Great day trip - I had a great experience! The tour group was small (8 people) which was better for going quickly from site to site. We visited 4 places overall and were on the excursion from 8 am - 4 pm. Kevin was our tour guide and he was very nice and knowledgable!

2000 temples and an “English” summer palace - A great day with lots of information but also time to wander through the temples soaking in the atmosphere. Kevin and Mr Pho kept us smiling on a 38 degree day

The Best Way to Discover Ancient Thailand 🛕✨ - We had a fantastic experience visiting Ayutthaya UNESCO with our guide Jack 🛕✨ He is very knowledgeable and brought the history and stories of Thailand to life in a clear and engaging way, answering all our questions. This is a must-do if you enjoy history and ancient civilizations. Jack also showed us the best spots for great photos, which made the visit even more special. What really stood out was his passion for sharing his culture, he made the whole experience meaningful. Jack is an amazing guide, and I truly wish him all the best 🙏✨

Excellent tour from Bangkok. Highly Recommend! - Eddy was a excellent host on this iconic tour. At each stop he interjected excellent history along with shared stories of the inhabitants. Each stop was well timed and the tour itself was well worth the time.

Great Tour. Book with Cherry. - I had Cherry as my guide. She’s full of info and history. She made sure I enjoyed my experience by buying bread so I could feed the fish and turtle. She also got a musical toy for me too. The driver was also very nice and kind. They shared their snacks with me on what was not only a long drive, but also hot. Would recommend.

Amazing history and ruins on a super hot day. - It was a visually nice and historical trip to learn more about ancient times of Thailand. We really enjoyed walking through the ruins. However, it was an extremely hot day which made it difficult to thoroughly enjoy. Our tour guide seemed very bothered by the heat as well and therefore didn't seem super enthusiastic about the tour. Although the tour said they would provide cold water to us, we seemed to be limited to just one bottle. More refreshments would have been ideal especially given the hot weather. We invited the tour guide and driver to accompany us at our table when we ate lunch but they declined. Overall it was a good trip to see amazing ruins. Convenient to have a driver and tour guide vs doing it on your own. I don't think it would have been an easy trip from Bangkok without a driver and guide.

A very complete tour! - Very personalized tours. We were only 3 pardons. The very friendly guide, explained well., the only thing I didn't like, is that he took us to eat at a restaurant, he ate and then left and we had to pay for his food.
