Itinerary

Admission included60 min

Pattaya Floating Market is a cultural escape in Pattaya, showcasing the lifestyle of ancient people alongside a modern floating market. Try some local lunch here.

Admission included20 min

Big Buddha Hill or Wat Phra Yai offers a view of the biggest Buddha image in Chonburi province, visible from far away as you approach the hill. The Buddha image is situated on top of Pratamnak Hill, just south of the city of Pattaya. Driving up the road to the top of the hill will provide you with some very nice views of the Pattaya bay area.

Admission included15 min

Pattaya Viewpoint (Khao Pattaya View Point) on Pratumnak Hill is the best viewpoint in the region and the place to visit, day or night, to get that classic shot of Pattaya’s sweeping, crescent bay. Be warned, though, this is anything but an insider’s tip, so expect to share your view with an almost ceaseless conveyor-belt of package tours and the local traders who follow them, touting cheap souvenirs and expensive refreshments. This might sound off-putting, but the reality is tours will usually stop for 10 to 15 minutes.

Pass by

The most famous viewpoint in Pattaya is here. If you're in Pattaya, this spot is a must to capture. The biggest Pattaya signage is worth capturing, and it's important to note that this is also the pier for the Coral Island.

Admission included45 min

Immerse yourself in the magical world of jewelry and precious stones at Gems Gallery in Pattaya. This new factory branch covers an area of 15,200 sq. m. The truly spectacular store invites you to experience its sound-and-light show about the magnificent world of gems. Enjoy an informative excursion into the history of the origin and mining of precious stones and minerals

Worth nothing

Not worth the money! Lunch was arranged at 09.30 not normal. And city sign not visited!

Operator response

Hallo, vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass die Tour Ihre Erwartungen nicht erfüllt hat. Wir verstehen, dass ein Mittagessen um 09:30 Uhr ungewöhnlich wirkt und dass das Auslassen des Pattaya City Sign für Enttäuschung sorgen kann. Das entspricht nicht dem Erlebnis, das wir unseren Gästen bieten möchten. Wir nehmen Ihre Rückmeldung sehr ernst und werden diesen Fall mit unserem lokalen Betriebsteam prüfen, um besser zu verstehen, was an diesem Tag passiert ist. Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns mit Ihrer Buchungsnummer, damit wir den Vorgang im Detail überprüfen und Sie bestmöglich unterstützen können. Vielen Dank, dass Sie uns darauf aufmerksam gemacht haben.

A visit to a few interesting sites

It would have been better if there was a guide who spoke English rather than a driver who remained silent the whole journey.

Operator response

We’re pleased to hear that you had the opportunity to visit several interesting sites during your tour. We also sincerely appreciate your comment regarding the guide service. This experience is operated with a driver for transportation and convenience, rather than a licensed English-speaking tour guide, but we understand that having more commentary during the journey could make the experience more engaging and enjoyable.

We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you again on another experience in Pattaya.

It's just a...

It is only a driver who will accompany us. He explains nothing and speaks very little English. I would have taken a cab for a lot less. Not worth the cost

Operator response

Merci pour votre retour, et nous sommes désolés que l’expérience n’ait pas été à la hauteur. Cette prestation est principalement un transport privé avec chauffeur (et non une visite guidée), mais nous comprenons votre déception concernant le manque d’explications et le faible niveau d’anglais. Nous allons vérifier la description pour la rendre plus claire et transmettre votre commentaire à notre équipe afin d’améliorer le service.

Not what we paid for

We were picked up by our driver, who didn’t speak much english despite the package offering an english speaking guide. There was no guide just the driver, whose response to any questions was “call the agent”. An itinerary would have been helpful, but none was provided. We were at the mercy of the driver. This is basically how the day went: - Pick up at our hotel at 10am - Stopped at the Gem gallery - 1hr allocated by driver. No way near enough time to shop had to rush out. - Big Buddha - 40mins allocated by driver - adequate - Pattaya City view point - Allocated 1hr - Floating Market - Allocated 1hr no where near enough time. Apparently this was where we’re supposed to be offered lunch, but because we were allocated 1hr and ushered off at the entrance we weren’t provided any information about the ‘included lunch’, and would’ve been impractical even if it had been provided in that time frame. When we called the agent, we were not provided any explanation or offer of refund. There is much room for improvement for a potentially good tour.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We truly appreciate your time and suggestions as they help us improve our guest experience. We’re glad you enjoyed exploring Pattaya’s key attractions and will ensure clearer communication and itinerary details for future travelers. Your input is valuable, and we hope to welcome you again with an even better experience next time.
