Overview
You will be met at the cruise port by your professional English speaking guide who will then take you to your awaiting air conditioned transportation ready to embark on the drive to Pattaya.
The drive to the Sanctuary of Truth will take approximately 45 minutes (depending on traffic), this will be our first visit of the tour. The Sanctuary of Truth, an iconic structure in Pattaya. Intricately carved entirely from teak wood, the awe-inspiring 105-meter-tall hall on the headland to the north of Wongamat Beach is a one-of-a-kind structure in the world. Neither temple nor palace, despite looking like a hybrid of both, was commissioned by a local business tycoon to act as a place of appreciation for philosophy, art, culture, and faith, without being tied to a single religion. Your guide will be giving you all of the history associated to this place whilst you wander taking in this beautiful site.
After a short time and free time we will continue the tour to ‘Lan Po Naklua Market’, the largest seafood market in Pattaya selling a wide assortment of live and cooked seafood. This market gives you an opportunity to savor the freshest seafood at a very reasonable price. Experience the culture and ambience of a typical working market here in Pattaya. You will also be given free time to explore the area before meeting back with your guide.
The tour will then come to an end, and you will be taken back to the cruise port with your guide in plenty of time for your cruise ships departure.
