Explore the archeological ruins of the most magnificent Buddhist temples in Ayutthaya, the country’s former capital and a UNESCO World Heritage site acclaimed for presenting an authentic look at Thailand’s past glory.

Note: this is a small group program with no more than 20 guests

Special Note: Due to the amount of walking on this program, we do not recommend it for anyone who requires use of a wheelchair, walker or cane.

Day 1 – April 4, 2026

After disembarking the ship in Laem Chabang, you will meet the guide and proceed to Ayutthaya, the former capital of Old Siam. The drive will take about two hours, so be sure to eat a hearty meal before taking off.

Strategically positioned on an island between three rivers, the city of Ayutthaya rose to prosperity shortly after being founded in 1350, when the Siamese kingdom flourished through trade between the East and West. It remained one of the world’s most cosmopolitan and commercially important cities until the Burmese destroyed Ayutthaya in the 18th century and forced the residents to move to the new capital of Bangkok.

Even so, the archaeological ruins of its monumental monasteries offer a glimpse into its past splendor and size. UNESCO deemed Ayutthaya a World Heritage site in light of these treasures, the simple grid design of its streets and the city’s extremely advanced hydraulic system of water management.

As you meander through the Ayutthaya Historical Park, you will see an abundance of religious buildings such as Wat Ratchaburana. This Buddhist temple features a magnificent central tower, known as a prang, whose priceless contents were recovered and preserved in a national museum.

Following lunch, you will visit Wat Phanan Cheoeng, a temple located at the confluence of the Chao Phraya and Pa Sak rivers. Its oversized statue of Buddha is one of the oldest and most revered such images of Buddha in Thailand. Behind the temple is a small 18th-century shrine built to honor a Chinese princess with a tragic story.

In the late afternoon, you will arrive at the Kantary Hotel for check in. After a bit of time to freshen up, you will enjoy dinner at the hotel and the remainder of the evening on your own.

DAY 2 – April 5, 2026

Following breakfast and check out from the hotel, you will spend the morning visiting a collection of temples in the countryside beyond Ayutthaya. Each has its own allure.

Wat Yai Chai Mongkon is known for its outdoor reclining Buddha and multi-tiered chedi that held sacred relics associated with Buddha. Wat Chaiwatthanaram was built in 1630 to resemble a renowned Angkor temple in Cambodia, while Wat Phu Khao Thong, whose name translates to the Temple of the Golden Mount, features a stark white chedi. It rises above a flat plain of rice fields.

After lunch at a restaurant, you will transfer back to the port at Laem Chabang and re-embark the ship.

This incredible journey invites guests to reflect on the past as they experience the present opportunities and beauty of today.

Enjoy breakfast at your hotel before setting out. This morning visit Tuol Sleng Museum, originally a local high school which was taken over in 1975 by the Khmer Rouge and converted into “Security Prison 21” (S - 21).

After you have had time to absorb the tragic events, a stop is made at the Russian Market. Named thanks to its popularity with visitors from the former USSR in the 1980s, the Russian Market is probably the city's best source of objects d'art and craft items. Lighten your spirits as you browse the various goods on offer, re-assured that despite the country’s dark history, the good people of Cambodia have persevered.

Your guide will lead you around the market and be on hand to explain some of the more curious items for sale, including wooden and stone carvings, various ritual objects, silverware, and old Indochinese notes and coins.

Next, travel thirty minutes outside of Phnom Penh to the somber 'Killing Fields' of the Khmer Rouge and the mass graves that tells the dark story of Cambodia’s disturbing past.

After lunch at a local restaurant, you will visit The Royal Palace. This structure was constructed earlier this century on the site of the Banteay Kev, a citadel built in 1813. Keen-eyed travelers may spot the design is strongly influenced by The Royal Palace in Bangkok.

Together with your guide, venture inside the Palace's Silver Pagoda and its surrounding compound (the only section that is open to visitors). The Silver Pagoda, also known as Wat Preah Keo, was given its name because of over 5,000 silver tiles (weighing 1kg each) that cover the floor.

Continue your exploration of Phnom Penh at the National Museum of Khmer Art and Archaeology, otherwise known as 'Musée des Beaux-Arts' or 'Musée Albert Sarraut'. This museum is considered one of the finest museums of classical Cambodian art.

This evening enjoy dinner at a local restaurant.

DAY 3 – April 7, 2026

After breakfast and checking out, transfer to the Phnom Penh International Airport for a flight to Siem Reap.

On arrival in Siem Reap you will be met and taken to the Angkor Site to collect your temple passes which are required for touring. Once these have been issued, transfer to your hotel for check-in and a light lunch.

After lunch, venture to the Angkor Wat Temple Complex. You will have approximately 2 hours to explore its archaeological treasures with your guide before returning to your hotel.

Your guide will point out the best spots for taking photos of this massive temple complex as you walk amidst the moss-peppered cobbled pathways, gaze up at the intricately carved tower tops and perhaps climb the steep and narrow temple steps that lead to wide courtyards. Lose yourself in contemplation as you catch the rays of the sun dancing off the bas relief carvings at sunset, the chatter of monkeys reverberating off the temple walls.

This evening dinner is on own.

Day 4 – April 8, 2026

After an early breakfast, check out and transfer to the Siem Reap Airport for a flight to Singapore.

Upon arrival in Hanoi, the cultural heart and capital of Vietnam, embark a scenic three-hour drive to discover a patchwork of rice paddy fields and ethnic communities in the peaceful Mai Chau valley. Here, the hustle and bustle of the city is replaced with meandering country roads that open to picturesque fields and mountains. This is your opportunity to reconnect with the simple life and experience hill tribe culture in the rolling hills of northern Vietnam.

Enjoy lunch at a local house in the village before check-in to your hotel around midday. Mai Chau is home to several ethnic communities including the Dzao, Muong and Thai tribes, and this afternoon you can discover some of their diverse traditions and ways of life. Visit the villages of Na Phon and Na Meo and stop to chat with locals to learn a bit about their lifestyle and how little has changed over the years.

Your stay for two nights is at Mai Chau Ecolodge which set into a flower-lined hill in the village of Na Phon. Enjoy beautiful panoramas of Mai Chau’s seemingly endless rows of rice paddies, forests and tree-topped mountains.

Mai Chau Ecolodge’s philosophy and mission are:

•To provide closeness to nature through location and use of sustainable materials throughout the lodge;

•Environmental protection from use of materials from sustainable sources as well as using clean energy;

•Cultural preservation – all staff are employed from local villages and wear the uniform of the minority group to which they belong and in the evening Panorama Bar becomes a stage for beautiful tribal customs through dance and music;

•Responsible tourism with a commitment to Mai Chau and its inhabitants

DAY 2 – April 1, 2026

Drive about one and a half hours from Mai Chau to explore Pu Luong, a nature reserve filled with limestone mountains, rice terraces and ethnic villages.

Walk to a suspension bridge that crosses the Cham River and continue along the waterway lined with rustic water wheels. This simple, age-old technology offers an effective way of diverting river water into bamboo aqueducts. Stop at a local fisherman’s house before setting off on a river rafting adventure. Learn how to paddle and steer while drifting down the river on the handcrafted raft and enjoy the natural scenery along the way.

After about an hour on the raft, you arrive at Tan Lap Bridge where your driver is waiting to meet you. Return to Pu Luong Retreat and savor idyllic views of mountains and rice terraces with your Vietnamese set lunch. Return to your hotel in Mai Chau in the afternoon and enjoy the remainder of the day at leisure.

DAY 3 – April 2, 2026

After a leisurely morning with breakfast at your lodge, check out and depart Mai Chau. On the way back to Hanoi, stop by Van village to explore a private collection of tribal antiques, hunting equipment, musical instruments, and jewellery. The journey to Hanoi takes approximately three hours.
