Wat Mahathat Temple is one of the oldest and most important temples in the history of Ayutthaya built in the late 14C. This temple is very famous because the great holy relics of Lord Buddha was once enshrined in the central prang tower and it’s the location of the sand stone buddha head embedded in the tree’s root which is the highlight of Ayutthaya province.
Wat Phra Sri Sanphet is world class famous because it is listed as the world heritage sites recognized by the UNESCO in 1991 and it was the most important temple in the golden era of Ayutthaya kingdom as it was the royal chapel of the palace used for the religious functions of Ayutthaya Kings and it is considered as architectural prototype of the Emerald Buddha temple in Bangkok
Vihara Phra Mongkhon Bophit is located to the south of Wat Phra Sri Sanphet Temple. A bronze Buddha image, Phra Mongkhon Bophit, inside the hall could be dated to the 15th century. The Buddha image is 12.45 meters in height and 9.55 meters in width at the lap span.

The tour was excellent! From the moment we contacted the agency, they were very flexible and allowed us to change the itinerary and pick us up from two different hotels that weren't very close. Our host, Miss Som, was extremely kind, patiently answered all our questions, and allowed us to make the stops we requested. Her recommendations were excellent. They provided us with all the water we needed, delicious coconut ice cream, and mango sticky rice. It was a lovely day, with practically all the places to ourselves. Excellent communication, punctual, clean, and attentive. I highly recommend it!
The tour offers variable experience, riding on a boat for floating market, watching a train passing a crowded market, visiting temples.

Words cant express how wonderful our trip was to the original floating market and the ancient city of Ayutthaya. We learned a lot and saw so much things that we only dreamed of seeing one day and this tour made that happened for us. But the most important thing about this tour was the professionalism of our tour guide Angie for her hospitality, kindness and knowledge about the tour. She even let us personalized the tour to accommodate our wishes of renting a Thai costume to take pics in the ruins. Special shout out also to our driver Peter for keeping us safe. Highly recommended!!!!! If you decide to take this tour book Angie, she is such a nice guide and the best hands down!!!!

We took the whole family on this tour and Bee was absolute magic. Traveling with kids and seniors can be a lot, but the van was incredibly spacious and the AC was ice-cold a total lifesaver! After walking through the Railway Market, stepping back into that cool van with the chilled water Bee had ready for us was heaven. Ayutthaya was stunning, and the kids actually stayed engaged thanks to Bee

If you want to see everything in one go, this is it. Tina was a champ, navigating us through the chaos of Damnoen Saduak. Pro tip: try some local food on the boat it really adds to the experience! The market itself has a huge variety of souvenirs, so it’s a great place to pick up gifts and local products. By the time we arrived Ayutthaya, the atmosphere was incredibly peaceful, a perfect contrast from the lively morning markets. Such a well-balanced and memorable day!

My husband and I were unable to book excursions with our travel tour in Bangkok. Our solution was to book a private guide and driver. Angie and AJ were excellent. Angie was very knowledgeable and patient. She knew the shortcuts at train street and all of the best photo spots at each location. What started as a travel snafu ended up as a lucky break. We got to see more than we would have with our travel tour’s excursion. Angie and AJ exceeded our expectations!
