📍 Itinerary
Morning – Wat Bang Kung Temple
Travel from Bangkok to Samut Songkhram and explore one of Thailand’s most unique temples. Encased by the sprawling roots of a banyan tree, Wat Bang Kung feels like a secret hidden from time. Inside, discover beautiful murals from the late Ayutthaya period and the revered golden Nila Manee Buddha statue. Take a short walk along the serene Mae Klong river before continuing your journey.
Midday – Mangrove Cruise & Monkeys
Head to the coastal village of Khlong Khon to visit the Mangrove Forest Conservation Centre. Board a longtail boat for a scenic ride through lush mangroves, keeping your eyes peeled for the playful macaques that roam the riverbanks — and sometimes swim right up to your boat.

End your adventure with a delicious seafood lunch at a local restaurant, served with authentic Thai flavors.
