What to expect

  1. Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong)
    1h
    After the ritual, we will bring food to the monk (I will give it for you).

    Food bringing is one of the most important in Thailand –in Thai villages you still can see how people especially wake up early to give food to the monk. Because that ritual brings luck to your day.
  2. Phiphitthaphan Rup Muean Chao-athikan Wat Chalong
    15m
    Also, we will make a prediction by Siamsi fortune-telling.

    Siamsi sticks – is a traditional Buddhist way to predict the future. Many centuries Thai locals using this ritual to get answers about the future - there are more than 28 different predictions, I will translate your prediction for you from the Thai language.
  3. Khet Aphaiyathan
    15m
    After this, I will bring you around the temple to give you a small excursion about Thai Buddhism. I am from a traditional Thai family, I have a lot of interesting stories to tell.

    We are not a big company – we are a local family business. Our target is not to make money so Normally group is a pretty small - only 1 to 4 people. So most of the tours going in private style. It helps to keep the best tour quality and keep the morning atmosphere.

    Skip the tourist traps and explore temple like a local.
