Recomendable - Small group, well organized, the guide has been very polite and attentive and also has tried very hard to take pictures of us, very good by the way (Joyce was called, in case anyone needs a quality photographer). We really enjoyed the trip

Thanya is the best! - Thanya was such a wonderful guide and companion on this tour. Her knowledge of the site spanned across history into the present. We’d highly recommend this tour to other travellers!

Review from U.S. tourist (English speaking only) - Thanya was an incredible guide, extremely knowledgeable and friendly. She shared many facts about the temples and history behind them, as well as history about the different dynasties and kings/royal families. If you want a tour that punches far above its price, book here and ask for Thanya! Again, she was fantastic! On a side note, she even helped us to order meals so we could get what we were looking for (for me that was something spicy, which can be hard to order as a tourist)!

Historically and culturally rich tour. Beautiful scenery. Lunch was superb with a lovely river view. - I really enjoyed this tour mostly due to my guide for the day, Ken. Ken was very enthusiastic and informative, always providing historical information and answering all my questions. I would 100% recommend this tour if you are after a taste in the history of Thailand. Ken speaks very good English as well so there was minimal language barriers for myself.
