    Do not come to Bangkok and miss this tour! The train, the market, and our guide MK made the tour we will not ever forget. Take the private tour and ask for MK as your guide! Very cool: book it now!

    Riding the train into the market was an amazing experience. The floating market was great fun and the coconut farm very interesting. Great trip excellent guide Lin was very informative.

    What an AMAZING TOUR!!! This tour is great with friends but also can be done alone. POPPY our tour guide was MORE THAN AMAZING!!!! Great personality and just made the tour fun and unforgettable. We had a BLAST!!!

    A fabulous day and the perfect way to see a part of Thailand, away from the big city of Bangkok. Our private tour guide Jackie was so knowledgeable and friendly. Our driver made us very comfortable on the long ride and transfers between sites. The excitement of the train passing through the market and the boat ride through the floating market are memories we’ll have forever. A must do.

    Most important part for me while travelling, is to feel safe! This tour and operator made sure of that. And took care of the planning. This allowed me too relax and enjoy the experience. Very happy with the outcome of the tour.
    I would like to say even though I travel by myself (solo travel) I would say this tour would be family friendly as well.
    Another plus was the taste testing at the coconut farm.

    Coming all the way from Hawaii we had so much fun and enjoyed this tour very much. MK was our tour guide and she was very friendly and answered all our questions. The group was small so we could talk to all the travelers and got to know them a little as well. Would definitely recommend this tour.

  7. Evelyn_M

    Very crowded, could not walk there were so many people. No time to look around or make purchase, just push through crowds. Unusual experience. No explanation given for why vendors feel need to crowd up to tracks when logically they could have stalls a few feet back. Worth a visit once if u have time to kill. Products for sale no different than every other market in Thailand.

    The railway and floating markets are definitely a must see on your trip to Bangkok, our tour guide was excellent along with our driver. The only issue was that we were only 2 miles away from the pick up and drop off point and they would not pick us up or drop us off at our hotel when this was a part of the tour description. When booking, I placed the name of our hotel and location, but never received a notification that they would not pick up or drop off there, that only showed up the day before the trip.

    Had a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Lin, contacted us the day before via whatsapp to confirm our pick-up time and location at our hotel. We traveled via air-conditioned minivan with a capacity of 15 people so we had plenty of room to spread out with our group of 7. Lin was very friendly and knowledgeable! We had plenty of time in each stop. Lin also gave us a special treat which is that we got to ride the train into the Railway market (usually available only on private tours and we did not expect this because we booked a group tour!) which was an experience I will never forget. Thank you so much Lin!! Would highly recommend this tour!

    No guiding at all. I learned nothing from this trip, against what many reviews said. Abhinop (Adam) was just like a time keeper getting us from A to B to C. Zero interaction. He was too busy streaming his own Instagram live as we go – such a joke.
    Overpriced for the whole experience. I might as well get my own chauffeur.

  11. Cristina_L

    It was very interesting to go to the floating and railway market! Nice to know the way that the people live and market their goods and services in the water ways.

  12. Jacqui_C

    An experience not to be missed. Our tour guide was so lovely and knowledgeable. It was great to experience these parts of Thailand which I would not have done if not for the tour. Highly recommended.

  13. Morena_P

    Railway market this should be seen . Coconut sugar production give lots of interesting opportunities to learn how coconut can be used.

  14. Susan_D

    We went to the salt farm first. This is where we boarded the train. Being on the train when it arrived at the market was great. We walked along the tracks/market very quickly, with no time to shop on the way.
    Next the coconut farm. Then the guide made her own excursion to a place where we could book an elephant ride, touch tigers etc. We didn’t like to see the elephant chained up so we all asked to leave.
    Final place was the river market, where we were boated around the waterways seeing the stalls at the side. We were only allowed 30 minutes out of the boat to shop /eat etc, this was not long enough.
    The trip felt very time limited and it felt like the tour guide did this to include her own side excursion.

  15. Rachel_D

    Lin was an awesome tour guide! I enjoyed my day so much. The floating market and the railway market were both extremely cool and Lin did a great job providing history and information on both markets. The transport was well-organized and timely so that I got to see a lot in a short amount of time. The coconut farm was also lovely and was awesome getting to try the coconuts and learn about coconut farming.

  16. Bertrand_A

    Thankyou to tour guide Jackie. He was extremely informative about all things Thailand.
    The tour was well paced and very interesting.

  17. Jakob_C

    Our tour guide MK picked us up at our hotel and provided an excellent experience for our family and others on the tour. She even took pictures to help us capture the moment. The train market was an experience I’ll never forget. We got to ride the train through the market and we got off the train and got to experience the train leaving. Such a cool experience! The floating market was really fun too. I’m glad we went earlier in the day because that place got busy in the afternoon.
    I can’t say enough nice things about our guide, the friends we made on the tour, and the overall experience. I highly recommend this tour.

  18. MrsB_M

    This was a great tour to see Railway and Floating Markets, salt farm and coconut farm. Tour guide Lin was excellent explaining much about the Thai culture along the way. Lin knew exactly where to be at what time throughout the tour to make it very special. Thankyou Lin- would highly recommend this tour

  19. Rosetta_C

    It was a great tour, starting with visiting the salt fields, then the railways market, the coconut farm and the floating market. We loved it all. We had a great guide.

  20. Lillian_M

    We had the best time. Pop our tour guide was AWESOME! She was so informative and always made sure we were comfortable and looked after. We had a 6:30am pick up from hotel, so she even bought us coffee and snack as it was a long drive. We were very appreciative. She even ran on the train to make sure we had the best seats.
    Her knowledge of the country & sights we were visiting, her friendly smile and bubbly personality made the tour and the whole day amazing.
    Definitely telling any friends/family about the tour & Pop!

    Fantastic Trip with our Fabulous Guide Pop
    We had a fantastic time on our trip “Floating & Railway Market, Coconut & Salt farm from BKK [Pickup +Multi-language]”. First I need to say that our tour guide Pop was the best. Not only did we see and do everything on the list there were extras at no extra charge. Also if Pop is your tour guide you will not only have a guide you will have your own personal Photographer. Pop knows all of the best spots and will happily assist in taking photos with you and always wants to take just “one more” photo to make sure you get the best shots.
    Our tour included pick up at a Hotel near BTS (skytrain) ASOK stop (terminal 21 mall), comfortable Van ride with a great driver, Salt Farms, Train from Salt Farms to Train Market (not on the tour but we had time to catch the train), Photos at the Lake, Train Market and viewing of Train leaving the Market, Canal Boat Ride and Floating Market, Coconut Farm and lunch(at own expense). Then we all slept in the super comfortable Air Conditioned Van back to Bangkok. It was a great day and I took about 1,000 pics and Tons of Video.

  28. Wendy_P

    A lot of fun and a great experience getting out of the city. Well organized tour. Enjoyed all of the stops. Had to smile at the railway experience and the vendors savvy way that they folded up their awnings etc to allow the train through. Visitors had a wonderful experience

    Our tour guide ICE and the driver went above and beyond returning my hat left in the van. The tour was amazing and highly recommended.

  30. Julia_H

    This was a fantastic tour! Our guide had good English and was knowledgable. She was able to navigate our group of 8 people through the very crowded and busy areas. I am so glad I booked the tour, I think it would’ve been quite hard to do by ourselves. It was super easy, we were picked up from the hotel at 7:45am, and driven to the destinations. This tour included catching the train to the Railway market which was an awesome way to get there. We then got off the train and experienced the markets. It was a great tour, kids loved it. So happy we got to see all the things on the tour and we had a really great group. Would highly reccomend!

    Long drive 2hrs to Railway Market where everything was the same then 2 min to see train come through. Coconut farm to fill in time. The floating markets where the highlight but unfortunately the boat was motorised and the diesel fume’s disgusting. They didn’t use the authentic paddle boats as other companies did.
