Enjoying the story of Thailand.

The tour was operated so smoothly and stress-free. Our tour guide “Jee” was not only good at speaking Japanese,but also well experienced and told us many historical things.

I enjoyed it slowly with an all-Japanese guide

I had a wonderful time thanks to Mr. Jee, who is fluent in Japanese. I was able to listen to various stories such as Thai and Ayutthaya history in the car and understand Thai history and culture more deeply (I was surprised that the guide knew about Japan well, even the Japanese did not know). Thank you so much for your support!
