Fantastic Experience

A fantastic trip with a very skilled and careful driver and Aey, the best possible guide. She was so knowledgeable and made it her mission to make me feel comfortable. I learnt so much about Thai history and even Bangkok. I really recommend to start the trip at 7 or 8 am, as the morning is the most peaceful time in Ayutthaya..

The van was clean, and comfortable and the driver was safe and patient with base traffic. I would strongly recommend this tour to everyone who has not been there, it was a very worthwhile experience. Lunch was good too!.

Great experience with tour guide Pond at Ayutthaya

Our guide Pond was very professional and knowledgeable. The detail and history provided definitely was worth the value of having a private tour when with this tour guide. Above and beyond our expectations we would have give more than 5 out 5 if we could. Would highly recommend to anyone else if wanting to do this tour and make sure you ask for tour guide Pond..

The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable of the site visited. We thought the tour would be in a small group with other tourists, but we were pleasantly surprised that it's a private tour.

Ayutthaya tour

This was a fantastic tour option, it was worth the extra money. We opted out of visiting the Grand Palace to visit the ancient city of Ayutthaya. I definitely recommend doing this tour instead of the Grand Palace if you only have time for one. Our driver and our tour guide, Mrs. Aey were amazing! They were completely attentive, full of knowledge and very polite. We visited probably around 5-6 temples with numerous structures and things to see. Water was provided throughout the trip and we had a nice buffet lunch. Mrs. Aey even volunteered to take photos of us. The vehicle we toured in was very clean and new, and the drive was not bumpy and very comfortable..

Fantastic tour

My wife and I booked this tour at the last minute late at night and were so glad we did. The following morning we were met promptly at our hotel by our tour guide called Siri. She was a Thai lady who could communicate very well in English and was well organised and very pleasant. Following a 1 hour drive, which included a planned comfort break we visited all the key sites in Ayutthaya which were visually breathtaking. Throughout the day our tour guide Siri was very knowledgeable and informative and knew all the best spots for photo opportunities. The buffet lunch also provided was excellent with plenty of choice. Overall a fantastic tour not to be missed and our thanks to Siri for being so friendly and professional..

Hot but inspiring

Hat, sunscreen and sunglasses are a must to enjoy your day. We especially enjoyed the summer palace and hearing the history of the ruins at Ayutthaya from our knowledgeable guide Ms A. We did have a little trouble understanding her soft voice, but she was more than willing to participate in our choices and level of activity in the high heat..
