Unforgettable Temple Tour and Boat Ride in Ayutthaya - The Ayutthaya temple tour was an incredible experience, offering a perfect blend of history and beauty. Exploring the ancient ruins of this UNESCO World Heritage site was truly captivating. One of the highlights of this tour though, was the amazing boat ride along the river that provided stunning views of the temples from the water. It’s a must-do for anyone visiting Thailand—I highly recommend it!

Our group was nice and... - Our group was nice and small, 15 people. Johnny, our guide had a good sense of humor and knowledgeable, explaining clearly about the sites and the history behind each. Boat ride was a nice treat at the end and enjoyed a nice Thai dinner to end the tour.

Interesting place to visit in Bangkok - Interesting place to visit and our guide tried to explain the significance of the site but we did struggle to understand. This might be helped by written literature. Boat ride and dinner was enjoyable.

An overall nice excursion with too long a journey by minibus - It was a good trip with a little too long arrival by minibus with a bad chassis. Please take some food with you because it takes until dinner from about 12.30 to 18.00.

Lucky our tour guide was... - Lucky our tour guide was amazing. We got picked up on time from our hotel and then driven to all the key highlights. Lucky was great at explaining and also great at taking our pictures. She kept pointing out the good spots. The dinner was also great and at a Michelin recommended restaurant. Only reason I gave it a four is one of the reasons we chose this is because it also mentioned Thai dance - however we didn’t see that at all. Everything else was great!

This was a nice way to... - This was a nice way to see some of the ruins and temples of Ayutthaya. Johnny did a great job providing information and made the excursion fun. The description of the tour was a bit misleading, as we only stopped at two temples. The third item listed in itinerary was only a pass by on the river. Good to know ahead of time to manage expectations.

Ok day - We enjoyed the boat ride and dinner on the River was good. We had a little trouble understanding our guide so only got a little of the history. Was still a good day but might have chosen a different activity if I had the chance to do over.

Can see why there are... - Can see why there are mixed reviews. The dance was literally just one girl just randomly doing it on our small boat. It was interesting to watch but a bit awkward. Dinner was decent, was a sort of help yourself type thing from shared plates in the middle of the table. You pay extra for drinks. We missed Wat Chakrawatrachawat. I don’t feel like the tour guide said very much. Overall pretty average tour. Like it’s cheap when considering it in GBP but considering prices you pay here, it seems pricy for what you get

Go to Ayutthaya with a different tour! Unimpressive guide and experience. - Would not reccomend. It wasn't horrible but I'm sure there are much better. Go to Ayutthaya but not with this tour. The bus was fine but a very long ride there and even longer bavck. All the stops were rushed. The guide spent more time telling us to hurry and get on the bus then she did about the history. They gave us one water bottle and when we asked if there was more she said no we needed to buy some so we did. But when we got back on the bus the driver gave everyone more water. The boat ride was pretty but shorten than the one hour promised. AND the advertised dancing was underwhelming. It was one girl for about 1 and a half minutes tops (literally how long the recording is). The restaurant was at a beautiful location but all the food was bland and they upcharged you for drinks. The tour guide did not tell us anything about the "traditional meal" we had and just left us once we got to the restaurant. She also got off the bus at the first stop and did not wait for us all to make it to our own stops. We got there okay but the driver did not speak English. AND Do not do in summer months. TOO HOT!
