The AGS Executive Summary

Explore the staggering ruins of Thailand's ancient capital, Ayutthaya, approaching the majestic river-bound temples via private luxury boat.

The Operator & Origin Story

Before its destruction in 1767, Ayutthaya was one of the largest and wealthiest cities on earth. The surviving stone prangs and headless Buddha statues provide a stark, monumental contrast to the modern frenzy of Bangkok.

You will dock directly at key historical sites around the island city. You will witness the iconic Buddha head entwined in Banyan tree roots at Wat Mahathat, and the massive, restored stupas of Wat Phra Si Sanphet. A catered Thai lunch is served on board as you cruise back toward the capital.
