Excellent tour

What a wonderful tour with our guide Army. Army is super friendly and knowledgeable, and we had a great time learning about Thai culture and history. The train and floating markets were fun, and Ayutthaya is very interesting. Army even added an extra stop for us to learn about making coconut sugar. Great tour and very well organised.

Wonderful day trip for our family

We booked a private tour of Ayutthaya and the Floating Market and it was one of the highlights of our entire trip across Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand — and that's largely down to our amazing driver and guide, Time. Traveling with a 4 and 7 year old can make tours unpredictable, but Time handled it effortlessly. He was flexible, patient, and adapted the whole day around our family's needs without missing a beat. His knowledge of Ayutthaya's history was exceptional — he brought the temples and culture to life in a way the whole family could appreciate. He was also incredibly attentive and always happy to stop and capture the perfect family photo. Couldn't recommend Time more highly — an absolute gem!

A fun way to see a bit of Bangkok and pick up some souvenirs.

Wow! A great fun day out seeing the floating market and Railway market. Army with our driver Non were fantastic. Kind, knowledgable and made sure we stayed cool with plenty of cold towels and water. We loved the railway market and Army showed us some of the great little of the track markets along with giving us time to explore the markets on the tracks. The coconut plantation was very interesting and no pressure to buy anything. Army was always suggesting photo spots and was willing to be the camera man. We loved the floating market and had a nice mix of a river boat tour and walking round. Army also managed to get us back to the hotel promptly to enable us to enjoy an evening out. Highly recommend.

Friendly, fun, engaging tour of historic markets and temples.

This was a fantastic tour for us. Mr. Bakery spoke perfect English. He shared incredible details of the history of Ayutthaya, which helped bring meaning to the experience. He got us excellent seats for the train market and helped us take memorable photos. We also enjoyed the Floating market where the boat driver gave us a thrill going down the back canals at breakneck speeds. The driver was safe and steady, and kept us supplied with water. Good, since it was 36C! We would love to take this tour again, and would recommend it to anyone.
