The tour guide is a lovely man who is very smiley and constantly cracking jokes. I feel that he is also a kind man with a kind soul. Kop on kha for your efforts!
The trip was even more interesting than I expected! I was able to see Maeklong market and Damneon Saduak market from every perspective and I made a lot of wonderful photos. Our guide Natalie and driver Son organised everything perfectly!
First time in Bangkok and this tour gave us opportunity to see what this city has to offer. Highly recommended.
Nothing exciting at the floating market, really catches tourists!The prices are 3 to 4 times more expensive than in Bangkok. Does not reflect traditional Thailand. As for the rail market, we can see that they live only from tourism. I definitely don't recommend this trip, we don't learn anything about the soul of the country.
We had a lovely day with Mr Boy as our guide. He was very entertaining and informative. He was also honest with us about the cheapest places to buy stuff. The day is long as there is a long drive but worth the visit for something different. If you are getting a grab or ordering taxi make sure to leave AT LEAST 90 mins before arrival time of 9am. The traffic in the city of Bangkok is terrible and slow moving at that time of morning. We thought an hour would be enough and when our grab came he said there was no way he could take us to pick up point in an hour so he dropped us off at train station and we raced blindly through Bangkok to get there in time just like in the amazing race!! I called them along the way and they said they would wait until 9:10. We miraculously arrived 9:12 and Mr Big was there still waiting for us. Thank you for waiting and understanding our predicament. Highly recommend.
We found the Thai people entertaining with all their yelling at the train station market and floating market…………………..
We took the market tour (train and floating) and ended at the skywalk. It was very good and there was time for everything in a relaxed way. Our guide was Kitty, extremely organized, very friendly and always ready to help, she found the best spot to see the train in the market, we couldn't have a better guide! Thanks Kitty!
