This private day trip from Bangkok follows a fixed timetable, and the timetable is the best way to describe it. A personal driver and guide collect the group at the hotel at 7:00 AM (the exact time varies with the hotel's location). The hike up the seven tiers of Erawan Waterfalls starts at 10:00. Lunch is at 1:00 PM. At 2:00 PM the group reaches the Bridge over the River Kwai, built during World War II, and at 2:30 PM boards a long-tail boat for a ride on the river. The JEATH War Museum follows at 3:00 PM. The drive back begins at 3:30 PM and reaches the hotel around 6:30 PM, again depending on location. Everything on the day is included: private transport in an air-conditioned vehicle, lunch, bottled water, wet napkins and all entrance fees. Guiding is available in English and Mandarin, and up to 15 travelers can book together. The hike makes this a day for travelers with at least a moderate level of fitness. It is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, poor cardiovascular health or pregnancy.

Itinerary

The map could not be loaded. Please try again in a moment.

  1. Erawan Waterfalls

    The main sight of the park is Erawan Falls, named after the erawan, the three-headed white elephant of Hindu mythology, which the seven-tiered falls are said to resemble. The park also has four caves: Mi, Rua, Wang Bahdan and Phartat.

  2. River Kwai

    The Khwae Yai River, also called the Si Sawat, rises in the Tenasserim Hills of western Thailand and runs about 380 kilometres through the districts of Sangkhla Buri, Si Sawat and Mueang in Kanchanaburi Province. At Pak Phraek it joins the Khwae Noi to form the Mae Klong River.

  3. JEATH War Museum

    A war museum about the Death Railway, part of the Thai-Burma railways, built in 1942 and 1943 by Allied prisoners of war under Japanese direction.

  4. The Thailand-Burma Railway Centre

    A museum and research centre in Kanchanaburi. It is privately funded and run by Rod Beattie, an Australian expert on the history of the Thailand-Burma Railway.

  5. Khuean Srinagarindra National Park

    A national park in Kanchanaburi Province centred on the Srinagarind Reservoir. It belongs to the Western Forest Complex protected area.

  6. Prasat Muang Singh Historical Park

    Mueang Sing is a historical park in Sai Yok District, Kanchanaburi Province, declared in 1987. It protects the remains of two Khmer temples from the 13th and 14th centuries, built in the Bayon style under King Jayavarman VII.

  7. River Khwae Bridge

    The Death Railway Bridge is the best-known historical landmark in Kanchanaburi, called the Bridge on the River Kwai after the film of that name. British, Dutch and American prisoners of war built it as forced laborers during World War II.

  8. The Thailand-Burma Railway Centre

    The exhibits give a clear overview of the railway's history and of the brutal conditions that prisoners of war and forced laborers suffered while building it. Personal accounts, photographs, artifacts and videos cover the story from the Japanese invasion to the later lives of some survivors.

  9. Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre and Memorial Walking Trail

    Hellfire Pass is a 500-meter cutting through rock, dug by hand by 1,000 prisoners of war to make way for the Death Railway. Seven hundred of them died in the 12 weeks of digging. The old track can be walked into the jungle (four to five hours), and a memorial museum set up by the Australian government honors the Allied prisoners with artifacts, tools, photos and multimedia displays.

  10. Bang Kao

    A museum on the bank of the Kwai Noi River, about 4,000 years deep into the Neolithic period. It stands on the site of a Neolithic burial center found by an Allied prisoner of war, and shows skeletons, bone jewelry, shell ornaments, tripod pots, axes and other finds from the area.

  11. Sai Yok Yai Waterfall

    A waterfall once visited by King Rama V and praised in Thai songs and poems. It lies in Sai Yok Yai National Park, three kilometers back from the road, reached on foot or by motorbike. Visitors can swim in the river or glide along it between high rock walls.

  12. Srinagarind Dam

    An embankment dam on the Khwae Yai River in Si Sawat District, Kanchanaburi Province, built for river regulation and hydroelectric power. The power station has a capacity of 720 megawatts, of which 360 megawatts is pumped storage. It is named after Princess Srinagarindra.

  13. Phra That Cave

    A cave and waterfall in Erawan National Park.

  14. Chinatown - Bangkok

    Bangkok's Chinatown is a busy, chaotic area of market stalls, with probably the highest concentration of gold shops in the city. Chinese New Year and the Vegetarian Festival bring celebrations across the district.

  15. Sky Bar, Bangkok

    A bar at the top of State Tower, one of Bangkok's tallest buildings, under a golden dome. It sits in a corner of the open-air Sirocco restaurant on the 64th floor, and its illuminated counter changes color every few minutes.

  16. Chatuchak Weekend Market

    Once a market for wholesalers and traders, Chatuchak Weekend Market now draws tourists too. It has more than 8,000 stalls and, on a typical weekend, over 200,000 visitors.

  17. The pioneer of Bangkok floating markets

    Damnoen Saduak was the first of Bangkok's floating markets and is still authentic, though increasingly touristy. Wooden row boats carry fruit, vegetables and flowers, and vendors cook boat noodles and seafood skewers on board. It lies around 100 km southwest of Bangkok.

  18. Jim Thompson House

    Jim Thompson spent three decades reviving Thai silk, then a dying art. After he disappeared in the jungles of Malaysia, his collection of Thai art and antiques went on display at the Jim Thompson House and Museum, a complex of six Thai-style teakwood houses kept in their original state.

  19. Asiatique The Riverfront

    A night bazaar and a mall in one, ten minutes downriver from Saphan Taksin BTS Skytrain Station. The former international trade port now holds over 1,500 boutiques and 40 restaurants in a large replica warehouse complex.

  20. The Chao Phraya River

    The riverside changes through the day and night, with water taxis and laden rice barges moving upstream past temples and luxury hotels. The stretch from Wat Arun to Phra Sumeru Fortress holds some of the oldest settlements in Bangkok, notably Bangkok Noi with its stilt houses along the waterways.

  21. SEA LIFE Bangkok Ocean World

    A large aquarium three storeys below the Siam Paragon shopping mall, about the size of three Olympic swimming pools and one of the largest in Southeast Asia.

  22. Assumption Cathedral

    The principal Roman Catholic cathedral of Bangkok and main church of the Archdiocese of Bangkok, which dates to 1662. In Bang Rak, the present building went up between 1910 and 1918 on the site of an earlier church and was repaired after severe damage in World War II. Pope John Paul II visited in 1984. It can be reached by taxi or by the Chao Phraya Express Boat to Oriental Pier.

  23. Phra Sumen Fort

    King Rama I had 14 forts built to guard the borders of the Old City. Most have disappeared, and only Phra Sumen Fort and Mahakhan Fort remain in Bangkok.

  24. Holy Rosary Church

    The church was first built on the bank of the Chao Phraya River in 1768 on land granted by King Rama I. The Portuguese Catholic church standing near the riverside today comes from rebuilding between 1891 and 1898.

  25. Suan Pakkad Palace Museum

    Suan Pakkad means cabbage patch, which is what the land once was. Today it is a tropical garden with ponds around eight traditional Thai houses holding the fine art, antiques and curiosities of Prince and Princess Chumbhot.

    A center for contemporary art, design, music, theatre and film.

  27. Baiyoke Observation Deck

    Baiyoke Tower II is 304 meters tall, one of the tallest buildings in Bangkok and Thailand, with 88 storeys. A public observatory deck is on the 77th floor, and the top floor has an open-air revolving roof deck with 360-degree views (admission applies). The Baiyoke Sky Hotel occupies floors 22 to 74.

  28. Bangkok Butterfly Garden and Insectarium

    A conservatory in Chatuchak with rockeries, shady ferns, wildflowers and a waterfall, recreating the habitat of butterflies and other insects, suited to a family outing.

  29. Sri Maha Mariamman Temple

    A Hindu temple dedicated to the Goddess Mariamman, built by Tamil immigrants in the 1860s. Its bright colors and ornate decoration stand out in Silom as a sample of Indian architecture in Bangkok.

  30. King Rama I Monument

    A double life-size monument to King Rama I, also called King Puttayodfa, built in 1932 for the city's 150th anniversary, together with the Puttayodfa Memorial Bridge beside which it stands.
