Lovely and funny guide! But they didn't mention anything about the food we should have been able to pre-book on the bus. Would give 5 stars if some food alternatives were available on the bus, since the time for buying food at the temples were limited.

Yes, yes, 100% yes book this trip!! I loved it. Jong, the guide, had the most beautiful Thai energy. The temples were stunning, authentic, and should not be missed. The pace and flow of the trip was perfect. Even the 1.5 hour bus ride each way is fine, just bring your earbuds. One note, it does get very hot in April.

The history of Ayutthaya and the temples visited was very interesting. The tour guide was very pleasant and our transport was very comfortable. The tour was well organized, however the tour group too large making it almost impossible to hear anything the guide was telling us. Although advertised as a sunset boat trip, the timing of the tour meant we were on our way back to Bangkok by the time the sun set.

What an adventure, Johnny was an excellent guide. The temples were beautiful, our boat ride was cut short by a storm and torrential rain but all added to the truely enjoyable day.

The best part of the tour was Jom ("Johnny") who couldn't have been more knowledgable, funny, and hospitable. Ayutthaya actually contains hundreds of temples so this tour takes you to the highlights. Arriving to the last temple spot right as the sun was setting was the best part.
