Amazing tour - PIYA is an amazing guide، he shows us the best temples and the best spot to take a picture. I liked the most that he spend the full day with us explaining and giving date and details of the temples. The pickup and drop off was in time and the restaurant suggested was delicious.

Very good trip with best guide Piya - We had an excellent trip to Ayuttahaya with guide Piya. Full day of visiting templates, with a break for the lunch. Piya was the most involved guide i've ever had. He shared with us so much knowlegde, not only about the history of templates or Ayuttahaya, but also of Thailand in general, its history and tradition. Really great trip, i highly recommend it especially with Piya, cause without him i dont think if I would have the same experience.

A nice day tour - We went on a tour with Piya, who was a knowledgeable guide with great energy. He gave us a lot of information about the sights and helped us take unique photos. The lunch was okay, nothing to complain about but a little overpriced

Beatifull Ayutthaya trip - I recently joined a tour to Ayutthaya guided by Piya. The tour was exceptionally well-organized. Piya’s knowledge of Ayutthaya's history and his passion for sharing it made each stop on the tour feel truly meaningful. Piya did a fantastic job not only explaining the history of Ayutthaya's temples and ruins but also providing insights into Thai culture, traditions, and the country's broader historical context. His explanations were clear and engaging, bringing the history to life in a way that was easy to understand and enjoy. He welcomed all our questions, and it was clear he genuinely cared that we left with a better understanding of Thailand. On top of being an exceptional guide, Piya also helped capture our journey with beautiful photos. Each picture he took captured the spirit and beauty of Ayutthaya perfectly. I highly recommend joining a tour with Piya.

Great experience! - Very cool trip, can recommend! We visited 5 temples I believe, and the last one we all felt a bit tired, so maybe the first 4 would have been enough! We took the 10 am trip and I think we were back at around 6 PM, so it is truly a full day. Bring snacks if you get hungry, because the lunch was quite late in the day

Nice site, long Hot Day - The bus was comfortable with AC. Our guide, Jom, was pleasant and explained a bit about the historic site. The commentary lacked context regarding the battles that were fought over the city. With a large group, we often couldn’t hear Jom when she spoke. Sadly, the large Buddha in The temple was covered in scaffolding and plastic so we couldn’t see it. Then we went to see the reclining Buddha. It was also covered with scaffolding. The buffet on the boat was okay. I would have preferred to skip the boat ride and drive back to the city. The morning heat (93 degrees) was exhausting and we didn’t see many things on the river. Jom provided metrics of the bridges when we passed under them but not any exciting stories.
