From the port city of Laem Chabang, discover the contrasting charms of Krung Thep (City of Angels) amongst the exotic temples, lavish palaces, teeming markets and urban skyline of Bangkok. Once a small trading center, Thailand’s capital city thrums equally on vendors selling legendary street food, graceful Thai architecture and saffron-robed monks. Ride a ubiquitous tuk-tuk to Wat Pho, home to an immense, reclining, gold-plated Buddha. See floating grocery stores and teakwood houses built on stilts on a boat tour along the Chao Phaya River. After shopping for Thai silk and jewelry, dine on classic Bangkok dishes like pad Thai, Khao mun gai and mango sticky rice.

OVERLAND - KHMER KALEIDOSCOPE & ANGKOR WAT CODE: LACL96
This incredible journey invites you to reflect on the past with a visit to the Tuol Sleng Museum in Phnom Penh, a sobering reminder of the brutal tragedy brought about by the temporary rule of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge in the 1970s.

DAY 1 – April 5, 2026
Disembark the ship in Laem Chabang, Thailand and transfer by coach to the Bangkok Airport for a flight to Phnom Penh.
Upon arrival in Phnom Penh, you will be met and assisted with obtaining a Cambodian Entry Visa. Once this has been issued, proceed to the hotel for check-in. Dinner is on your own.
Day 2 – April 6, 2026
Enjoy breakfast at your hotel before setting out. This morning visit Tuol Sleng Museum, originally a local high school which was taken over in 1975 by the Khmer Rouge and converted into “Security Prison 21” (S - 21). During the three years of Khmer Rouge brutality the prison became synonymous with terror. Today the prison has reopened as a museum and offers a grim reminder of the excesses of the Khmer Rouge.
After you have had time to absorb the tragic events, a stop is made at the Russian Market. Named thanks to its popularity with visitors from the former USSR in the 1980s, the Russian Market is probably the city's best source of objects d'art and craft items. Lighten your spirits as you browse the various goods on offer, re-assured that despite the country’s dark history, the good people of Cambodia have persevered.
Your guide will lead you around the market and be on hand to explain some of the more curious items for sale, including wooden and stone carvings, various ritual objects, silverware, and old Indochinese notes and coins.
Next, travel thirty minutes outside of Phnom Penh to the somber 'Killing Fields' of the Khmer Rouge and the mass graves that tells the dark story of Cambodia’s disturbing past.
After lunch at a local restaurant, you will visit The Royal Palace. This structure was constructed earlier this century on the site of the Banteay Kev, a citadel built in 1813. Keen-eyed travelers may spot the design is strongly influenced by The Royal Palace in Bangkok.
Together with your guide, venture inside the Palace's Silver Pagoda and its surrounding compound (the only section that is open to visitors). The Silver Pagoda, also known as Wat Preah Keo, was given its name because of over 5,000 silver tiles (weighing 1kg each) that cover the floor.
Continue your exploration of Phnom Penh at the National Museum of Khmer Art and Archaeology, otherwise known as 'Musée des Beaux-Arts' or 'Musée Albert Sarraut'. This museum is considered one of the finest museums of classical Cambodian art.
This evening enjoy dinner at a local restaurant.

After lunch, venture to the Angkor Wat Temple Complex. You will have approximately 2 hours to explore its archaeological treasures with your guide before returning to your hotel.
Your guide will point out the best spots for taking photos of this massive temple complex as you walk amidst the moss-peppered cobbled pathways, gaze up at the intricately carved tower tops and perhaps climb the steep and narrow temple steps that lead to wide courtyards. Lose yourself in contemplation as you catch the rays of the sun dancing off the bas relief carvings at sunset, the chatter of monkeys reverberating off the temple walls.
This evening dinner is on own.

Note: This program is not suitable for guests who rely on the use of a wheelchair or scooter.
DAY 1 – April 4, 2026
Disembark the ship in Laem Chabang and transfer by coach 1.5-2 hours to Bangkok.
Once in the city, visit the Grand Palace, the former residence of a number of kings. Now used primarily for royal ceremonies, the palace contains numerous smaller palaces and halls for specific purposes such as the Funeral Palace, Reception Palace, Coronation Hall and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Its namesake Buddha is made of translucent green jasper, and the king changes its vestments three times a year during a solemn ceremony.
Following your visit, proceed to a local restaurant for lunch.
Your next stop will be at Wat Po, otherwise known as the revered Temple of the Reclining Buddha which is the oldest temple in Bangkok. More than one thousand Buddha images adorn the grounds. It also holds Thailand’s largest reclining Buddha, an immense gold-plated statue that is 150 feet long and nearly 50 feet high.
Next, proceed to the Shangri La for check in. Set beside the Chao Phraya River, this hotel offers a comfortable and elegant stay in the heart of the city. The hotel features well-appointed rooms, a variety of dining options, and relaxing leisure facilities including a riverside pool and renowned spa.

Along the way, you will enjoy picturesque scenes of traditional Thai canal life, including floating grocery stores, speeding water taxis, teakwood houses built on stilts and hidden temples.
Your first stop will be at the Royal Barge Museum, which houses ornately decorated longboats that were once used for royal functions. Here, you can see the lavish Suphanahonge, a gold-encrusted swan-shaped barge that only the king used. There are also many other fascinating and unique barges on display, each revealing a remarkable degree of exquisite craftsmanship.
You will next travel to Wat Arun, known as the Temple of Dawn. It is one of the most well-known and popular attractions in Bangkok, and you will have some free time to stroll around the lovely grounds. Be sure to notice the beautiful decorative murals.
Your next visit is to Khlong Bang Luang Artist House otherwise known as Baan Silapin. Tucked along a quiet canal in Thonburi, the Khlong Bang Luang Artist House is a charming cultural hideaway in a century-old teakwood home. This community-run space features rotating art exhibits, and hands-on workshops like mask painting. Visitors can enjoy the peaceful canal-side atmosphere, browse for local crafts, or relax at the on-site café. A visit here offers a refreshing escape from the city's pace while supporting local artists and preserving Thai heritage.

OVERLAND - ANCIENT CAPITAL OF THAILAND CODE: LACL99
Explore the archeological ruins of the most magnificent Buddhist temples in Ayutthaya, the country’s former capital and a UNESCO World Heritage site acclaimed for presenting an authentic look at Thailand’s past glory.
Note: this is a small group program with no more than 20 guests
Special Note: Due to the amount of walking on this program, we do not recommend it for anyone who requires use of a wheelchair, walker or cane.
Note: All travelers must now complete a Thailand Digital Arrival Card, within 3 days of arriving in Thailand including the date of arrival at https://tdac.immigration.go.th/arrival-card/#/home
Day 1 – April 4, 2026
After disembarking the ship in Laem Chabang, you will meet the guide and proceed to Ayutthaya, the former capital of Old Siam. The drive will take about two hours, so be sure to eat a hearty meal before taking off.
Strategically positioned on an island between three rivers, the city of Ayutthaya rose to prosperity shortly after being founded in 1350, when the Siamese kingdom flourished through trade between the East and West. It remained one of the world’s most cosmopolitan and commercially important cities until the Burmese destroyed Ayutthaya in the 18th century and forced the residents to move to the new capital of Bangkok.
Even so, the archaeological ruins of its monumental monasteries offer a glimpse into its past splendor and size. UNESCO deemed Ayutthaya a World Heritage site in light of these treasures, the simple grid design of its streets and the city’s extremely advanced hydraulic system of water management.
As you meander through the Ayutthaya Historical Park, you will see an abundance of religious buildings such as Wat Ratchaburana. This Buddhist temple features a magnificent central tower, known as a prang, whose priceless contents were recovered and preserved in a national museum.
Following lunch, you will visit Wat Phanan Cheoeng, a temple located at the confluence of the Chao Phraya and Pa Sak rivers. Its oversized statue of Buddha is one of the oldest and most revered such images of Buddha in Thailand. Behind the temple is a small 18th-century shrine built to honor a Chinese princess with a tragic story.
In the late afternoon, you will arrive at the Kantary Hotel for check in. After a bit of time to freshen up, you will enjoy dinner at the hotel and the remainder of the evening on your own.
DAY 2 – April 5, 2026
Following breakfast and check out from the hotel, you will spend the morning visiting a collection of temples in the countryside beyond Ayutthaya. Each has its own allure.
Wat Yai Chai Mongkon is known for its outdoor reclining Buddha and multi-tiered chedi that held sacred relics associated with Buddha. Wat Chaiwatthanaram was built in 1630 to resemble a renowned Angkor temple in Cambodia, while Wat Phu Khao Thong, whose name translates to the Temple of the Golden Mount, features a stark white chedi. It rises above a flat plain of rice fields.
After lunch at a restaurant, you will transfer back to the port at Laem Chabang and re-embark the ship.
