Two wonderful excursions, packed into one. Take a drive out of the city centre of Bangkok and head down to the Samut Prakan Province and visit the biggest crocodile farm in the world and watch a daredevil show between man and beast, romping around with crocodiles, handling them with sometimes only their bare hands. Founded in the 1950-ies, you can view over 10,000 of these fascinating creatures from tiny babies to full-grown giants. The whole complex can be admired via an elevated covered walkway. Besides the crocodiles, there is also a nice little zoo, with road shows featuring trained elephants and monkeys. Enjoy lunch en route before we head out to the Ancient City. See one of the world’s largest outdoor museums of over 300 acres, which contains over 100 replicas of Thailand’s famous authentic wooden villages, renowned temples and markets, following Thailand’s geographical outline all the way from south to northern Thailand. Called “Muang Boran” – Ancient City - also houses several ethnological displays of artefacts and antiques. Rural arts, ancient tools, and hunting equipment, evidence of the long-term survival of a native culture. You will see the most outstanding recreation of Thai architecture, history and way of life. Thailand can be – in this way - even quickly visited in a much shorter time! We return back to your booked Bangkok Hotel.
