I was guided by an experienced Thai-Chinese person who speaks Japanese. Besides learning about the historical background, it was great to have someone take photos for me, as my solo travel pictures tend to be mostly landscapes. Although it's the rainy season, it only drizzled occasionally, and there was no direct sunlight, making it comfortable. They even lent me an umbrella. On Sunday, the roads were clear, so we returned early. Lunch was a bit pricey, with tourist-level prices, but I didn't mind and enjoyed two beers with stir-fried morning glory in oyster sauce. Overall, it was a comfortable and good tour.

First of all the coach bus was big and comfortable and only half filled. we were given a bottle of water and a cookies. We have 2 guides for English and Mandarin groups. both were very experienced and helpful. We visited many temples and each were unique. overall will recommend this tour.

I was extremely pleased with this tour from start to finish. The itinerary and the sites were phenomenal and truly a must see for anyone coming to Thailand. Our guide Aoy is the one who really made it even better with amazing knowledge of every place we went to and the history and explanation for everything. I learned so much from Aoy I felt I received so much value out of it. Even beyond the sites, Aoy gave such good information and advice to everyone about all aspects of Thailand relevant for a tourist from food, customs, getting around, etc. The bus driver was also extremely friendly and professional. I highly recommend this activity.

Toto was an amazing guide! She was very helpful, kind, and friendly throughout the entire tour. Since it was just me on the tour, she made me feel very comfortable and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. She was great company throughout the journey, and I really appreciated all her help. I would definitely recommend Toto!

Our holiday tour group had exactly 12 people, and our guide, Xiao Yang, explained the attractions clearly and was very enthusiastic. The biggest advantage of this tour is that they always find a way to pick you up from your hotel, saving you the trip to a designated meeting point. On the return trip, you can also be dropped off at a specified location in the city, which is very convenient.
