The tour itself was really good and it was great to learn about the history from experienced guides. Lunch was pretty simple. Pity about the terrible booking experience and meeting point experience. Tour operator was giving the wrong instructions about the meeting point, and seemed really disorganised. Communication was really poor causing a lot of frustration and confusion. While I enjoyed the tour itself, I wouldn’t book with this tour operator again.

We had a wonderful day and learned a ton about the history of Thailand and Ayutthaya from Mai. We were a small group, which was ideal, and kept a good pace with clear meeting times when we broke off on our own. Bonus, we found out Mai spoke a little Spanish in addition to English, which made for a fun day of word play between Thai, English, and Spanish. The value was absolutely there for the price and Mai was even sending us photos via WhatsApp during the drive between tour stops. We've done self-guided and had some great guides through tour companies throughout our two week holiday, but Mai was the best!!
