As others have written, I hadn't seen any recent reviews and the website itself seemed a little suspicious (sorry!), so I hesitated to apply, but the tour itself was very good. When I applied, I entered the wrong email address and didn't receive a confirmation email, which made me more anxious, but they contacted me by phone, so I felt much more at ease. I couldn't find any other tours that visit four ruins with Japanese travel agencies, and most of them include an elephant ride as a must, but this tour was mainly about the ruins and was cheap, which was the deciding factor. The elephant was optional, and they would stop by if enough people wanted to ride, so you paid in cash on site. There were 12 of us, and we took photos of each other and had a friendly atmosphere. The guide was also nice, and was especially considerate when it came to the clean toilets, always telling us where the cleanest places were. I was very satisfied that we were able to visit the ruins I wanted to see efficiently and in a short amount of time after being picked up at 6:30 in the morning. Thank you!
We were late at the wrong meeting point, but this time we happened to be the only ones, so we were able to go around the tour without cancelling! Pep's Japanese explanation was easy to understand and he took many photos! I was able to ride an elephant! It was a lot of fun. It was a good memory. Thank you very much 😊

We met at 13:00, and we were able to prepare slowly in the morning and enjoy it! I decided to go on this tour because I thought I couldn't eat breakfast because there were many early morning gatherings on other Ayutthaya tours. I was lucky enough to have a guide with only my family of five, and I was glad to be able to see the sights at my own pace. Thank you, Mr. Papp, for the fun guide.

The conversation was fine, if not proficient in Japanese, and above all I was very polite and liked it. It was great to have each group take photos and teach them how to take photos.

Bangkok is my favorite area. People and places are really fun. When you participate in activities, you will find many encounters that you cannot usually meet. Moreover, you can go to areas where you cannot easily go by yourself. I think the fun group activities are tours with high quality tour guides and high satisfaction.
