★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 719 reviews · from $61

Review of the Bangkok to Lopburi and Ayutthaya tour, with wild monkeys, ancient temples, costs, timing, guides, and practical tips.

“I am trying to be objective and rate this a 3 because I think it could be a better tour under different circumstances. I would probably give it a 2 for my experience. The positive points - you definitely see a different part of Thailand and experience some good history. The negative points - first, they do NOT pick you up as stated. They advertise multiple pickup points and said our hotel was not in the area, which was not true. Not a big deal to take a taxi to the meeting point, but don't advertise hotel pickup, when no one on our tour was picked up. Second, although knowledgeable,…”

Bangkok: Samut Prakan Ancient City and Erawan Museum Ticket

11.Samut Prakan Ancient City and Erawan Museum Ticket

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 73 reviews · from $19

Explore 116 Thai monuments at Samut Prakan Ancient City, add the Erawan Museum, and plan smartly for this vast outdoor museum near Bangkok.

“Der Park ist wirklich nett gemacht. Man kann mit dem Golfcar über die Wege huschen. Führerschein oder Pass mitbringen. Hat 350 Baht gekostet für die erste Stunde und dann jede angefangene 100 dazu. Die Fahrräder waren viel zu alt. Wir waren 2 Stunden dort. Das Museum ist weiter entfernt, haben wir leider nicht gewusst und dann war nicht mehr die Zeit, um noch dort hinzufahren. Lohnen sich 16€? Naja. Es ist liebevoll gemacht und wenn man die Gebäude nicht in echt sehen wird oder gesehen hat, ist es sicher noch schöner.”
