enhancing the ambiance of the evening. Keep an eye out for bats inside the buildings as they depart from their resting spots at sunset, adding to the unique experience. While one of the stupas is currently undergoing restoration, it doesn't detract from the breathtaking sunset vista.

Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon stands as one of Ayutthaya's most significant temples, boasting a rich and storied past. Unlike numerous other ancient sites in Ayutthaya, this temple remains active, serving as a residence for monks. Thai locals frequent Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon not only to show reverence to the Buddha but also to honor one of Thailand's revered monarchs, King Naresuan the Great.

The unique pagodas of Wat Phra Si Sanphet rank among the most renowned landmarks in Ayutthaya. Similar to the iconic Buddha head entwined in tree roots at the nearby Wat Phra Mahathat, images of this historic temple grace the fronts of numerous postcards and travel books available in Ayutthaya.

Despite not being as widely recognized as other historic sites in Ayutthaya, Wat Lokaya Sutha (also spelled as Wat Lokayasutharam) still captivates visitors with its impressive presence. The temple is renowned for its most remarkable feature: a massive reclining Buddha image. Measuring 42 meters in length and 8 meters in height, the statue looms over devotees who gather here to make offerings, leaving a lasting impression on all who visit.

Heading to Ayutthaya's Floating Market offers a unique shopping experience, although boat ride fees are separate.

Afterward, enjoy a delicious Thai lunch.

The Ayothaya Floating Market serves as a popular tourist destination, offering a blend of traditional Thai ambiance and scenic views. Here, visitors can sample tasty local food and browse through various souvenir shops.

Established to showcase Thai arts and culture, the market retains the charm of Ayutthayan floating markets, featuring traditional costumes, stunning architecture, and cultural performances. It provides a glimpse into Thailand's rich heritage and the simple lifestyle of its people.

After your exploration and lunch, we'll head to the Wat Chaiwatthanaram pier for a picturesque sunset boat ride. It's an opportunity to witness Ayutthaya's distinctive beauty as the sun sets.

As the tour comes to an end, we'll provide transportation back to your hotel, whether it's in Ayutthaya or Bangkok.
