Take Home the Pictures: a Wat Arun Photo Shoot in Thai Traditional Dress
If you want one truly memorable set of pictures from your trip, this is it. Our Wat Arun photo shoot puts the architecture of the finest temple on the river together with Thai traditional dress. A private transfer takes you to the Temple of Dawn in the late afternoon, the point in the day when the light turns warm and soft, which is exactly what a portrait needs.
Before you start, you choose the outfit you like best, and basic hairstyling to match it is included (you can add professional make-up and premium accessories if you want them). Once you are ready the set is yours: a professional photographer takes you around the spires of Wat Arun and directs you shot by shot, suggesting the poses that work in each spot. You get the digital files afterwards, ready to print or to share.

Sample Itinerary
Pickup from your hotel reception. You meet our host and set off in a comfortable air-conditioned private vehicle to the area of the Temple of Dawn, in full comfort.
Once we are near the temple, we help you choose the Thai traditional dress you want to be photographed in. Our staff assist you with dressing and do a basic hairstyle to match the outfit.
When you are ready, we go into Wat Arun. This is where it all happens: a professional photographer is yours for the session, guiding you around the intricate architecture of the temple and directing the poses that catch the golden light of the late afternoon.
Once the shoot is over and the outfits have been handed back, the experience comes to an end, with a transfer back to your hotel.
The itinerary may change due to weather conditions or other unforeseeable circumstances.

Useful Tips
- Number of pictures: the final count varies with the weather, the size of your group and how smoothly the session runs.
- Footwear (not included): for men, black or brown leather shoes work best. For women, low heels of 3 to 5 cm keep the look graceful and are easier to walk in around the temple.
- Underwear: for women we strongly recommend a strapless bra, which sits best under the traditional Thai cut.
- Young girls and babies: if you are traveling with small children, bring a fitted vest or top for them to wear under the costume.
- Don't be shy: the photographer is there to help. Follow the directions on poses and where to look, and the pictures come out far better.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I tell whether an excursion is right for me?
Every tour and activity is described in detail in your personalized itinerary. For each excursion you will find precise information on:
- Difficulty level: easy, moderate or demanding.
- Duration: from half a day to a full day.
- Requirements: minimum level of fitness, recommended age and accessibility.
Please also bear in mind that sea excursions by speedboat are usually not suitable for pregnant women or for people with heart or back problems. Travelers with disabilities should be accompanied by someone who can assist them when needed. If you have any doubts or specific requirements, your Travel Consultant is always at your disposal for personalized advice.
What happens in case of bad weather?
Safety is our priority. If weather conditions make an activity dangerous or inadvisable, the excursion will be:
- Rescheduled: we will try to move the activity to another day of your trip.
- Replaced: if rescheduling is not possible, we will offer an alternative activity of equal value.
- Refunded: if neither rescheduling nor replacement is possible, you will receive a full refund for the excursion you were unable to take.
Please remember that rain during the wet season rarely spoils an entire day. You will always be informed in advance of any changes.
What are the pick-up times?
All meeting and pick-up details are clearly stated in your final travel documents (which you receive about 3 weeks before departure).
- Time: we will let you know the exact pick-up time. Please be ready at the agreed place at least 15 minutes beforehand.
- Pick-up point: in most cases the pick-up takes place directly in the lobby of your accommodation (if it lies within the areas covered by the service). If it does not, we will tell you the nearest meeting point.
What should I bring with me on the excursions?
For every excursion we provide a list of recommended items. In general, we always suggest:
- Suitable clothing: for example, long pants and no low-cut tops when visiting the Grand Palace in Bangkok, light and breathable clothes for hot areas, a swimsuit, or comfortable shoes for light trekking.
- Protection: hat, sunglasses and sunscreen.
- Hydration: water, especially on hot days.
- Vouchers and documents: where required, a copy (digital or printed) of your booking voucher.
Are meals or drinks included during the tours?
It depends on the excursion. The description of each tour in your itinerary clearly states whether the following are included:
- Lunch, dinner or snacks.
- Water or other drinks.
If you have any food allergies or intolerances, please let us know when you book, so that we can inform our local partners in advance.

It depends on the activity. Some excursions, especially those by boat or those requiring physical effort, may have age or height restrictions for safety reasons. Any such restriction is stated in the tour description.
