The trip guide and driver were knowledgeable and helpful. Got a lot of information and was given enough time to explore all the locations. Nowhere during the day trip did it feel that we missed out on anything. Great tour and thumbs up!!

Has such a unique experience, definitely recommend. At first we weren’t sure about going because it’s so far away and we didn’t know how we’d get back to central Bangkok but finding this tour was just what we needed to have such a great experience. the tour guide was very informative and gave us key tips that would you’d never know as a tourist such as the time of the train and dos and donts for the markets. It’s also nice that it’s just a small group of 9! We booked at 4 am and the tour started at 11:30am managed to nab the last 2 spots!

The Mae Klong Train Market is excellent, and totally met our expectations. However, the Ampawa Floating Market no longer exists, even though our tour description included a visit to a 'floating market'. Apparently the floating component of the market shutdown during COVID and the boats haven't returned - very disappointing and a misrepresentation from the tour company. The only boats on the canal are the powerful tourist boats that take people to see the fireflies at night which, to be perfectly honest, are completely underwhelming.

Had a lot of fun walking around the destinations, got amazing pictures at the railway market, tried amazing food due to our guides suggestion and enjoyed our boat ride, all thanks to Nina aka Pranee Upasit. 👏🏼

Wonderful experience. The start of our program's around 10.30 in the morning headed to railway market first, if you want to try different thai streetfoods sweets and fruits you can do it here and amphwa market. Our guide Ms Nina, nice and sweet she will always feed you 😂. We were taught how to pay respect to Buddha and even did some rounds of walking meditation. Amphawa canal doesn't have much boat as I am expecting like selling and all but enjoyed the ride with a firefly watching at the end.
