Good, but a few things

4.00Overall I would say it’s a tour worth doing if you want a train ride, markets and boat trip. A couple of things though, the train was heavily crowded, the train market is very difficult to move round and you don’t get much time maybe half an hour, you get about 40/45 minutes of free time at the floating markets and the boat ride is around half an hour which is good. Our tour guide was excellent and he was very organised and clear with his instructions. The food he recommended was also excellent. I’d book this tour if you want to see the basics of the markets and the train!
Time in vehicle excessive for length of tour.

2.00That the travel time far exceeds the actual tour. There is no time to shop and you are not returns to the location you are picked up. Also it is not a half day tour, it is 7-8 hours. Our tour guide tried to make the tour enjoyable and she was wonderful but could t get past 4 1/2 hours in a vehicle for a 2 hr tour.
Great experience

5.00Tanya was a great guide. She explained all details, answered our questions and made our trip very joyful. Picking up from the hotel was easy and comfortable. Also thanks to our driver and other people in the group to be on-time and easy-going. Strongly recommend this tour to everyone visiting Bangkok.
Great day

5.00We had a fantastic day! Really well run tour, riding the train through the skinny market, then being in the market as the train went by was incredible. The floating markets are very touristy but we still loved the experience & lunch was delicious. It would have been great if our tour guide Victor gave us more history about both places, but he was great otherwise. If you don’t mind tourists, definitely recommend!
Amazing time!

5.00We had a great time on the railway and floating market tour in Thailand. Our guide, Mr. Nod, was very friendly and gave us excellent recommendations throughout the day. Both markets were fun and interesting to visit, and we especially loved the coconut pancakes he suggested, they were amazing. The tour was well planned, smooth, and very well done overall. Definitely recommended.
Amazing experience, would...

4.00It is the classic tourist attraction, full of tourists, it's one of those things you do once. However all is organised on schedule and you dont have to worry about anything. The guide Nod was very good guy.
