I participated alone as a woman and had a great time! Depending on the area, they pick you up at the hotel, which made transportation easy. The tour efficiently covered the main sights with explanations, which was just right. The ruins were magnificent, and learning about their historical background was incredible. I didn't expect much from lunch, but it was delicious! There's an option to ride an elephant midway through the tour; you can do so for an additional fee. They also provided frequent restroom breaks and informed us which ones were free and which required payment, which was very helpful. Since it doesn't take up the whole day, you can go wherever you like in the evening. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to quickly see Ayutthaya. As a heads-up, it's extremely hot with almost no shade, so a parasol is essential. One bottle of water is provided, but it's not enough, so it's best to bring your own. I got a headache from the heat, but salt tablets saved me.
