Things to do in Amphawa Floating Market

We enjoyed the trip a lot, our tour guide Mr Somchai (Sern) was helpful and fluent in Chinese and English. The itinerary was well arranged, and we were lucky to see fireflies too.

This itinerary, starting in the afternoon, is perfect for those who don't want to wake up early and prefer a more relaxed pace! I was so excited to see fireflies for the first time. I initially thought the floating market meant buying things from boats, but it turns out it's just for enjoying food there. Still, it was fine, and I would recommend it to friends!

This was a very special trip. The tour guide provided explanations in both Chinese and English and was very dedicated. Because the new highway was open, we arrived at Maeklong Railway Market 30 minutes early. If we had arrived early, we should have had more time for a meal, so we didn't have extra time to eat. We saw the train at 11:00 AM and had to board at 11:20 AM. We arrived at the floating market around noon. The original plan was to leave at 3:00 PM, but the guide said we had to leave at 2:00 PM so everyone could use the restroom. We returned to the starting point around 4:00 PM, an hour earlier than expected. We could only wander around the area. As soon as we got on the bus, the guide informed us that tips were not included, so it was up to us whether to tip or not 😂😂😂. This tour was very unique, and it would have been more interesting with a bit more time to explore, but it felt like the guide was very rushed.

I had a great experience on the Amphawa Floating Market & Maeklong Railway Train Market Tour with TripGuru. Our guide, Jack, was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and well organized throughout the entire day. We left from Bangkok and traveled comfortably to the attractions. The Maeklong Railway Market was especially fun to experience in person, seeing the vendors quickly move everything as the train passed directly through the market. Amphawa Floating Market was also a great stop, with plenty to see, explore, and eat. Jack kept everything running smoothly, gave us helpful information about the places we visited, and made sure everyone knew where to go and when to meet back up. It was an easy and enjoyable way to visit both attractions without having to worry about transportation or planning everything ourselves.

P'Nok was an amazing tour guide. She was very attentive to making sure everyone was accounted for and assisted with any questions we had about anything. she had a great sense of humor that kept me laughing too. The tour itself was fun and worth the value paid. The bus was well cooled for us to escape the heat. I felt safe the entire time.

We booked our Damnoen Saduak and Maeklong Railway trip through Klook as we wanted to make our Thailand trip a memorable one. We had a great day, and the tour operator (TTD Global) was fantastic. The bus was very comfortable, and our tour guide for the day was well-organized, friendly, and great fun. Our guide, P’ Nok, was also very informative and helpful along the way. She made sure we all knew where to meet and at what time. It all went like clockwork. The tour was at a great pace, and there was no rushing. She is an excellent guide! I also love the fact that she’s able to speak Mandarin/Chinese fluently. We enjoyed the day immensely. It was better than my expectations. The train and boat rides were highlights, especially at Damnoen Saduak, where we had a beautiful view of the river channels and could enjoy an amazing coconut ice cream that is free! The experience was really worthy—just do it! You will love it! The driver did a great job too. I would highly recommend!

I'm Japanese. Although the tour was only available in English and Chinese, it wasn't a problem at all because the guide explained everything carefully in English. This is a full-day tour from morning to night, and I'm really glad I participated because I didn't have to worry about transportation. I joined alone, but most of the other participants were families or couples. The small group size suited me well. The guide was also incredibly kind, polite, and always smiling. I highly recommend the Amphawa firefly cruise! It was a memory that will last a lifetime!

Here’s a shorter, punchy version: ⸻ Amazing experience from start to finish! Everything was smooth, well-organized, and exactly as described. A special thanks to our guide, Suphot—he was fantastic. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate. He made the tour engaging, fun, and memorable with great insights and a relaxed vibe. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Suphot as your guide ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Itinerary: The tour included historical introductions and interesting stories, which made it much more enjoyable than just a quick look around. For lunch, we were given many options, and we chose a riverside restaurant where the food was delicious and the ambiance was excellent. Comfort: The vehicle was equipped with water and small fans, which was great. Our guide also allowed us plenty of free time (for rest). Guide: Q was fantastic, and we had a wonderful experience all day. Thanks to Q's planning, we even got to see fireflies despite a light rain in the evening! Group Size: 4 people
