    Combine two of southeast Asia’s most captivating countries on this unforgettable 10-day adventure to Thailand and Myanmar (formerly known as Burma).

Visit Bangkok’s signature sights — the Grand Palace — and its famous Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun) and the Temple of Emerald Buddha on an afternoon sightseeing tour, including a boat ride on the Chao Phraya River.

After pickup from your Bangkok hotel, travel to the Grand Palace, the landmark that tops Bangkok’s must-see list.  Head inside the 18th-century walled complex, and stroll around the gold-trimmed pavilions, terraces, shrines and courtyards as you learn how, when and why they were built. Cap your visit with a peek inside the palace’s magnificent Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew), home to a 14th-century Buddha statue carved from jade.

Next, ride a boat across the Chao Phraya, Bangkok’s ‘River of Kings’ and visit the stunning Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun). Admire the Khmer-style, porcelain-mosaic covered spires of this riverfront temple as your guide reveals its religious significance and symbolism.

Your tour concludes with a transfer back to your hotel.
