Donna our guide was absolutely fantastic. Transport was very prompt and efficient. Cruise was lovely and relaxing
We loved this trip! The guide was very knowledgeable and had a unique perspective as someone who grew up in Ayutthaya. The bus and cruise were so relaxing and a wonderful way to see more of Bangkok. The buffet lunch was delicious and they also provided free drinks waters and cool cloths for our comfort. Would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a luxurious day trip to Ayutthaya!
