Full description

This is a 12-hour experience in Bangkok. It is run by WendyMu Travel, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Pickup is offered from Bangkok, BTS Saphan Taksin, Hotel and Hotel; the exact spot and time are agreed with WendyMu Travel once the booking is confirmed, and the option you choose sets whether transport is included.

The price covers Round-trip transfers, Entrance fees, Firefly boat trip, Drinking water and Dinner at Amphawa. It does not cover Tour guide, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

WendyMu Travel sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with WendyMu Travel before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Our tour to Amphawa Floating Market and the Maeklong Railway Market was truly unforgettable. Movin and Nadia were incredibly kind and attentive from start to finish. Even though the tour didn’t officially include detailed explanations, they took their time to answer all our questions and share so much with us. They helped us shop, translated for us, made sure we got good prices, and even offered us water and soft drinks as a gift. One of our favorite moments was when they took us to see some animals near a museum — such a sweet surprise that made us so happy. We also loved discovering that the

Mubin was SO great! He showed us everything and was wonderful to be with. I am booking him again to take another of my children on this magical adventure. If you visit Thailand, this is a must do!

It was an amazing trip. Mubin was an awesome guide and very friendly. Even though there was some language barrier, we still communicated sufficiently. It was an experience for life.

Frequently Asked Questions

WendyMu Travel sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed.
The price does not cover tour guide. 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.
