Overview
Take a Trip to The Grand Palace on your Thailand Vacation
The Grand Palace is a walled complex of several magnificent buildings in Bangkok. It has served as the residence of the Kings of Thailand since 1782. The palace was commissioned by then-king Rama I, the founder of Thailand's Chakri dynasty. One of Thailand's most important cultural attractions, the Grand Palace attracts over eight million people every year.
The roughly rectangular palace complex spans over 2.3 million sq-ft. (213,676 sq-m) and houses royal residences, throne halls, holy sites, a library holding Buddhist scriptures, a golden wooden pavilion, gardens, and courtyards. The Emerald Buddha Temple, Thailand's most sacred site, is located within the precincts of the palace. A miniature Angkor Wat across the temple dates to the reign of Rama IV when Cambodia was a vassal state of Siam. You can observe the changing architectural styles used throughout the complex's 200 years of construction. Entry to the palace is through the Wiseedtschairi Gate. Visitors to the Grand Palace are expected to dress modestly.

What do the experts say?
Thailand is a friendly destination with fun & warm people, great food, and impressive cultural and beach experiences. Simply wandering neighbourhoods, visiting temples, shops & viewpoints, and eating at local restaurants are what I enjoy most when visiting Thailand. The south of Thailand is a special location with beautiful scenery and a seemingly laid back lifestyle, so visiting this area is always a special and memorable experience.
The experience of travelling from island to island on longtail boats in the south of Thailand is something that still resonates with me after many years.
For families, visiting a sustainable community in Koh Yao Yai can bring the trip to life with local interaction. For honeymooners, personalizing memorable experiences with special menus, in-room dining and more can really elevate the experience for Goway guests.
All the people that I met at the hotel, restaurants, and parks were always smiling at me. I can feel that they are grateful to all international tourists. A Thai smile inspires me most and makes me want to revisit.

Everything was great and went smoothly DawnI can't tell you enough how much I love to work with Callie. She is a life saver and I love how attentive she is.

It was exactly what we wanted but navigating their site was extremely difficult for us. Goway Travel picked up on our plight and put us in contact with Jacqueline Fagooli, one of their agents. From there on everything was so smooth. Their efficiency, communication, and thoroughness were beyond our expectations. The trip was fabulous and kudos to Jacqueline and Goway for their help in making it so.Carolyn McCormackThe destination specialist I've worked with (Kim Rawlings) has provided exceptional service. She is very knowledgeable of her region and everything they have to offer. She is very prompt in her communication and follow-up. She listens and is very attentive to my client's needs and wants.

If GoWay had a customer service model, Kim is it.T. Jackson, Tribe Trek TravelWe had a wonderful and amazing two weeks in North-West Scotland.
