Itinerary

Is this tour for you?

This is for people who want a nice day without 4 hours in a bus. Pattaya is about 30 to 40 minutes from the port. It is not Bangkok, we will not pretend it is. But the Sanctuary of Truth is really something.

Good for: shorter port calls, people who have seen Bangkok, older guests.
Not good for: people who must see the Grand Palace. For that, take our Bangkok shore excursion.

The day
