About this activity

Explore Hua Hin's spiritual and scenic landmarks in a half-day guided tour, featuring coastal viewpoints, a revered Buddhist temple, and Thailand's only beachfront winery. Perfect for combining culture, nature, and local gastronomy in one compact itinerary.

Pick up from your Hua Hin or Cha-am resorts to be taken to Monkey Mountain - Khao Takiab - where the Big Buddha Statue is by the sea. Drive up the hill to the best vantage point for a magnificent view of the beautiful coastline of Hua Hin.

One of this tour's highlights is Wat Huay Mongkol, home to the enormous statue of Luang Phor Thuad. Luang Phor Thuad is a legendary Thai monk revered for his enlightenment and ability to perform miracles. The statue, which can be seen from miles away, has him sitting in the meditation pose.

Wine lovers especially will shine to this next destination on the tour's itinerary, Hua Hin Hills Vineyard. Guests will have the opportunity to do some wine tasting (own expense) should they wish. The best time to visit is February/March when it is harvest time.

After roughly one hour here you will move onto Plearnwan. Plearnwan is a delightful, small open-air mall with some shops in a somewhat imitated setting of previous times.
