Spend about nine hours visiting Bang Pa-In Palace and five Ayutthaya temples with an English-speaking guide. Expect a small group, air-conditioned transport, hotel pickup in selected Bangkok areas, and a thoughtful route through Siam’s former capital.

“The tour was spoilt by the mediocre knowledge of our tour guide. We visited very beautiful and sacred places in Ayutthaya, however, we left with almost 0 knowledge on them. The speech of the guide was almost impossible to understand and he didn’t understand well our questions (in English), with too many gestures and a lack of substance. We felt very sad, given the importance of the sights that we were visiting for understanding Thailand and its history. Still giving this tour 3 stars for the punctuality of the driver.”
