Bangkok starter pack - local temples

Easy Going Bangkok: your own way

Almost all of our Thailand trips begin in Bangkok, a truly Asian city where everything and everyone rubs shoulders- temples, monks, rickshaws, wildlife, markets, and traffic.

To make the most of Bangkok it is essential to stay in a central location. Thailand Travel Plan offers a number of comfortable hotels chosen for a combination of their location and their facilities. The prices stated are per person based on two people sharing a room and include breakfast. Pre-booking your arrival transfer and hotel ensures that you'll be met by a friendly face at the airport and whisked away to your accommodation, getting your trip off to a smooth start.

Day 1: Bangkok Arrival

You will probably arrive in Thailand feeling a little like a bedraggled cat. Your body will be stiff from air travel and you'll be feeling wiped out by jetlag. It will also take you a while to acclimatise to the heat and humidity in Bangkok. For these reasons, we suggest that you give yourselves a break with our Bangkok Starter Pack. This includes an airport transfer and two nights in a comfortable, central Bangkok hotel. Breakfast is included. In other words, a Starter Pack will ensure that you have a no-hassle arrival.

You'll be collected from the airport arrivals gate and taken directly to your Bangkok hotel. Photographs at the bottom of the page indicate the comfort level of our chosen hotels. If you would like to upgrade, please feel free to ask about alternatives. We will be more than happy to help.

You'll stay in a simple lodge in the centre of town, within easy walking distance Khao San Road. The accommodation is comfortable yet simple. All of the rooms are fully-equipped with air conditioning. The most important sites can be easily reached by taxi or express river boat. Breakfast is of course included. Please note that there is no swimming pool at this hotel.

For approx £32 extra per person, you can stay in a wonderful boutique Bangkok hotel, only 5 minutes from Khao San Road, with the additional bonus of a rooftop swimming pool. Those looking for a touch of true class can opt one of our even more luxurious hotels, which are available on request. Just let us know your preferences when you submit your quote request form.

Day 2: Free time

Today is an entirely free day, so you can explore the city at your own pace. Most visitors head for the Grand Palace, the Royal Palace of King Bhumipol, and Wat Phra Kaew, Thailand's most important temple. Wat Po, with its enormous Reclining Buddha, is also within walking distance from your hotel, as is the famous School of Massage. Why not drop in for a herbal massage if you're still feeling stiff from the flight? From here it is easy to take a water taxi to Wat Arun, an architecturally impressive temple on the Chao Phraya River. In short, there is plenty to keep you occupied. Bangkok is many things, but it certainly isn't boring.
