Ayutthaya Glittering Sunset, Heritage Cruise, Noted Sights & Food

Amazing Temple Tour

Johnny is such a fun and amazing guide! Despite the extremely hot weather, he made the tour so pleasant. Thank you to Johnny for the wonderful hospitality!

Well worth your time to participate in this extremely informative tour!

It was a little hot walking down to the hotel for the tour pickup as the tour bus doesn't come to the individual hotels of customers. It took over an hour to get outside of Bangkok, but it was certainly worth it. My tour guide was very animated and engaging as he led us around three major pagoda temple areas followed by a sunset boat ride. Unlike several other temple areas that I visited, the temple areas were extremely old in age but still in good condition. I learned a lot from this tour!

Very enjoyable excursion with a knowledgeable guide, Johnny, who has a great sense of humor.

Johnny was very professional, answering all our questions, providing much history of the Ayutthaya city. The schedule worked well. The boat ride to the last temple was fun. The second boat scheduled was not available, but a replacement was quickly found, such that no time was lost.

Fun guide and informative!!

Our guide, Jom had great energy, the occasional salacious joke, and kept the group inclusive - he would wait for us to congregate before explaining about certain spots. He also kept everything going with a smile! Truly energetic and a wonderful trip to see temples you wouldn’t normally see in Bangkok. Would recommend to others seeking a getaway from the city life!

Worth doing

A big air-conditioned bus, every seat filled, took us from a central meeting place. The tour felt a bit rushed, but the guide was good and knew his stuff. It was worth it to see Ayutthaya! The river ride was scenic and they gave us bread to feed the fish.

Slightly misleading and rushed tour

Not the best of trips if I’m to be honest but you need to make your own minds up, however not one id recommend, expensive for not a lot… Definately no food, as others have suggested, and you definately do not see what’s showing on the picture, we looked hard to find at the end of the trip. Somewhat misleading and the whole trip felt a bit rushed. From start to finish done in 6 hrs and not the 7 as stated..

Great tour

This was a great tour with a friendly and helpful guide. The temples were beautiful and boat ride a fun way to cool off a little, arriving at the final temple just as the sun was setting.

Overall great trip!

Bus was air conditioned and comfortable. The temple ruins were absolutely beautiful. The river cruise portion was enjoyable, nice to get a break from the sun, enjoy the breeze, and feed some fish. Dinner was included, even though the description says otherwise... I was a little irritated at this, only because the meal was previously decided... not a select menu, and that my husband and I had a late, and heavy lunch, as we were anticipating not eating until after our tour. Good thing we didn't have dinner reservations elsewhere! Our tour guide Johnny was great! He was informational and also funny. $116 and change, for 2 adults, definitely worth the money!

Temples, Temples and Temples…oh my!

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The temples were amazing! If you want to climb the steep stairs to the top of one, be prepared. Stairs are steep, but this 60 yo woman made it with no difficulty. We were served a small portion of Pad Thai for dinner which I would consider only average. The views from the river as the sun set behind some of the temples were beautiful. Great photos were captured! I would recommend this tour if you want to see ancient temples dating back hundreds of years. Susan, our guide, was excellent!

Great experience - highly recommend!

Definitely worth it and I highly recommend this well organised adventure to delve into the history of Thailand! The sunset arrival was so perfectly timed! Thank you to our knowledge guide, Susan!

A must!

Ken was a very attentive guide. Arriving at the last temple by boat and seeing it at sunset and with the lights after dark truly is a unique experience.

Ayutthaya is beautiful, and this tour allowed us to enjoy it in just a few hours.

The sunset tour was the highlight, in a small boat on the river with fantastic photo opportunities, but to this add the beautiful palace, the Golden Buddha, the giant ancient reclining Buddha, the Buddha in a tree miraculously intact after five centuries, and the history of Ayutthaya related by our competent guide to make the place come alive. Travel to and from Bangkok takes over an hour each way, but in the air-conditioned comfort of the provided car time went by quickly.

Great boat tour

Spectacular!! We are so glad we did this boat tour, breathtaking! The tour guide was helpful and considerate, went out of her way to help us

Ayuthaya,Tailand

Perfect boat sightseeing and Ayuthaya temples visitation with our so kind tour guide Lin!! We are deeply thankful!

Perfect trip!

Tour guide, Pailin, was super friendly and very knowledgeable. Learnt a lot. Perfect amount of time for looking around the different sites, and the river boat ride was a wonderful way to end it. Would highly recommend!

Brilliant Tour let down by inaccurate itinerary

Brilliant additional tour to take whilst staying in Bangkok. Arrived at our hotel on time in mini-van. Really friendly and informative tour guides. We drove to the first Temple site in Ayutthaya which was beautiful and one of the guides was happy to take photographs for us. We then drove to the river to board the river boat for our cruise which was terrific, passing village life beside the banks and seeing many temple structures along the way. As sunset approached we arrived at our second temple site where we had time to explore. We were then taken to a restaurant for a very nice early evening dinner complete with a rice desert. Unfortunately the trip was marred when told that this was the end of the trip and that we would be driven back to our hotels - our trip did not match the tour itinerary as sold to us and everyone was EXTREMELY disappointed to learn that we would not be visiting the Reclining Buddha at Wat Loykaya Sutha or the 'Buddha head in tree' at Wat Maha That Temple.

Gaito is wonderful! Recommended for those who want to get around Ayutthaya efficiently

The guide's older brother was very kind and I felt relieved just seeing his smiling face. Thai people's smiles are really nice. I was able to visit the main tourist spots in Ayutthaya at a good pace. It was a 45 minute boat ride, but looking at the restaurants and shops along the river reminded me of the way people lived in Ayutthaya in the past. Although the tour is in English, I think you can enjoy it as long as you have basic English skills.

A nice visit but our guide wasn't great

The places visited are interesting but our guide did not impress us. She was very kind and smiling but she didn't give us much information. His level of French was really not very good. We generally had a pleasant time and the boat trip at the end of the day was perfect!

No words to describe Ayutthaya

Una bellissima esperienza! Non si può andar via dalla Thailandia senza aver visto Ayutthaya... Ma vederla al tramonto è qualcosa di eccezionale. Rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo

満足度100%

クーラーの効く車で快適な旅になりました。サンセットにあわせてのクルージングも川側から見る遺跡もとても幻想的で良かったです。送迎付きでは無かったけど、通り道だと言うことで、ホテルまで送迎して頂きとても助かりました。
