Facilities: The van was very clean and the air conditioning was sufficient. There were 6 of us that day and it was very comfortable. Tour guide: Please explain clearly. Train: I used to watch the train next to the train tracks, but this time I was able to take the local train to the market... it felt new! Itinerary arrangement: The time arrangement is good, there is enough time for each attraction. The time on the water may be a bit long, but the weather was good that day, so we took our time walking and watching, had dinner, and then slowly walked to the pier. The timing was just right! Scenery: The focus was on seeing fireflies... Luckily... there weren't too many... but at least there were some... The boat ride was also very comfortable... We were dropped off at the pier and picked up to go back to Bangkok... The timing was just right! Great!

The five-star rating is well-deserved, especially considering the tour guide's comprehensive Mandarin explanation throughout the entire trip. The highlight of the tour was definitely the nighttime firefly watching at the Mae Klong River. If you're coming to Thailand, I highly recommend the Mae Klong - Amphawa day trip.

We're incredibly grateful to our guide, Mr. Mamuang, for showing us around for the day. He was very responsible, ensuring we felt safe and could enjoy ourselves throughout the entire trip. We were able to visit all five attractions on time, and we took many beautiful photos. Thank you, Mr. Mamuang, for proactively taking photos for us, and for providing us with cool, wet wipes and water. You helped us create happy memories in Bangkok. Mr. Mamuang also proactively bought drinks for us at the cafe, allowing us to spend more time taking pictures before the heavy rain arrived. Additionally, the minibus was comfortable, and the driver drove safely. If we come to Thailand again, we will definitely join another excellent local tour with TRD Global!
