Reisroute
Khao Wang of Phra Nakhon Khiri Historical Park is een opmerkelijke toeristische trekpleister in de provincie Petchaburi; het is het symbool van de provincie. Khao Wang is zeer opmerkelijk en duidelijk van een verre afstand te zien, inclusief de witte chedi en gebouwen. Khao Wang is de oude overblijfselen van de provincie Petchaburi die zich op de 92 meter hoge berg bevinden. We nemen de kabelbaan om naar de top van de berg te gaan.
Centraal gelegen, glanzend witte Wat Mahathat is een indrukwekkende tempel. Het paradepaardje is een 42 meter hoge prang (maïskolfvormige stoepa) met vijf niveaus, versierd met stucreliëf, een specialiteit van de lokale ambachtslieden van Phetchaburi die je overal in de stad zult zien. In het wí·hăhn (heiligdom) dat ervoor ligt, bevinden zich belangrijke, hoewel zwaar beschadigde, vroeg-20e-eeuwse muurschilderingen.
Ongeveer 4 km ten noorden van de stad ligt de Khao Luang-grot, een dramatische met stalactieten gevulde grot die een van de meest indrukwekkende grotheiligdommen van Thailand is, en een favoriet van koning Rama IV toen hij monnik was. Het is toegankelijk via steile trappen en wordt elke ochtend verlicht door een hemelse gloed (als de wolken het toelaten) wanneer de zonnestralen door het natuurlijke dakraam naar binnen filteren.

Wonderful experience! Our tour group was nice and small, 3 couples and we were all from Canada which was great! Worra, our guide was excellent. Very informative! The time spent at each location was good and our stop for lunch on the way back to the hotel was delicious. We are vegetarian - they had prepared some lovely dishes with tofu! The cave was the main reason I wanted to check this out and it did not disappoint.
Wora was our guide and was wonderful and very knowledgeable about all the locations we visited. The location where we had lunch was delicious (and not too spicy). All in all a great experience. Love to Wora she did a great job. Robert Lange 3-12-2026 😀👍👌
I tried to book this excursion but got no confirmation and it didnt appear in my bookings , so I made alternative plans. Less than 24hrs before the tour operator called to confirm obviously I couldn't go because I'd made other plans. They had tried to email me but this had failed because I had a postmaster notice sometime later telling me so, they would have got one at the time. The tour operator and trip advisor wont refund me as it was less than 24 hours the trip time. Talk about poor customer service.
Thank you for your review. We would like to clarify a few important points regarding your booking. You made your reservation through TripAdvisor, not directly with us. The day before the tour, we confirmed your pick‑up time, but you informed us that you had changed your plans and mentioned that you had not received a booking confirmation or booking number from TripAdvisor. However, a booking number is required to contact TripAdvisor for a refund request, which indicates that the confirmation email must have been received. When you later attempted to request a refund using a different explanation, TripAdvisor declined it in accordance with the cancellation policy you agreed to at the time of booking. We had reserved your place on the tour, and both TripAdvisor’s customer service and our own team responded promptly and clearly to your messages. Communication was smooth, and we did our best to assist you throughout the process.
Very interesting tour about King Rama 4 and his holiday palace. Learnt more than the usual facts. The cave was vey good. Quite a few steep steps to go down to but worth it
Pick up was prompt from the hotel. Naree, our guide, was very informative, easy to understand and a joy to be around. The summer palace was interesting, especially the scenery around it. The stop at Wat Mahathat was good and we were able to make offerings. The icing on the cake was Khao Luang Cave! Lunch, following, was really tasty. The people in our group really made the day special!!
Great tour with a small group. Very interesting and informative trip. Temple and palace were beautiful, but the cave was amazing. Tough hike in and out, but do-able. Stairs were just pretty steep. The lunch was great, very tasty. The guide did a wonderful job of describing everything we were seeing. Highly recommend this tour.
Great guide and driver, small group 9 only! Very interesting history and sights especially the cave, lunch was excellent, just the right duration ticked all the boxes
Very nice day trip. Well organized and our guide was very informative. With bad knees, the steps out of the cave were very difficult for me, but otherwise a nice experience for seniors like myself.
A good trip that covered 3 different sites all with their own unique characteristics. We went to a Temple, a cave system and the Kings royal summer palace. The tour guide was great and provided lots of background on the various sites and items we came across. I would happily recommend this tour.
It is a serious climb that you should certainly not underestimate in hot weather but really worth it. We took a boat to the beach but walking 1km is also perfect, I think.
