- Pattaya Sightseeing Tour By Sun Leisure World - 08:00 Hours: Meet us at the meeting point in the lobby of Hotel Dusit Thani Pattaya. Our Sun Leisure World staff will meet you at the hotel lobby, or you can visit our office located just beside the restaurant.
- Walking Street Pattaya - 9:45 AM: We will pass by this famous nightlife center while it’s quiet in the morning. Check out the street during the morning - please note that it’s just a passing glance.
- Bali Hai Pier - 10:00 Hours: The most famous viewpoint in Pattaya is here. If you’re in Pattaya, this spot is a must to capture. The biggest Pattaya signage is worth capturing, and it’s important to note that this is also the pier for the Coral Island.
- Pattaya City Sign - Viewpoint - 10:00 Hours: Pattaya Viewpoint (Khao Pattaya View Point) on Pratumnak Hill is the best viewpoint in the region and the place to visit, day or night, to get that classic shot of Pattaya’s sweeping, crescent bay. Be warned, though, this is anything but an insider’s tip, so expect to share your view with an almost ceaseless conveyor-belt of package tours and the local traders who follow them, touting cheap souvenirs and expensive refreshments. This might sound off-putting, but the reality is tours will usually stop for 10 to 15 minutes, and once they have been called back to the bus, the viewpoint becomes quiet and peaceful – perfect for enjoying the stunning scenery. We will go to Big Buddha and Viewpoint in a 15-minute time.
- Big Buddha Temple - 10:30 Hours: Big Buddha Hill or Wat Phra Yai offers a view of the biggest Buddha image in Chonburi province, visible from far away as you approach the hill. The Buddha image is situated on top of Pratamnak Hill, just south of the city of Pattaya. Driving up the road to the top of the hill will provide you with some very nice views of the Pattaya bay area.
- Buddha Mountain (Khao Chi Chan) - 11:30 Hours: Khao Chi Chan, also known as Buddha Mountain, is a remarkable natural and cultural attraction located in the vicinity of Pattaya, Thailand. This awe-inspiring landmark features a massive Buddha image carved into the face of a limestone hill, leaving visitors in awe. The image on Khao Chi Chan is an intricate depiction of Lord Buddha, measuring an impressive 109 meters in height and 70 meters in width. The carving is meticulously crafted and filled with intricate details, creating a mesmerizing sight that showcases the artistic skills of Thai craftsmen. The surrounding area of Khao Chi Chan offers a tranquil and serene atmosphere, with beautifully landscaped gardens, reflecting pools, and statues.
- Pattaya Floating Market - 12:00 Hours: Pattaya Floating Market is a cultural escape in Pattaya, showcasing the lifestyle of ancient people alongside a modern floating market. Try some local lunch here.
- Gems Gallery Pattaya - 13:30 Hours: Immerse yourself in the magical world of jewelry and precious stones at Gems Gallery in Pattaya. This new factory branch covers an area of 15,200 sq. m. The truly spectacular store invites you to experience its sound-and-light show about the magnificent world of gems. Enjoy an informative excursion into the history of the origin and mining of precious stones and minerals.
- Pattaya Sightseeing Tour By Sun Leisure World - 14:00 Hours: Return to Sun Leisure World Pattaya at Dusit Thani Hotel and then head back to your hotel.

Excellent tour. I highly recommend it. The tour guide was so good. He spoke great English and kept the tour moving. - This tour is the best way to see the highlights of Pattaya. You get to ride in a comfortable van and be taken to the good spots.

Great day out in Pattaya. - Had a great day out seeing the sights in Pattaya.
The Santuary of Truth location was an extra 500Bt, which was well worth it.
Its the same price as the entry fee for others at the entrance.
The floating markets was the highlight for us.
Sometimes it was a little rushed from location to llcation, wish there was a bit more time allowed at each, because its not a long day.

Fantastic tour, well worth the money and you get to see and experience a lot of Pattaya in one day - This was a fantastic tour with great tour guides. Michell in particular was awesome! This tour was a full day, we saw and did so many things and it was great value for money. They even tacked the Sanctuary of Truth onto the tour for 500B. I totally recommend this tour if you want bang for your buck and you want to see and experience as much of Pattaya as you can in one day. A+

Savoring the Landmarks of Pattaya - The city tour conducted by Nok was very informative, well structured and enjoyable. From the top of Pattaya, seeing the large Buddha, enjoying the floating city and visiting the gem factory, the experience was awesome and a great experience for a half day. Our van, which was driven by Nikon, was safe and comfortable. Many pleasant memories from this tour!

Nice trip - Absolutely a great tour to "have a Look around" in Pattaya. We started in the morning for reason, I dont like crowded areas. We stopped for pictures and our guide was friendly as politely taking pictures from the group. The highlight in the floating market before hundred of groups are arriving there. And we saw a wild Buffalo on the way! A small and easy lunch is also included and fully enough as on the market you can get everything beside that ;) the sanctuary of thruth tour was very helpful to notice highlights of it, but with having only 1 hr time with 1hr tour its not enough taking pictures. Less tourguiding, more pictures would have been good. Or tourguiding and more time. My pictures are crowded:( anyhow, a beautiful Day with some highlights in Pattaya, its worth it

Pattaya - Not as good as I expected. The guide was excellent and showed us the sights of Pattaya but the Floating Market let us down. Maybe we expected something more but it was just like a man made water way.

Poor Service - 1. Lack of communication—I didn't hear from the driver or the pickup team until the day of the trip, when I got a text confirmation that my pickup time was between 8 and 8:30AM. I received another text saying that I'm no longer part of the tour group because my reservation was made late. This was incorrect because the tour group later realized their mistake after sending screenshots of my reservation.
2. Tour Guide - We didn't visit all the listed places. The tour guide didn't provide information on some places we drove by. It was very hard to hear the tour guide because the English was not good. The entire experience was unpleasant to say the least.
