4.00The tour through Ayutthaya was great, our guide Pat was really nice and very knowledgeable, it could be hard to understand him sometimes though because of the accent but nothing deal breaking. The restaurant were they took us to eat was pretty good as well. They took cash or card with a 3% fee, lunch was about 220 Baht per person with main dish and coconut water.

4.00Guide was friendly and helpful. The trip was very smooth and everything was on time. The only negative was that the van was a bit tight for space and the air conditioning did not work well.
Joyful learning with this tour

5.00Jack and our driver were great hosts and tour guide. Very informative and historically dense information. Light hearted and cheerful sense of humor throughout the experience. We received breaks and gentle guidance for drinking water and resting in the heat. We received culturally relevant guidance to enjoy maintain respect for each site. We spent just the right amount of time at each site to take in the information and enjoy but not be too overwhelmed by the longer tour commitment. Highly recommend taking this tour.

1.00If they assign you the company Trip Guru, it is better to ask for a refund. The company has rude guides who do not explain anything correctly. They showed no interest in helping us understand the cultural richness of the temples we were visiting.
Awesome tour!
