Our bus driver also did a great job getting us to all of our points safely. I enjoyed seeing all of the sights and learning about this fantastic country.

Tour Guide - Great tour with William! He knows his history and also knows how to entertain the group. He sang for us at some point during our long drive to Ayutthaya. The train market, the floating market and Ayutthaya were all great destinations. We had a great time!

Lovely day out! - All in all very positive experience and nice lunch included. Guide was fun. Ample possibilities to use toilet and great communication with operator when my hotel address for pickup was not recognized.

WOW! A great way to set the tone for our trip! - WOW! This full-day tour absolutely set the tone for our trip in the best way. The company is well organized, the guides are knowledgeable, efficient, and welcoming, and the aspects of this tour are wonderful. Our guide (William) gave us history of each space, helped us be conscious and respectful of local customs, made sure we were where we needed to be and when to get the best views possible (like a prime sport at train market JUST before the train came), and gave us the perfect amount of time in each space. We were wondering what it would be like to be on a group tour, and it was really the perfect size. We met some really friendly folks from all over the world on this tour and still felt it was small enough to ask questions to our guide at any time. We learned so much! Also the included buffet lunch by the river is so delicious! Lastly, the meet up and drop off locations were easily accessible by public transport (subway and sky train), even for our very first time in Bangkok!

This was a great tour! We... - This was a great tour! We saw a great mix of sights, and it felt like we spent just enough time at each location. The lunch provided was great and there were plenty of food options. Our guide William was wonderful; he was very knowledgeable and spoke very good English (he was also funny). I also appreciated that there were frequent opportunities to use the bathroom throughout the long day. The bus also had good air conditioning.

Beautiful tour - Check-in is not as indicated at River City Coffe Club, but, on the same level around the corner, out of sight of the coffee club. Otherwise, the tour is well organized, with good guide in a proper bus. There is a lot of good information and all the questions have been addressed. I can recommend the tour.

Best package all in one experience - We never thought it was possible to have a marketing plan whilst floating on a boat. Truly unique and enjoyable. They have markets with nice souvenirs and restaurants too with tasty foods we tried chicken Paneng.

Value for money! So much to see all in 1 day - A full day packed with a lot! You can choose a hotel pick up if your hotel is in the areas offered otherwise you can catch a grab for $22-26 Thai baht to the meeting point. It’s a 630am start as you leave the city and head to the Maekong railway market, Damnoen Saduak Floating market and then to the temples of Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Siam. The Railway market is a cool experience with the train passing by at slow speed inches away from you. The markets have some cool arts and crafts to purchase or enjoy a coffee at one of the many cafes. Once at the floating markets you bored a Sampan where they take you along the canals where you can stop and purchase food or arts and crafts. You can even have your photo taken with a python, eeek! The ancient city of Ayutthaya was built in 1350 and lasted for about 670 years belonging to the Ayutthaya empire until it was burnt to the ground under order of the Burmese King. The place has been declared a UNESCO heritage site. We also made a couple stops- a coconut factory and orchid farm and lunch was included. Great value! Be prepared to spend 10-12 hours from start to finish. Our guide “Bird” was funny and informative. So much knowledge to share. Thank you 🙏

Very bad experience with Viator. - Tour operators neglected the responsibility, and missed the whole trip, and lunch that was supposed to include with the trip. As part of Viator Booking company did not have policies to protect customers.
