  Embark on a full-day guided tour to familiarize yourself with Bangkok's notable sights using a mix of public transport.

While roaming around the iconic Grand Palace, admire the glittering halls, pavilions, and courtyards of the royal Siamese court. At the nearby Wat Pho, get ready to be wowed by a 45-meter-long gold-gilded reclining Buddha.

• Day 4: Khao Sok National Park

  Wake up to the gentle sound of nature. After breakfast, check out the hotel and start your epic adventure with a long-tailed boat ride across the relatively untouched Cheow Larn Lake. Here, you will find yourself surrounded by calm waters, limestone cliffs, and dense rainforests. While exploring Khao Sam Klur, take in every bit of the karst landscape, have your camera ready to capture the beauty, and take a dip in the lake - if you like.

  At noon, arrive at your raft house for lunch and settle into your room. The afternoon continues with a guided hike through the lush jungle, searching for rare and exotic plants and animals.
