5.00Great tour for small groups wanting to see several temples in a short time. We were picked up directly from our hotel and loved being able to temple-hop comfortably with air-conditioning between stops. Lucky was fantastic—super knowledgeable about the temples, Thai kings, and history, and she shared everything in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. She also made sure we got great photos throughout the day. Highly recommend!
