A nice trip through ancient Thailand - The trip was amazing and super interesting. The tour guide, Ae, drove us around with a beautiful and comfortable car and did everything to make us have a good time. She was flexible with the program and adapted the tour to our requests. Thanks again!

Informative and Fun Tour of Ayutthhaya - We had a great time with Chutima on our tour. She helped us to understand both the history of Ayutthaya and the culture and history of Thailand as a country. We had a great and authentic Thai lunch and gained an enhanced appreciation for Thailand. I strongly recommend this tour as a convenient way to see some amazing and sights, learn some fascinating history and meet some very cool people.

Excellent guide, interesting program, easy to arrange, efficient operation - We took the Ayutthaya (Ayudhaya) tour with Siri (MS.Siriwaritsara Petcharapan) as our guide and Mr.Daeng as the driver. I booked the tour online very late the previous night, yet it all went without a hitch! The car with the guide showed up a few minutes before the appointed time at the hotel. I want to take the time to really appreciate how well they conducted this private tour, especially the superior guidance by Siri, and highlight those that impressed us very much: * Siri's command of the history and the region is comprehensive. During the drive from Bangkok to Ayudhiya, we were able to talk and understand a number of contemporary and historical events * Her communication and English are fluent, we were able to communicate easily * Mr.Daeng (sp!) is a safe efficient and courteous driver * Siri also seems very good at not just knowing where to take memorable pictures but takes a lot of them herself and sends to us. In addition to the ones we took, we got quite a few good ones thsi way After booking, I called the number listed for the tour operator (MAM Holidays) to give them mu local SIM number in case. The gentleman who spoke was also all efficient. In the morning , it was nice to get a call from him to say Siri and the car should be at the hotel and I can proceed to the lobby to get started. I am glad to recommend this tour without reservation. Thank you Siri and team

Also, made sure we were comfortable, had enough water, etc. She took us to an amazing local place for lunch.

Very Happy We Went - There were just two of us. Guide was friendly and enthusiastic about the sites and history. Very good driver and comfortable vehicle. Nice lunch too. More expensive than being part of a larger group would be but definitely worth it. Very convenient to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel.

Wonderful trip - Fantastic trip to Ayutthaya from Bangkok on Nov. 8, 2019. Much to my surprise this really was a private tour with just me, my tour guide and a driver. I am shy by nature and was a bit nervous at first about being alone the whole day with two people I had never met, but It wasn’t long before I felt very comfortable. My guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. She had many interesting stories about the history of the places we visited. She allowed enough time at each stop and even showed me some of the “off the beaten path” areas at some of the sites. I also learned many interesting facts about everyday life in Bangkok from her. Overall, it was well worth the price and I can’t imagine seeing these amazing places any other way.

Buildings may no longer be entered - Long clothes have to be worn in the Summer Palace, although the buildings can no longer be visited. Unfortunately, this was not communicated to us, nor can the golden Buddha be visited at all in the temple.
