Take to the skies and discover the ancient city of Ayutthaya from a completely different perspective. Departing from Bangkok’s Don Mueang Airport, this scenic flight reveals the timeless beauty of the UNESCO-listed former capital in unmatched comfort, with a bird’s-eye view of the Kingdom of Siam’s main city from 1350 to 1767. During this 417-year period, 33 kings ruled from this location. It became one of the most prosperous global trading places of its time, attracting merchants from afar. The wealth generated by international commerce financed the magnificent architecture. Visitors of old described sunlight reflecting off jewel-adorned temples and gilded spires. From above, we witness the remarkable ruins of palaces, temples and monasteries scattered across a 4 km-wide island at the confluence of three rivers.

Highlights include revered Wat Phanan Choeng Worawihan, Wat Thammikarat, Wat Lokayasutharam, Wat Khun Phrom and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, iconic landmarks that define this special city. The flight culminates with a spectacular aerial view of Wat Phu Khao Thong, whose impressive 50-metre-high chedi stands as a lasting testament to Ayutthaya’s rich heritage. More than a sightseeing flight, this extraordinary experience offers a captivating journey through time, revealing the splendour of Ayutthaya from its heyday to the present time.
