Having explored the key sights of Bangkok yesterday, today you will head to Ayutthaya with your guide. Once the capital of the Kingdom of Siam, Ayutthaya is now home to atmospheric ruins and ancient temples. Using the area's infamous 'Kermit' tuk-tuk transport, visit the ruins, temples and local quarters to sample the local delicacy of candy floss roti. Then, board a traditional rice barge in the afternoon, for a private lunch whilst cruising along Chaopraya River, taking in the historic scenery while you dine.

Today, you will continue to Kanchanaburi, a journey of approximately two hours. This area is renowned for its time during World War II when the Japanese used Allied POWs to build the Thailand-Burma Railway. You will gain an insight into this history with a private guided tour of the main points of interest: the Thailand-Burma Railway Centre, the infamous Bridge on the River Kwai and Hell Fire Pass. The tour includes a boat journey up the River Kwai and a train journey on the infamous Death Railway. In the evening you can relax in the lovely river setting of your hotel and enjoy the unique experience of staying in your own floating villa.

One of Thailand's oldest national parks, and home to resident elephants and a host of wild flora and fauna.
