Really worth seeing.

Beautiful grounds, really worth seeing! Be sure to rent a golf cart as it is very extensive. Something else.

Bigger than you think.

Excellent service & assistance with the locals at the Sian centre yo arrange the golf cart for us to view the entire area. It is massive & we were surprised how big the area was & thankfully we hired our own cart to get around in.

Lovely experience!

Amazing views. Make sure to get the golf cart. Try to see as many things as possible. Drinks and food not so great inside, maybe you are better of buying something at the entrance

A beautiful overview of Thai architectural culture

Beautiful place where you can discover the architecture of temples and houses from all over the country. However, we regret not being informed of the possibility of renting an electric scooter or a golfette to move around the park , the taxi system being totally inoperative...

Tram versus golf cart.

We had a very comfortable 40 minute drive to Ancient City. However, our driver had very limited English and we had a disconnect regarding how to best tour this venue. He signed us up for the tram and we should have gotten the golf cart, which would’ve been much more time efficient, flexible, and user-friendly - especially considering our time restraints. This place is worthy of a full day to see everything and we were allotted two hours. Very frustrating.

Operator response

We appreciate your feedback about your trip to Ancient City. We're glad to hear you found the drive comfortable. In Bangkok drivers are limited English only because if they have good English skill they will get good salary job here. Tram and golf cart are customer choice to visit inside the attraction and they can decide and purchase to go for. We understand your frustration about not being able to see everything due to the time constraints and the tram choice. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

A wonderful way to spend half a day in Bangkok.

A beautiful place to visit. Peaceful and relaxing. So many wonderful things to see and we enjoyed this tour very much. It was great to have the safety and security of a private driver who looked after us and arranged the tickets etc. Prompt and efficient in a comfortable air conditioned vehicle. We also enjoyed the buffet lunch included in our tour. We hired the golf cart so we could enjoy the place without too much walking. I'd accidentally booked for the wrong day (when we would have been flying home) and Viator fixed the problem and changed the booking for us easily. Have used Viator many times now and very happy with them.

Wouldn’t recommend to anyone

The only thing about this that went well was having a driver to go to and from. However, my driver didn’t know English so he was unable to help me when I ran into a problem upon arriving. No where in this listing did it state to bring your physical passport or drivers license with you to rent a golf cart, which of course was my plan. I was forced to opt for the tram option which only stops at a few spots with a massive group of people, and you’re given a set time to come back and left waiting for everyone else. When it comes to the “museum” itself I realllly disliked it. It’s a cheesy tourist trap with massive Korean boy band cut outs and big plastic monkeys, to me all the original, authentic, historical feeling had been sucked out and replaced. No to mention this place abuses elephants.

Beautiful Location and accommodating times~

We did not realize the ancient city was a big area. It was very beautiful. We even got to rent a golf cart to drive around to make sure we got to see everything. Our driver was on time and very accommodating. We always appreciate the companies picking us up from our hotel. It was a wonderful experience and would do again.
