10000/10 recommend!! - Such an AMAZING experience!! Our tour guide was Chaiya, and let me just say you’ll definitely want him as your tour guide as well!! He went above and beyond. I saw something I wanted in the floating market but was too late in seeing it, it was in the tunnel part where you can’t get to on land. He found a way to get to it and made sure I got it. He also made sure we got amazing photos on our tour as well. He taught us some of Bangkok’s history which was fascinating! He made the trip super special.

Jo - amazing no pressure guide in Bangkok - Floating Market & Maeklong Railway Tour with Private Driver We hired a private driver with 3 adults and 2 children. The cost was very reasonable—only 1000 THB from Sukhumvit 20 in Bangkok to the floating market (about a 1.5-hour drive), followed by another 20 minutes to the Maeklong Railway. The railway is a must-see experience! Just make sure to check the train schedule, as it only passes at certain times. Best part—it’s free to watch. At the floating market, you can choose boat tours at different price points (2,000 / 3,000 / 5,000 THB), depending on how many stops you want to make. You can pay by credit card, but note there’s a 7% charge. The experience is mainly sitting in the boat while vendors come alongside to sell you things—it’s fascinating to see. Our driver, Jo, was outstanding. A very trustworthy, decent man who never pressured us into anything. In fact, he charged less than many others, so we gave him extra. The car was immaculate, modern, and we felt very safe the entire time. Jo speaks good English and uses a translator app when needed. One time we didn’t have the right change—he simply told us to pay the next day! We ended up booking him again for our airport transfer because of how professional and reliable he was. Highly recommend Jo if you’re looking for a driver in Bangko

Everything was amazing... - Everything was amazing from the beginning of the day to the end. They picked us up from our hotel right on time. We had a great time all day along at the railroad market, floating market, seen different temples and all kinds of different things. It was so refreshing to get back in the van after each stop to get the cool rags and a nice cool drinks. We enjoyed getting coconut ice cream on the floating market. it was so nice of our guy to take all kinds of pictures of us so we didn’t have to take them ourselves and then he gave them us with Airdrop. We had a delicious lunch and a nice cool restaurant. It was a great tour to get out of Bangkok and have a guide lead you so you don’t have to worry about anything. Anytime we need to use the restroom we would immediately stop and find one which was awesome for me! I highly recommend this tour. You won’t regret it.

Wonderful Market Day - This tour was way better than I anticipated . Chaiya was our guide and he made it fun and educational. The markets were so such a blast and we literally shopped to we dropped. He helped us get great photos and the experience truly was a 10 out of 10.

Book this tour for a unique Bangkok escape! - I was impressed with ForeverVacation Bangkok from the moment I booked. They contacted me on WhatsApp and kept me informed of all important information. They cared about our goals for the trip. We got to see so much!! First a train ride to the train market and got to experience the train both on and off. A tour through the market was interesting. Then a short ride to a temple and the floating market. We had a private boat tour of the market and ample time to shop. Our guide picked up some snacks, water and coffee for us. Then we were off to the dragon temple and lunch. Our guide, Chaiya was knowledgeable and professional. He shared culture and history with us. He tailored the tour to our needs and interests which is the bonus of a private tour. Our van was clean and spacious, and our driver kept us safe. All entrance fees, train, boat tickets and lunch were included in the tour as advertised.
