Overview

To truly experience a city, you must deep dive into its culture, and there's no better cultural tradition to explore in Bangkok than through Buddhism and its monks.

On this private tour, get a cultural awakening as you learn more about Buddhism and the local monks and why it's such a unique part of the city's character. Learn from its history to the present influence that still lingers in Bangkok as you visit the Golden Mount, Loha Prasat and more. Thanks to this cultural experience, you'll be able to see Bangkok from a different perspective - the way the locals live it every day!
