Bonnie was a wonderful tour guide! We were so impressed and would recommend her very highly! She was knowledgeable and very fun and took the most amazing photos of us! Thank you so very much Bonnie!
Nancy gave us a wonderful full day guided experience! We had many questions throughout the day. Whether it was about history, the temples and structures we visited or Buddhist beliefs or history, she was exceptionally well informed and offered insightful answers with an inspiring reverence for Thai culture. Thank you, Nancy—we had an absolutely wonderful time!
Nancy was informed, happy, and accommodating. She kept the tour moving at a steady pace and allowed us time to ask questions and investigate things we found interesting.
Very good, markets and temples
Good visit to see the unique architecture of the temples and to see the nice Royal Palace. Kevin our guide was very sweet
The guide was nice and helpful. The transportation was comfortable for 4 people. The sites were interesting. The guide's English was a bit hard to understand sometimes, but we appreciated he was trying, and we were able to communicate fine. The sites we went to were nice and interesting, but some of them were very similar to each other, so it was not as interesting towards the end of the day.
G was a very knowledgeable and helpful guide. His English was pretty good and he helped us navigate ordering food and interacting with people who don't speak English.
Jeerawat was a great guide and made our experience great, definitely would do again!
Couldn’t have asked for a better day, definitely worth doing.
Our tour guide jack was excellent in giving us the history of ayutthaya. Thank you for the experience. See you again!
We made the tour with Boy an amazing guy, always happy and excited to explain you about the thailandese culture. We absolutely recomend this tour, specially if you are not only interested in monuments but also in the story behind it.
Ying made sure we got there before crowds would arrive. She had good info about the places.
Very good. Our guide Rach also very nice :)
Really great experience for a morning tour of Thailand’s ancient capital city with my guide Cherry. I wanted to have one last unique experience in Thailand before departing home in the evening, and this tour was perfect. We left my hotel in the Siam area at about 7 AM, arrived to Ayutthaya at about 8:15 AM, toured many temples, got tons of history, and was able to eat an early lunch at about 10:30 AM before heading back to Bangkok. This trip doesn’t need to take a full day, and with an experienced guide like Cherry (who grew up in Ayutthaya) you can see all of the major sites in the most efficient order, all before 12 PM.
Chayada Cherry was the greatest tour guide. She made sure we ok and understood the history of the temples. Highly recommend her to be your tour guide.
Had a great time with Jackie. He was a great guide. Enjoyed exploring all places.
Great experience with my guide Thai. He explained each temple very well.
Jeewat was an amazing tour guide! The tour did not feel rushed at all even though we visited a total of 5 temples and had a delicious lunch break. Although lunch was not included, it was relatively inexpensive and super yummy. Our tour guide explained the history of everywhere we were at and gave us ample free time to explore on our own. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in history, Buddhism, and wants to see awesome sights/temples.
The guide, Niranya, was very informative. She makes sure you are enjoying your trip. She takes you to a wonderful restaurant for a Thai lunch.
Great day! Great guide! Delighted to have visited Bangkok!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very friendly guide that gave allt of good information and always smiles. Thank you
Beautiful temples and ruins. Great driver got us there in a timely and safe manner. So hot here even in the Spring!
Kuhn Tank is a great guide, very professional, polite and professional. I strongly recommend him.
We did a private tour and it was all in all a very nice trip, we really enjoyed the beautiness of this ancient capital of Siam together with our guide.
We go to Ayyutaya with Ying. The experience was good. (I would like to change the place to luch, it was not good at all). The rest of the tour was ok.
Great tour, covered many historical sites. Eddy was great, he was knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating.
Knowledgable & kind guide + good driver. Saw many amazing sites in Ayuttaha. Enjoyed the private tour
I had a full day tour with Pop. He was excellent. Very knowledgeable about Thai history. Also extremely flexible with the tour. We had a wonderful experience
The guide had a lot of data for us about the various kings of the past centuries and the respektive Pagodes and Temples. We had an interesting and very informative day! We thank her for her Enthusiasmus!
We took a private tour to Ayutthaya and the experience was great. The guide Mark and the driver Yai were excellent, very attentive and friendly.
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and never made us feel rushed, and always checked if we were comfortable or in need of anything during our trip. He also knew all the best angles for photos. We had a great experience and would recommend this tour if you have never gone before!
Nice tour, dispite of the heat. Tour guy was friendly and patient.
What a great day. Pop was so knowledgable and had a great energy. He and our driver were flexible and accommodating to our requests.
We had a fantastic experience on this private Ayutthaya tour. Our guide, Tank, was knowledgeable, friendly, and very well organized, sharing interesting historical insights while keeping the day relaxed and enjoyable. We felt well taken care of throughout the tour. We were traveling with our 10-year-old daughter, and she enjoyed the tour as well — the comfortable pace even allowed her to take a short nap in the car. The driver was also excellent – professional, safe, and made the long day very comfortable. Everything was well planned, smooth, and stress-free. We were able to see many important sites without feeling rushed. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a high-quality, well-organized private tour.

Great tour with a very knowledgeable guide. Safe driver as well. Sites were fantastic and enough time at each one to enjoy the experience (didn't feel rushed)
Tour was great, guide went out of his way to be helpful. His English needs some improvement, but it is functional. highly recommend our guide (moc) if you are not too picky on English fluency. he was supper attentive and at the end of the day took us via metro and bts to the place where we wanted to go. Very nice gesture. ayuthaya tour was well planned, logistics worked out well and the place where we had lunch was nice (not fancy, but food was good and price was very affordable)
Had a very informative and enjoyable day with thanachoa ewy. He was a great guide who fully explained everything and went at my own pace. Highly recommend for anyone interested in a private tour.
Nancy was a fantastic guide. Very knowledgeable and helpful. She helped to organise a vegan lunch for us. Overall, the day was great and I would highly recommend.
Brilliant driver. Incredible knowledgeable. We travelled with our one year old daughter and the trip was very baby friendly. Highly recommended!
Jeerawat was a fantastic guide. He was thorough and offered much more history than we otherwise would have known. There is no way we would have been able to see so many sites in a day without the private tour. Highly recommend. Plan to spend about an additional $80thb pp, per site for entrance fees.
Bonny was an amazing tour guide who gave us a very thorough tour around the attractions, very friendly as well. Would def come back again.
We enjoyed with Mr Pop- he took care of everything for us from the temples, to elephant ride, to dropping us at the train station.
Had so much fun throughout the whole day, such a nice tour guide, he was so excited to show us around. Ayutthaya is so cool, wishing to come back with my family someday.
Bonnie, our guide, was absolute amazing. She picked us up from our hotel and drove us safely to each destination. She had a lot of knowledge and was very funny! Brought us to a great place for lunch as well. If you are interested in this site, highly recommend
She is awesome and really took care of us. Explaining all the history and how the ruins of are taken care off. Perfect tour we definitely recommend her.
The experience was awesome, especially the guide's wide knowledge about the Royal family and t he their contribution to the construction of the huge city and temple complexes of Ayutthaya. The guide is awesome too. The ticket prices were not much but the electric vehicles should be more in number and free for senior citizens like us.
This tour was super fun! Bring a lot of water because it’s hot! and plenty of cash for entrance into the temples. The ruins are stunning.
Good experience to do when you go to Bangkok. Pop is very funny and an excelent guide master. We have enjoyed the trip a lot.
My wife and I had such an amazing Bangkok tour with Jeerawat! He was so friendly and knowledgeable and made our first day in Thailand on our honeymoon so special. We went to Chinatown, on a longboat, to Wat Pho and to the weekend market and he had such great detail and personalized recommendations for everything we saw. We would highly recommend, and would love to tour with him again!!
