Amazing Tour. Highly Recommended. - There was not a moment of this tour wasted. There’s some time in the car but it’s all worth it to be able to see so much in one day. Joyce was full of knowledge and history. I was the only on the tour and he made it a truly memorable experience. He offered to take so many pictures for me as I’m traveling solo. He knew the best angles and where to stand or sit. I learned a lot about Ayutthaya and I’m really glad I was able to see it. But I also touched the train and floated in a boat and saw both markets there. Highly recommended. Do not miss.

Ayutthaya Temples and More - Our kind guide, Joyce, was very considerate and informative. He ensured we were taken care of from the moment we were picked up. He adjusted the schedule to allow for the heat of the day. It is a full day - with a lot of driving between popular destinations. We enjoyed the temples, the floating market and train through the market. Lunch was very good as well. The temples were a must see for us - lots of great photo opportunities at all locations.

Skinny on the heat! - Here’s the skinny on the experience: delivered excellently and as described; if you aren’t used to a super hot climate, then you will be more than happy to take this tour- bus, lunch restaurant, tour guide “quick in and out” to save you from the stress of a heated climate and valued as - worth the money! Beware: you are headed towards places that are heavy tourist destinations- they are filled with hawkers, cheap souvenirs, and AC priced restaurants. But, the sights are that of Bond movies- exotic places- and are personally ranked as a photographer’s paradise. The tour guide (Joyce) was kind and sensible with a native’s awareness of the heat of the rainy season- moving the hottest part of the tour to the coolest part of the day (which we were thankful). A memorable and extremely comfortable tour - minus hawkers at markets (admittedly -it’s not the tour company’s fault but this visitor who detests hawkers). Additional brownie points, we asked to be let out on the way back to the drop off point (saving us grab fare / we walked to our hotel). All in all- fantastic!

A bit commercial but good value for the money - Our tour guide Joys was incredible, kind and he was taking care of everybody. However, the exclusion itself was a bit commercial, but that's normal for these kind of experiences. It's good to mark out of your list the three tourists spots
