Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho) Tours and Tickets
One of the oldest, largest, and most revered temple complexes in Bangkok, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho) is a must-see for all visitors to the Thai capital. The central attraction of the temple complex is its namesake statue—the gold leaf–covered reclining Buddha—but don't let it distract you from the site's other treasures, including its 95 pagodas, carved narrative panels, and opulent main altar.

Mr Nine is the best!
Best driver and coordinator Mr 9! He made my day extra special! The reclining Buddha was so beautiful and so were the kitties that the monks look after! Thank you!

GREAT WAY TO SEE THE TEMPLES
Was good to go out early as the heat was too much if you went later. The temples were amazing and Luk our guide told us lots of interesting tales and history. She also explained some of the beliefs like banging the gong. We were lucky to see a new monk ceremony and his family all there supporting him
Didn't feel rushed and were able to see everything at a good pace. Would recommend.

Perfect afternoon in Bangkok
Meow was a wonderful tour guide. I was very interested to learn how to recognize country of origin of various Buddhas and the different poses. The visit to the jewelry center was a-maz-ing!!! Very happy.

Must do!
We had a great time seeing all the temples and the amazing Buddha statues. This is definitely something you have to see in person to fully appreciate. Our guide was considerate, knowledgeable, and fun. I recommended this tour to anyone going to Bangkok.
