Ayutthaya: the ancient and glorious capital of Siam
A short drive from modern, fast-moving Bangkok stands one of the richest and most absorbing archaeological sites in Southeast Asia, proudly listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Choose our Ayutthaya tours and you will walk among towering red-brick ruins and old stupas, and see the famous Buddha head held in the tree roots at Wat Mahathat: a genuine step back in time.
Whether you want an easy day trip from the capital, perhaps combined with a scenic cruise on the Chao Phraya river, or you would rather make this site the first stop of a complete package heading north, we can build the itinerary around you. Away from the standard tourist runs, our expert English-speaking local guides walk you through the ruins and tell you the legends, the secrets and the scale of the empire that once governed from here.
