    My family and I really enjoyed this private tour. Our guide, Harry and our driver, Noon, were very knowledgeable, informative. They protected us from the train and went out of their way to make sure that we were safe and all our our expectations were met. Seek them out when you’re in Bangkok. Highly recommended.

    We had a fantastic day at the railway and floating markets! What an awesome experience! Our guide, NOK, was perfect for us! She was so friendly and caring and helped to make our day special. She was right on time to pick us up and was easy to talk to and to understand. She was full of knowledge about the places we were going and she knew how to have us be in the right place to see everything in the best way! All in all it was a great tour!

    We had a wonderful time with our guide Time and our driver Satit. Time contacted us via WhatsApp the day before our tour to confirm our pickup. Everything was well timed, Satit was a friendly and safe driver, we never felt rushed, and saw everything we expected. Because of his relationship with one of the most fun railway stall owners, we had a lot of fun and a prime viewing spot for the arrival of the train. Time was highly informative and really fun to talk to. He sent links to a few coffee places and activities near our hotel that we should check out during the rest of our stay. We had a really great experience! THANKS TIME!

    Nok picked us up on time and we had a great day with her. She was knowledge and gave us some options to tailor the day to us. The Railway market was really good. She knew where to stand to get a good view. The floating markets again were great. We did the boat trip but then also had a walk around. Grabbed some good bargains and negotiated for them. Nok helped giving us some ideas fo what we should be paying. Long day as it takes a while in the car but fantastic day we loved it.

    Late in posting my review but the experience was so wonderful that I remember every minute! Alex our guide made sure we had the best time possible. This trip had so many fun moments it’s hard to list. From the clean and comfortable van that picked us up, to the railway experience to the market and the lunch it was all better than described! Be prepared for traffic! We got lucky on the way there, but the way back was a 3 hour nightmare – nobody’s fault – we took advantage to catch up on our sleep.

    Kim was an excellent guide and very considerate of our needs. She also protected us from too touristy things and gave us a lot of insights into real Thai life.

    Thank you Peter for an amazing day to the market and railway. I would highly recommend for anyone visiting Bangkok. Thanks again Peter and driver for everything

  15. Gustavo_N

    Having a guide and a private transportation and pick up is worth it. We had plenty of time to enjoy the whole experience.

  16. Catherine_M

    Amazing guide Meaw and driver Mr Pong. I was very well looked after, thank you so much for a fabulous day.

    My guide Gwen knew of so many “ inside” spots and local people that my morning with her became a very enjoyable and personal experience. The car was immaculate and Vee the driver was also great. Gwen probably does this tour over and over but at no time did I feel I was “ just one more” she was personable and made my experience special.

    We had a great day with Lucky. She was very knowledgeable about the area, history, and other interesting facts about our experience. She was super friendly and personable so we had a great time conversing. I also appreciated that she gave us some other recommendations of places to visit during the rest of our time in Bangkok. This was probably our favorite tour during our time in SE Asia. I think the private excursion is the way to go, even though it is a bit more money than other group tours. The direct interaction we got, being picked up and not worrying about transferring with a group was really nice. We even had time to add on a cool coffee shop at the end. The dessert treats were wonderful and probably not something I would think to get from walking by the vendor but I am so glad that we got to sample those new foods!

    Harry is an excellent tour guide. We rode the 10:40am train from Ban Kalong to the Maeklong Railway Market, strolled around this vibrant market before moving on to Damnoensaduak Floating Market. Harry was very cheerful, took plenty of photos of us and for us, and provided great insights into Thai life and culture. I highly recommend this tour. Ask for Harry.

  20. Kalpana_T

    Very unique experience.
    It’s a must tour in Bangkok.
    Our guide Kim was great and took great care of us. She had us taste delicious local fruits and drinks. She knew all the nice spots to take pics.

    The tour is an amazing escape from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok and is ideal if you wish to explore other attractions after the trip.
    Our guide, Harry, was excellent. Fluent in English and bursting with knowledge, he not only guided us through the tour but also shared valuable advice on what to see and do in Bangkok. His passion for his work shone through at every opportunity.
    The Maeklong Railway Market was fascinating. Despite the crowds, Harry led us from one end of the market to the other and we were able to see the vendors setting up their wares directly on the railway tracks. We then retreated to a cafe strategically positioned to observe the train passing through the market (Harry once again knew the best photo spots and took the best pictures).
    The Floating Market was another highlight of the tour; we embarked on a boat to explore it and we also had the opportunity to stroll on foot. It was a good opportunity to engage with the local vendors and do some souvenir shopping, but you must have some serious haggling skills when navigating the market.
    The menu of the tour included treats such as sticky rice with mango, coconut ice cream, a beverage from the railway café and a noodle dish (which we skipped because we were full). All the food we ate was exceptional.
    The half-day tour of the Maeklong Railway and Floating Markets was an absolute delight and we highly recommend it!
