Board a wooden barge and cruise along Ta Chin River to the Rose Garden Aprime Resort. Join a Thai cooking class (a maximum of 10 persons can join the class at one time). You will then taste your creations for lunch and also receive an apron as a souvenir.

Breakfast at hotel. Visit the Phra Pathom Chedi, one of the largest stupas in the world, then continue to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. The district consists of a large network of canals and women gather each morning on the klongs to sell their wares from small hand-rowed boats. Drive to Kanchanaburi and visit the Burma-Thailand Railway Museum and famous Bridge over the River Kwai. Then board the local train for the exciting ride on the Death Railway.

Located approximately 80 kilometers north of Bangkok, the ancient city of Ayutthaya is known as the "Venice of the East", and it lies along the Chao Phraya River, the tributaries of which surround Ayutthaya province. The glory of the Ayutthaya empire (1350-1767A.D.) is evident in the remains of temples such as Wat Phra Sri Sanphet and Wat Chai Wattanaram, which we will visit in the afternoon. A further visit includes Wat Yai Chai Mongkol. This well-tended temple was founded by King U-Thong in 1357 as a center for monks returning from study in Sri Lanka. The white reclining Buddha near the entrance was built by King Naresuan. The massive pagoda was also built by King Naresuan to celebrate his defeat of the Burmese at Suphanburi in 1593 by killing their crown prince in a single-handed combat on elephants.
