Easy and informative tour - Was nice to have a tour. I’ve traveled a lot without guides, but it was nice in Thailand to save time on planning transit etc. Helpful to have guides pick up and give lunch recommendations.

Everything perfect - We did an excursion that included Lopburi, Purple Temple and Ayutthaya. Everything was perfect and beautiful. The tour has been taken care of in every detail. Our guide, Ken, was very attentive to everything, even bought us bottles of fresh water and, given the heat, offered us fresh towels. Ken has worked so hard to make everything work for the best. We also ate at a local restaurant and it was all very good. A really great tour, the local guide was invaluable for the advice and suggestions. Super satisfied!
