  • This tour has been developed by local guides, curated by creative writers, and narrated by professional voice artists.

What you can expect

Witness the most photographed site in all of Thailand with this self-guided audio tour! Explore the lavish palace that was home to the Kings of Siam for centuries. Marvel at the incredible artefacts and works of art throughout the palace, like the world-famous Emerald Buddha. As you move, your personal audio guide will fill you in on the history and significance of the most important sights so you really get to know the palace inside and out!

Here's how it works: once you book, we'll send you two things: a unique password and an app. Download the app onto your phone and enter the password. Then download the tour inside. When you arrive, head over to the first stop. Once there, launch the app and simply follow the instructions from there! Stick to our recommended route for the best experience.
