Dear all,

I am planning to use Chao Phraya Tourist Boat to visit all the temples like Royal Grand palace,Wat Phra Keo,Wat Pho,Wat Arun is it possible to finish it in by one day? Can anyone let me know where to board and where to get off, notice there are a few differ color of boat like local line, orange, yellow and blue flag. Which one should I take ?

And please let me know where to buy cheap Transfomers toy...

Thanks

Re the river boat, see my transportation tip about this (link below). You could definitely see the temples within the day but start early. As to toys, there are department stores everywhere (MBK, Pratunam, Central World, EGV, etc.) that sell them. Hope this helps.

Don't use the "tourist" boat just the regular boat. You can visit all those places in one day. The pier o get off at is Tha Chang. I can't tell you what pier to get on at as I don't know where you are staying.

Hi

I dont think its necessary to take tourist boat if you want to see those places,
You can start in morning from Grand Palace & Wat Pra Keo which are in same place, and then you can just walk to Wat Pho,just about 5 minutes. and from Wat Pho, there is a peir that you can take a boat just to cross the river(3 baht for fee) to Wat Arun.

and you will have plenty of time to go shopping for the toy in evening.

Thanks for all your info..
