1.00I reserved this tour for my family and I but I needed to change the date of the tour because of a work situation and when 2 months before the tour original date I tryed to move forward the date of the tour, this people quoted me the tour on the new date with almost 100% increase in the price. Fortunately they let me cancel the reservation without a charge but we are very disapointed

5.00I got a tour from Chacha, who was awesome. His english is very good but not perfect. There were times that it was a challenge to follow, but that doesn't bother me. He can speak multiple languages whereas I can only speak one, so who am I to judge. If that is a crucial aspect for you, it might not be the right fit. That said, as a solo traveler, I was hesitant of spending the extra money but the ability to say, "I'm done here, let's go" or "let me have a few minutes here to shop" and the flexibility to accommodate was great. A lot of the ruins are repetitive / mirrors etc. so I didn't think I'd need as much time as other tours had slated as well. I was right, we ended back to my hotel about 90 minutes early - Chacha commented that I don't spend as much time as other tourists. I recommend for smaller groups or solo travelers looking to be able to adjust the timing and spend the right amount of time per site as suits you. I have taken a few day trips when I am only spending three nights in a city and it does feel like it is a big commitment of time. Trimming 90 minutes back to seeing more of Bangkok was the right fit for me.

5.00We had an amazing experience on our Ancient City Ayutthaya Private Guided Day Tour thanks to Tuk! From start to finish, everything was seamless, informative, and enjoyable. Tuk was incredibly knowledgeable about Ayutthaya’s history and explained everything in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. What really stood out was Tuk’s friendliness, patience, and attention to detail. We never felt rushed, and the day flowed perfectly. It truly felt like exploring with a knowledgeable friend rather than just a guide. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Tuk. Thank you for making our day in Ayutthaya so memorable!
Great experience

1.00While traveling overseas we never expect others to speak English...unless we specifically book and pay for an English speaking guide. Our guide spoke very little English and it was impossible to understand him or get any meaningful information about this cultural site from him. In the end we asked him to wait for us while we wandered on our own. We still didn't learn anything but at least we didn't have him following us around forcing us to take staged photographs. Informed the tour company of this. We would have appreciated an offer for a partial refund but they did not. They offered basic apologies but that didn't change the fact that they didn't provide the service we paid for.
