Great overview of ancient temples - Pop is a very personable and knowledgeable guide, although sometimes I wasn't able to catch all the details due to his accent. He was more than happy to take good photos of us in front of the important statues or temples. He took us to a very nice restaurant on the river for a tasty and reasonably priced lunch. This tour of one palace and 4 temples was well worth the price. I would highly recommend it. The one thing I wish I'd known ahead of time is that for the palace I needed more than just to have my shoulders covered with the shawl that I brought. I needed sleeves, and so ended up having to buy a sleeved top from a vender nearby. Other than that, it was a great tour. Thanks Pop.

Breathtaking Temples Without the Rush - The temples were breathtaking, especially Wat Phra Si Sanphet and the reclining Buddha at Wat Yai Chaimongkul. I liked having the flexibility to stay longer where I wanted and not be tied to a group schedule. The driver was polite and patient, and the whole trip felt very easy. If you want comfort and freedom in one trip, this is perfect.

Must visit! - I really enjoyed this day trip! The mix of sites was amazing from the grandeur of Bang Pa-In Royal Palace to the peaceful riverside setting of Wat Chaiwatthanaram. The driver didn’t act as a guide but he made sure we got to each place comfortably and safely. Just remember to bring cash for entrance tickets and food. Overall, a very convenient and relaxing way to see Ayutthaya
