Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya

There are lion, tiger, and orangutan shows. You can also pay extra to take photos with your favorite animals. You can stay for 2 to 3 hours to see all the animals.

Itinerary is the best - every stop is very interesting and highly engaging for adults and kids, with a good blend of activities (lion park, elephant bathing iteraction), historic site-seeing (the temple), culture (costume) and food. The pace is just about right, not too tight and not too loose. The Ayuttaya lion park is one of the best zoos we've been, with large number of lions and tigers, elephants and unique shows not often seen elsewhere (lions and tigers, crocodiles, giraffs, elephants), and you can take close-up pictures with the animals at very reasonable price. The guide is funny and thoughtful, even giving some local snack for treat.

When booking, you can only write down up to five places you want to visit, so I listed my desired locations in the comments section, but the day arrived without any further discussion. I was worried about whether everything would be okay, but the guide arrived on time to pick me up, and it seemed like he had properly coordinated the places we wanted to visit, taking us to all of the places we wanted to see. The tour was a bit rushed, but he made sure to point out all the places we wanted to see without rushing us, and we were able to see everything exactly on time, which I'm very grateful for! The tour didn't include the places I wanted to see, and I also wanted to see the light-up displays, and it was the rainy season, so it looked like it might rain, but the guide efficiently planned the time and order of our visits, and we took lots of photos. In the end, I think it was a great decision to hire a guide and charter a car. The heavy rain and strong winds along the way meant I got completely soaked, but it's a fond memory. Also, during the rainy season, chartering a boat to see the elephants bathing was suspended in Japan, but I contacted them directly and they took us there, and it was a wonderful experience. If you want to see the light-up displays, it may vary depending on the time of year, so it's best to confirm the start time in advance. Thank you so much!

The driver was very familiar with Khao Yai and introduced many attractions along the way. For example, when we had no idea about lunch, he was able to give us suggestions directly. The three-hour journey was long, but the car was very stable and fast. I never saw him take the wrong road. He was very professional. The car was very comfortable and you could easily fall asleep. There was a lot of space for the three of us, which was definitely enough. The water was replenished every day. The driver was also very polite and the waiters seemed to like him very much! I highly recommend Jorn!
