Private Ayutthaya Discovery: Ancient Kingdom Tour from Bangkok

Really interesting tour with our guide Ohm who is speaking fluemntly English. Ohm has a wide specter of knowledge about Thai history - really interesting to listen to what he can tell about Ayutthaya and Thai history. And you have to pay good attention - he is asking you control question afterwards - We did unforunately not pass that test:-) Also very good and authentic food along the way - breakfast-lunch and dinner - all served in local markets and restaurants. Make sure you do not eat a big breakkfast before the tour! And the driver brought us safe home to our hotel after eight hour trip.This is a highly recommended trip - good value for money. Everything went smoothly - thank you for the trip!

Tour was excellent, Bella was knowledgeable, sites were impressive, the food was terrific. Highly recommend!

We could not be happier about this tour, Sasa was the perfect guide for this, she has so much energy and for us all the food that she gave us was amazing, it was more than just a day trip to Ayutthaya, she knows so much about history that she answered all of our questions, and again all the food that she gave us was fantastic.

Excellent mix of culture and culinary discoveries. Be prepared to taste variety of foods and lots of it. Our tour guide, Sa SA, took time to inform us the culture and history of Attutayah. She was attentive and fun. She made sure to answer questions and encouraged us to taste different foods. Her English was very clear. The pictures that Sa Sa took was downloaded and emailed to us in a timely matter. This was a great bonus. A group of 5 travelers: husband, wife, senior citizen, 20 and 15 year olds. Since it’s a private tour, Sa Sa was very accommodating to our needs. It was a very fun and fulfilling tour. We highly recommend this tour.

We spent a lovely day with Sasa from Taste of Thailand Food Tours exploring Ayutthaya's temples, markets and shops. Our guide and driver were courteous and our day was a well balanced and full schedule. There is much to see and explore in Ayutthaya and we were able to go between temples and tastings with ease. This tour is a great way to explore the history and temples while also enjoying some of the local life of the community. I highly recommend this as a day trip from Bangkok.

My husband and I were in Thailand for three weeks and took several tours. This was the best by far. Our guide Ohm was a wealth of knowledge not just about the history of Ayutthaya but about local food, culture, and all things Thai. He was so friendly and made sure our day was full of good eats, must-see sights, and interesting experiences, as well as capturing it all by acting as our photographer. Don’t miss out on this tour - it’ll be a highlight of your trip!

It was both an interesting and relaxing day. Our guide, Bella, has a huge knowledge and she is a great story teller. During the tour we ate sooooooooooo much delicious Thai food :)

Bella took us on a private tour of Ayutthaya and it was the highlight of our time in Thailand. The ancient temples were amazing and Bella's knowledge of he area made everything come alive. The tour also included several stops to sample local food offerings. Everything was delicious and different from anything we had ever eaten before. Thanks, Bella, for the wonderful time we spent we spent with you. And thanks for the amazing photos you took of us along the way. We will remember our time with you for many years to come.

We had a wonderful tour around Ayutthaya, Siam capital and beautiful Unesco heritage site, with Taste of Thailand Food Tours. Our tour guide, Sasa, walked us around the different temples and ruins, providing interesting information on the history and the architecture, as well as curious stories on food and culture. She is also an excellent photographer and captured nice moments of our tour! We stopped at several food places, tasting excellent Thai street food in a local market, delicious meals at beautiful restaurants and unique sugar treats handmade in front of us! Definitely recommended!

We booked the private tour early in our holiday to Bangkok to learn about the culture, eat a broad range of fabulous food as well as hopefully receiving useful tips whist in the city. We were not disappointed. We were picked up on time (6.30am) at our hotel by Sar Sar and our driver Mr Dennis. We entered the plush air conditioned mini van and were initially given cold bottles of water. We stopped en route to Ayutthia for a bathroom break and arrived at the first ruins after about 1.5 hours. It was good that we arrived early as we were one of the first tourists to arrive and it was hot but not at the peak of the day. We visited two further ruins in the course of the day and Sar Sar went to great lengths to inform us of the associated history. Early on our trip we went to the local market and had the option of jasmine tea or iced coffee. We had iced coffee and felt part of the making. The man who made the coffee was really friendly and sat down with us at the table. At the market was also had fried tofu, some interesting dough balls with peanuts as well as a sweet potato sample. The market was really interesting and we were two of a handful of western tourists. After the first temple we had boat noodles by the roadside. We had two different bowls each and the flavours were intense and fresh. We were offered more but politely declined. On the way out of the town we went to see how Roti was made and again had the opportunity to sample and take a bag away. The roti is a thin pancake that is rolled up and filled with spun sugar. Really fab. Finally after the third temple we were taken to a restraint next to the river and overlooking a temple. We were offered a variety of food and selected parang chicken and sticky rice and a fresh water fish that was deep fried. Were were left alone for about thirty minutes to enjoy. There was plenty of cold water available during the trip and on two occasions we were given cold towels. Overall the trip exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend.
