Review of TripGuru’s small-group Ayutthaya tour from Bangkok, covering temples, Bang Pa-In Palace, transport, costs, guides, and practical tips.

“Ayutthaya day tour from Bangkok offered a great way to see the ancient ruins without much hassle. Reliable transport and a knowledgeable guide took us to main sites like Wat Phra Si Sanphet with its tall chedis and Wat Mahathat's famous tree-entwined Buddha head. Small group size (just 6 of us) meant better photo opps. Heat was tough in the afternoon, but umbrellas were available at each site to provide some much needed shade.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 335 reviews · from $52

Review of Ayutthaya’s sunset temple tour from Bangkok, with three historic sites, a shared heritage boat, transport, guide, fees, and practical tips.

“The information about this tour is not 100%. Upon arrival you receive a "goody bag" with some snacks and a bottle of water. Water is provided throughout also. The big issue is that Viator states the return to Bangkok time is 1830 when it is actually 1930. The guide we had (Chatyai) was excellent.”
