Itinerary
Wat Chaiwatthanaram is a Buddhist temple in the city of Ayutthaya Historical Park, Thailand, on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, outside Ayutthaya island. It is one of Ayutthaya's best known temples and a major tourist attraction
Wat Lokayasutaram is located at Tambol Pratuchai, Amphur Pranakornsriayuttaya, Pranakornsriayuttaya. The location is near the Royal Palace and Wat Prasrisanpetch which are both the centers of the Ayuttaya Kingdom. Therefore, this is another important temple in Ayuttaya. This temple has another name called Wat Pra Norn. Inside the temple, there is the biggest reclining Buddha in Ayuttaya.
The well known image of the Head of the Buddha, with tree trunk and roots growing around it.
Wat Phra Si Sanphet (Thai: วัดพระศรีสรรเพชญ์; "Temple of the Holy, Splendid Omniscient") was the holiest temple on the site of the old Royal Palace in Thailand's ancient capital of Ayutthaya until the city was completely destroyed by the Burmese in 1767, during the Burmese–Siamese War.

Pick up and viewing ok but not returned to the hotel as stated in the delivery directory. We had no information that the terminus is the MBK Center. In addition, the Tiket not delivered by email.
Wonderful everything. Italian guide kind and prepared. Comfortable mini vans Attentive to every need of the tourist On time Everything perfect
Itinerary lies!!! The guide does not stop at Chaiwatthanaram, although the tour announces it as the 1 stop. Result: you won't see THE THING not to be missed! It is only briefly visible from a distance. What a disappointment! I lost 80 euros. No but frankly, who would visit Rome without going through the Colosseum?! So basically with this tour you see everything EXCEPT the most important, and what else I paid for the tour. Itinerary lies, to avoid.
Dear client, you booked the excursion that includes a return to Bangkok on a river cruise, which, since boarding is scheduled for around 12:00, does not allow you to see all the temples of Ayutthaya. If you had booked the classic minivan excursion, you would have also seen the Chaiwatthanaram temple, which, I should remind you, is a reproduction of the Angkor temples, built after 1630 and therefore not part of the history of the ancient Siam capital, Ayutthaya.
This tour was wonderful! Our guide Odi did an amazing job in keeping us fully engaged as we toured the ruins of the ancient temples of Ayutthaya. She was very knowledgeable and personable. She answered all of our questions and was spot-on in finding us the best possible photo angles to shoot from. We truly ejoyed spending the day with Odi in Ayutthaya!
Beautiful tour, organized very well (not to be done on January 1st as a local holiday)... we woke up late and had to reach the group by taxi but the local guide "emme" waited for us and made up for lost time.
The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable and was able to move at our pace. The tour guide even gave our son a little elephant toy as a souvenir. He absolutely loved it. We all had an amazing time! Would definitely recommend going with them to see the city.
We relied on InnViaggi for our honeymoon (so a really important trip for us) and we were really impressed by the organization. 4 nights in Bangkok with tours organized every day in detail, transfer to Chang Rai and Chang Mai for another 5 nights and guided tours also in this case. We also met our special last-minute need to allow us to see the characteristic points of Bangkok in the evening in a completely different light. Journey ended with 5-star stay in the Maldives. A dream. Thanks to all the guys at InnViaggi who made this possible. Highly recommended
Worse experience ever! I should have spotted it since the first mail exchange with Christian, not-polite, not accommodating, slow replies. Despite this I booked a customised tour with them for three days. None of the things discussed and agreed happened: the tour guide did not know about our customised tour, and I had to show all emails and texts, which made me feel really uncomfortable. When I contacted Christian for the day after, to make sure we avoided this situation with the guide, he never replied. The agency did not know that Wat Arun was closed and that Lopburi was not recommended to visit. Despite this they included (and charged us for) these stops and when we realised it was not possible to make these, no alternative was offered. Christian never replied to any email. Poor quality of the service. Davvero poco professionalità e scarsa qualità del servizio. Ciò che è stato discusso non è stato mantenuto. Non abbiamo mai ricevuto risposta da Christian quanto i vari inconvenienti si sono verificati. Nessuna possibilità di contatto. Nessuna scusa per il disservizio. Se non volete la vostra vacanza rovinata, non affidatevi a loro.
Il Wat Arun e' stato chiuso a causa di una parata della famiglia reale e nessuna agenzia era stata previamente informata. In alternativa la nostra guida vi ha fatto visitare il Tempio di Marmo, China Town ed anche il rooftop del Bayoke. Dpo avere visitatao l'antica capitale Ayutthaya come da vostra richiesta siete state condotte a Lopburi per visitare il Tempio delle Scimmie. Una volta sul posto pero' vi siete spaventate dal grande numero di scimmie e non siete volute scendere dal minivan... cosa avremmo dovuto fare ? Christian purtroppo non e' stato presente in ufficio in questi giorni a causa di un grave lutto in famiglia. In conclusione, riteniamo la sua recensione non veritiera ed anche inopportuna. Wat Arun was closed due to a royal family parade and no agency had been previously informed. As an alternative, our guide took you to visit the Marble Temple, China Town and also the Bayoke rooftop. After visiting the ancient capital Ayutthaya as per your request, you were taken to Lopburi to visit the Monkey Temple. Once there, however, you were scared by the large number of monkeys and did not want to get out of the minivan... what should we have done? Unfortunately, Christian was not present in the office these days due to a serious bereavement in the family. In conclusion, we believe your review is untrue and also inappropriate.
Our tour was customized to what we wanted to see and do. We skipped the elephants because of long lines but opted for pictures in Thai clothes (fun to do). Guide was knowledge and let us go at our own pace. I recommend this tour of the sites of Ayutthaya.
We have been here several times and we still found it very nice and beautiful to see and the UNESCO World Heritage Center
