The day was excellent. There were three of us: a teenager, a senior citizen, and a person in their fifties. The bus was clean, and the ride was smooth and safe. Our guide, Palm, was very kind, informative, and attentive to our needs. A photographer was also present, and his photos are superb. The food on the bus was typical Thai and delicious. The train tour was fabulous. The prices at the market were affordable. We went to the stall of a viral TikTok influencer and bought some souvenirs at reasonable prices. We stayed there sipping coconut water while waiting for the train to arrive, which we

Enjoyed today’s tour. Palm, the driver, assistant and photographer were excellent. As we went through Bangkok, Palm shared history. The ride was pleasant and very comfortable. Surprised by the snacks and food served —very good — especially the mango and sweet rice and the afternoon local snacks; plus we had a full lunch main course. The floating market was my highlight. Highly recommend the tour. Palm is a professional guide.

Wawa, the driver and the photographer gave us an amazing experience of the train market and floating market. She was very knowledgeable about Thailand and the areas that we visited. The journey and coach was comfortable and the food was tasty. A great experience overall. It’s to have a guide to understand the culture. Many thanks for a wonderful day Pathak Family

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Bangkok The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover personal expenses, additional food and drinks not mentioned and tips and gratuities. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Because the floating market is a morning market: the boats are busiest from 7:00 and thinning out by 11:00, and the road from Bangkok takes 90 minutes. Tours that leave at 7:00 see the market working; tours that leave at 9:00 see the souvenir stalls. Maeklong's train times are fixed and the itinerary is built around them.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
