Day 2: Bangkok – Ayutthaya with Elephant Safari (B,L)

Breakfast at hotel and then we will start an amazing tour upcountry to Ayutthaya. This easy day trip gives a superb introduction to the architectural heritage of the ancient capital Ayutthaya. A thriving trade and political capital of Siam for over 400 years, Ayutthaya is filled with palaces, temples and religious monuments of great historical and cultural significance – even in their ruined state. It is fair to say that no study of Thai architecture or art is complete without a trip to this once glorious capital, which gave birth to the unique U-Thong style. The tour begins with a guided stroll around the splendid Bang Pa-In Summer Palace and its landscaped gardens, peppered with curious buildings that blend turn-of-the-century European architectural styles with Thai and Chinese styles. On the way back, we make a stop at an Elephant Camp. Get in touch with these wonderful animals. Despite their size you will easily find out, Elephants are very sensitive, intelligent, clever and careful. You have the chance to ride on an Elephant and also feed them. After this exiting stay we will return back to Bangkok. The rest of this day is free for your own. Overnight in Bangkok

(Please wear proper clothes as you will visit sacred places. Shoes should be easy to put on and take off. Please DON’T wear read clothes, while being together with the Elephants)
