The Railway Market & Floating Market allow you to experience the unique culture of Thailand. Nakhon Pathom Province allows you to witness history and learn about its story background. The famous coffee shop is a good place for those who love taking photos.

great small group tour with friendly staff and a wonderful itinerary. didn’t live the train market because of overcrowding but the floating market was great and the cafes, particularly bubble in the forest, were worth the visit. highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bangkok and looking to explore a variety of destinations outside the city at an affordable price. a great way to spend the day!

thought about going by ourselves but ended up checking all the train timetable and adding up the traffic hours decided to join this tour. is the best decision. we have been to so many places in one day. safe and happy with some backgrounds provided by our tour guide and dropping us off at the market that we would like to go. think is a perfect itinerary.
