The entire experience was good including the buffet lunch. Glad we booked a golf cart. Otherwise it would have been annoying walking in the sun.

This is a truly beautiful and unique place to spend a day. Had so much fun traversing the city in our golf cart, at our own pace. The Thsi luncheon was delicious with heaps of choices but particularly loved the food being cooked on site near the canal using traditional methods. The free dance items were worth our time. A truly memorable experience.

It was a great experience. In my opinion people can just go there to see and understand the history and culture of Thailand. The tickets we bought online were much cheaper than at the cashier there and we got fast access. You can buy there bikes to go around which I really recommend, the traditional bikes are 100 bath (if I remember correct) the whole day while the e-bikes are charged per hour.

This was my favourite attraction in Bangkok. Its also away from the extremeky busy towncenter. Theres no metro link to here though so make sure to have Grab installed on your app for booking a cab. With headout we got two tickets for the price of one! So worth it.

The Ancient City is huge and incredibly beautiful (rent a bike or golf cart, you will need it), it's a great place to enjoy all the beautiful structures surrounded by a very peaceful ambient! The only note: give the elephants to an elephant sanctuary, they looked well treated but there's no need for them to be there in a not really large space, the structures and the entire place are beautiful enough. The Erawan Museum is stunning! Visit and admire the main building, it is gourgeous, but don't forget to explore the garden and the whole space, it is full of wonderful peaceful corners, waterfalls and places to just enjoy the scenery. The security guard in the main building was wonderful, he noticed we were having trouble taking some photos and stepped up to help us take some photos that were honestly of the quality of a professional photoshoot! Thank you so much! Regarding Headout, we are very grateful to have found this tickets they were half the price the tickets at the door and we were able to buy them while on our way to Ancient City, by the time we arrived we already had the tickets in our email. We had no issues so it was a wonderful experience!
