Such an interesting and colourful outdoor space, with beautiful flowers and so many wonderful elephants and shrines. Well worth a visit
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the colourful outdoor setting, the beautiful flowers, and the many elephant statues and shrines. Your kind words truly mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you again for another memorable experience in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
Arawan Museum is 11 km away from Ancient City, and you are on your own to get from one location to another. This package was very deceiving, and the walk from the Chang Awaran BTS skytrain takes about 15 minutes and is in a very bad part of town, leaving my husband and I feeling rather unsafe. Due to this, we missed Ancient City, and the buffet that we purchased. Arawan Museum is beautiful and we enjoyed it very much, so at least that part was great.
I bought a combination ticket but when I got to the ancient city the ticket was no good. A big disappointment. And I had to pay for another ticket
Thank you for your review, and we're truly sorry for the inconvenience you faced. Please note that this combination ticket requires selecting the correct option that matches the site you wish to visit. If the option wasn’t selected during booking, an additional charge will apply at the entrance. We understand this may have been disappointing, and we’ll review how to make this clearer during the booking process. Thank you for your feedback. Best regards, Oh Hoo Team
Online ticket cheaper than on site. You have to exchange the coupon for a paper ticket once you arrive but it's easy to find. Nice activity to take pictures (there is a small museum under the elephant base with AC if ever;) )
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Ancient City and Erawan Museum Ticket! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the visit and found the ticket exchange process easy. It’s great to know you had a good time exploring and taking photos, and we’re glad you found the museum under the elephant for a cool break! We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you again for more wonderful experiences. Best regards, Oh-Hoo Team
