We enjoyed the tour and really appreciate our guide/driver despite a bit of language barrier. He is nice and very much helpful. He made sure we were safe and ok during the tour. Nice experience including the interaction with elephant at a cafe! Thanks P’Toy!

Availed of this Ayutthaya tour package with my senior parents. I enjoyed the tour very much. In my opinion, they have picked the more culturally significant tourist spots that adequately showcased the rich history of Ayutthaya. Our tour guide, Mr Jeerawat Muangyoo gave sufficient information about each temple or site we visited without being too overwhelming. I also appreciated that there were a lot of resting opportunities for my parents during the tour. They also mentioned that their company, Trip Guru, is actively working on operating in sustainable and eco-friendly ways, which I was happy I could support.

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.

They’re so accommodating. The driver and the tour guide are very very nice and since I’m going there solo, they were so nice to take my photos and even suggested where and how to pose. 🥺🫰

jack, our tour guide, was amazing. he knew so much about thailand's history and we got fun little tidbits also in how everything connects to modern life. highlights would be the cafe at the perimeter of the temple, climbing the pagoda where you can go in, offering a lotus a flowet to the reclining buddha the chance sighting of elephants passing through. they give out free water but be prepared with more since we tended to get a drink at every stop due to the heat. bus is comfortable and cool so pleasant experience overall.
