Trip was fantastic the guide and driver where both very good, Bella and Ray both did fantastic job, Bella explained us throughout the tour ,took photos and made the experience worth ,telling others to get them as there guided tour
The day trip to Ayutthaya was completely worth it. The older capital of Thailand is reasonably close to Bangkok and has some of the most spectacular temples and palaces, with not one but two reclining Buddhas. 🙏🪷🙏 Our guide Kit was fabulous. He was knowledgeable, patient, courteous, and explained everything very well, answered our countless questions and took a million pictures. Ray, our driver, was excellent in navigating Thai traffic. We had a large van that was spacious. Highly recommend the tour. Your trip to Thailand will not be complete without going to Ayutthaya.
Kit's knowledge of history is incredible. He took our pictures with his phone and emailed them to us the same day. He had quite the artistic eye for photos.
Would have been great if more details about the trip had been available before purchasing. For example, the size of the car was luxurious but expensive for one person. Also, did not really want to see the Balin palace ground. Luckily guide cut it short.
We had an absolutely wonderful time with our guide Kit, we learned so much about the history and buildings as we went from site to site - highly recommend this tour! You won't be disappointed!
My girlfriend and I booked a private tour to Ayutthaya and had a fantastic experience. It was seamless from start to finish—getting picked up at our hotel in an AC SUV, having lunch and all entrance fees included made the day stress-free. Our guide, Kit, was excellent, offering clear historical explanations and, just as importantly, knowing exactly where to stand to get the best photos which my girlfriend really really appreciated! We felt genuinely cared for throughout the entire trip. Highly recommended for couples looking for a hassle-free, high-quality experience
Had an excellent private tour today with Ketsiree (Kate) and driver Jub. Pickup from my hotel was right on time. Kate spoke very good english and was very knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. The lunch spot was good and included in the tour price. Highly recommend this private tour if you don’t want to deal with a big group!
Amazing experience! Mr. Phacharakit Wichiwarakul (Kit) is GREAT taking pictures and they send the with high quality via email! Also we ate at a DELICIOUS place, great soup! Thanks for everything
Kit was an amazing guide and provided wonderful insights to a beautiful area of Thailand. I really feel we understood the country and its history so much better now. We started 15 minutes late, appreciated the message so we could wait in our room rather than the lobby. Thank you kindly for a wonderful day!!
Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We're glad your guide’s knowledge of the temples and religions made the tour special. It’s wonderful to hear he tailored the experience to your interests and abilities. We appreciate you sharing your positive experience and hope to welcome you again soon!
