This tour is very good value, there is no hassle in buying the tickets yourself, but it is much cheaper. The tour guide Nicky is really great. He can speak Chinese and English very well. He explains the historical background of each scenic spot in great detail. The whole itinerary is very smooth. I highly recommend this itinerary.

After visiting the monuments in Ayutthaya in one day, there were Japanese, Chinese and English tour guides who were very dedicated in explaining the historical stories of each scenic spot in different languages. It was very busy and the time at each point was tight. The temple buildings in this city are from the same period. Architecture, so they are all very similar!

Tour guide - Nicky, is a passionate, funny and responsibily bilingual tour guide. Explained the stories about each attractions well to us, but quite rush because we only have 30 mins to 1 hour (for Bang Pa-in Loyal) for each attractions. Will introduce to my friends.

Participating in this one-day tour can help us gain a deeper understanding of the history of the Ayutthaya Dynasty. Our tour guide Nicky is fluent in Chinese and English and is eager to help take photos. It’s just that there are many temples to visit, and the time is only 30-40 minutes. It is too little, and some scenic spots have no time to take pictures. It is recommended that the planning time of this one-day trip be longer so that there is enough time to visit the historical monuments of Ayutthaya. Bangba cannot be visited due to many buildings in the summer palace. Although it occupies a large area, it feels a bit empty when you can only admire it from the outside. There is a queue of one hour to stay here. I think it is mainly to allow tourists who rent golf carts to satisfy themselves for one hour. car rental time.

The itinerary is very good. The history of the scenic spots will be introduced in the car first, so you don’t have to listen while basking in the sun. The tour guide is also very professional, proficient in Chinese, English and Japanese, and switches very naturally!

The tour was so informative. If I have to suggest, maybe they could pick the most significant ones from the tour and skip the other temples. It was a little bit rushed but overall, it was still good. Our guide Nicky was also very entertatining.

we had the tour yesterday and it was a great experience we'll worth the money! the pick up at the hotel was smooth with the driver showing the sign wito our names at the lobby, the drive out of Bangkok was smooth and pleasant. the day is filled with various stops so it's quite hectic despite having time to visit each location properly. the driver was speaking basic English but we could understand each other perfectly fine, though he's not a guide so be mindful in case you are expecting someone talking through the trip about the history or anecdotes of each location. highly recommended the stops at the farm cafe, nice vibe and lots of instagrammable spots, as well as the river boat at sunset to get amazing pictures of one of the ayutthaya sites from the river with the sunset. The driver took a lot fo pics of us. highly recommended!
