We had a wonderful time learning about the beautiful temples in Ayutthaya. The schedule of the tour was just enough so we can take time in exploring the different temples. Capping off the tour at Jodd Fairs is also a great way to reenergize ourselves, though we were given the option to be dropped off at a different location if we prefer. What made the tour more memorable is our tour guide, Ploi who displayed enthusiasm in sharing the stories behind the temples we visited. She was also accommodating of our requests — bringing us to a rental shop so we can try on tradition Thai clothing and to another local shop so we can taste the famous dessert called Roti Sai Mai. Highly recommend this tour and our lovely tour guide ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you don’t want to get up early in the morning, this is the best choice! Because we flew to Bangkok in the middle of the night, it would be too hard to get up at 7 or 8 in the morning. This group departs at 12 noon, so you can fully sleep before playing! Gather at the place opposite Gate 1 of Siam Paragon Shopping Mall. Get on the bus at the door and set off. The journey will take about 1.5 to 2 hours to reach the first attraction. We will visit four ancient temples during the whole journey. Each place has about 40 minutes to 1 hour to visit, which is enough. We will return around 5pm and arrive back in the city at around 6:30pm. We will also disband at Siam Paragon, so we can continue walking around the area after the show, or go to the night market or Chinatown, which is plenty of time. The tour guide Tom is very professional, but since all explanations have to be given once in Chinese and English, sometimes it feels a bit repetitive, but there is nothing you can do about it, after all, there are tourists from all countries.

Organized tour, meet up point easy to find, lively and approachable tour guides. Bring extra cash for additional expenses such as golf cart rental in the palace.

Ayutthaya is a very cultural place. If you want to see what the ancient ruins in the former capital of Thailand looked like after the war, I highly recommend you to visit. It is very cost-effective to visit five or six ancient ruins in one day! The tour guide Awan is very nice and the service is very good!

Our guide did a great job explaining each temple’s significance. He gave us plenty of time to wander and explore each site. The Bang Pa-In complex is beautiful, and the Atutthaya ruins are impressive. Lunch is at your own expense, but portion sizes are massive.
