Great experience - We had a fantastic experience on the floating markets tour near Bangkok! The itinerary was perfect, especially the unique experience of watching the train pass through the Maeklong Railway Market. Our guide, Eddy, was exceptional—incredibly kind and insightful. He shared wonderful stories about local culture that made the tour feel much more personal and immersive.

Quick and educational tour - Jacky and Uncle (driver) were very friendly and helpful on our tour. The coconut farm was a highlight that we did not expect. The lunch was very fast, too.

You first visit a... - You first visit a train market where you have about 30 min stay, then a temple where we spent about 45 min, and finally Amphawa where there is a food market but no floating market. The tour ends with a 1 1/2 hour. Boat trip.

Fun day out - It was a fun day exploring some markets that we wouldn't have visited or known about - so we are happy we went on this tour! Cherry was a fun and energetic guide and explained about the history and was generally fun to hang out with.

Great way to see unique sights - The private tour was the way to for us! Our guide was very informative and accommodated our needs and requests, as we wanted to skip the firefly tour and did a canal tour during the day instead which was great! The railway market is definitely unique but gets crowded as expected the floating market wasn’t as crowded

Poor Transportation - The tour guide came with a van that was 1 seat short and told us to get in the van to "wait for another car to come". But lo and behold, he closed the door and we went off on the tour. He also spoke really softly so only people in his extremely immediate vicinity could hear him. The temple only ok and wished we had skipped that to spend more time at the railway market. The floating market was good and the firefly boat ride was nice as well.
