  • Day 1: Arrive in Bangkok → transfer to hotel → evening welcome dinner and brief city stroll (minimal walking, easy transfers).

  • Day 2: Grand Palace & temple tour → guided walks through ornate courtyards and temple grounds (2–3 hours of walking on mostly flat, paved surfaces).

  • Day 4: Day trip to Ayutthaya → coach transfer (2 hrs) → guided temple-ruin exploration (3–4 hours walking on uneven stone paths) → return to Bangkok.

  • Day 5: Transfer to Pattaya → beach time (light walking on sand, optional beachfront strolls) → beachfront dinner.
