      Arrive at Wat Pho (the Temple of the Reclining Buddha) to explore another of Bangkok's magnificent temples.

It’s also well known for its huge Reclining Buddha, at 46 meters (150 feet) long and 15 meters (50 feet) high. A short walk from Wat Pho, you will try a traditional Thai massage. Unlike other massages, the Thai style involves stretching and deep massage. This form of bodywork is usually performed on the floor, and the massage recipient changes into loose, comfortable clothes and lies on a mat or firm mattress on the floor.

    <p>It was HOT!!!!! Tips - dress light, drink lots of water and do the 2 hr full body massage. Our guide was very kind and very informative. This was the best way to see the Grand Palace and get around the large crowded tours. We were so exhausted from the day tour that the night tour was not worth it.</p>

    Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bangkok.

    How much does Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $197 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bangkok usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bangkok is not rushed.

    Is Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bangkok, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bangkok can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bangkok and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bangkok within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Bangkok?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bangkok experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bangkok Backstreets Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Old Siam Bangkok Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Tingly Thai Cooking Class with Morning Market Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Bangkok?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Bangkok?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour?

    +

    Included: Local guide; Dinner; Transport by air-conditioned minivan; and Hotel pickup and drop-off (selected hotels only). Not included: Additional services not mentioned in itinerary; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 59 listed pickup locations in and around Bangkok. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour?

    +

    Is Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Bangkok Old Town: Day and Night Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
