It was a great experience to visit all these places in one tour only. Our tour guide is really great and shared a lot of facts about the history of Thailand. He is also kind enough to took us some pictures in every places we visited. Also, our tour also comes with 2 drinks! Overall, it was a fun experience! Will definitely visit Thailand again.

Visiting the Floating Market and the Railway Market was truly a rewarding experience and absolutely worth the price. The vibrant atmosphere, the colorful boats filled with fresh produce, and the unique way vendors sell right along the train tracks made the tour unforgettable. It’s not just sightseeing, it’s being immersed in the culture and daily life of the locals. Every moment felt authentic, exciting, and well worth it.

Because I wanted to see the famous railway market and floating market, and didn't want to do too much research on transportation, I chose this one-day tour to simplify transportation. This itinerary has several good points and points that can be better: 1. This group happened to have a tour guide who could speak both Chinese and English. He spoke Chinese without any accent, so it was ok for communication and asking questions. The driver drove very steadily. 2. This group takes the train to the train market, which is different from other groups who watch the train entering the station from the ground. However, there are also a lot of people on the train and there is no place to sit, so you can think about whether you want to experience this feeling or greet the train entering the station on the ground. 3. The stay at the floating market is three hours, which I originally thought was too long, but with a slow stroll and dinner, it's actually ok. Disadvantages: 1. The shuttle bus is a modified van, and the seats don't have seat belts. People who have concerns about safety should evaluate it. In addition, because it is a modified car, the air-conditioning doesn't feel very cold. 2. The time spent at the railway market is less than an hour (including the time for dinner), which I think is very short and I can't have a good stroll. 3. There is an activity of taking a boat to watch fireflies in the evening, which is quite special, but I took a half-hour boat ride to see the fireflies, and then rushed back by boat after not seeing them for 1 minute. This is... It is also worth mentioning that there will be traffic jams on the way back to Bangkok city, so please don't arrange other trips, because we arrived in Bangkok city an hour later than scheduled.

such an amazing trip and Wawa is an excellent host supported by her excellent team. Arm took wonderful pictures. Not forgetting the luxury bus that awed us right from the start of the tour. Timing was perfect, no long waits and enough time for bathroom breaks. Thank you Wawa and team. Highly Recommend!!!

Must try coconut ice cream, boat noodles, milk tea and coffee in the floating market. The train market suggests that it is enough to walk around, and look forward to the arrival of the train to take pictures, and there are many tourists waiting. The viewing restaurant at the end of the journey is very good. I bought a beer and looked at the scenery. It was so pleasant!

Easily travel from Bangkok to Hua Hin, arranging your itinerary according to your wishes (details finalized via email three days prior). Our itinerary included: 08:00 Pick up at Hostel 09:30-10:30 Damnoen Saduak Floating Market (manual boat ride, 200 Baht per person for half an hour, paid to the driver) 11:30-12:00 Khao Luang Cave (easily accessible cave) 12:10-14:00 Phra Nakhon Khiri Palace (Khao Wang Palace) (Take the cable car up the mountain, there are three places to visit, requires some walking, beautiful scenery! Although it's hot walking under the scorching sun at noon, it's worth a visit) 14:40-16:00 Mrigadayavan Palace (beautiful seaside palace) 16:15-16:20 RRC bus station (buy tickets back to the airport) Everything went smoothly and we arrived at the hotel in Hua Hin ahead of schedule. The driver, Mr. Mok, only spoke very basic English, but he confirmed the necessary details with us. As for the details of the attractions, it was convenient to look them up on my phone! Overall, I was very satisfied and felt it was a good value for money, satisfying all the attractions I wanted to visit in one go.

Driver was punctual and the trip was pleasant. We were caught in the traffic jam coming back to Bangkok though, as a result, we reached back at about 50 mins later, and were charged extra 300B.

This one-day tour of the old city was such a great value, and it's all thanks to our guide, Michael Jackson (who calls himself the Takeshi Kaneshiro of Thailand)! He was full of energy all day, and his professionalism was absolutely top-notch. He's Thai, but he speaks fluent Chinese and English. When he explained the dynasty history in Chinese, his logic was incredibly clear, and there were no communication barriers at all. What impressed us most was that he even prepared beautiful historical materials and before-and-after comparison images, allowing us to compare the current state of the historical sites with how they looked in the past. History instantly came to life, and it wasn't just about looking at stone buildings anymore. During the tour, he was also very patient in teaching us to speak Thai. Under the hot Bangkok sun, he always thoughtfully helped us find shady spots to take pictures and listen to his explanations, making the tour relaxing and comfortable for us. I really hope every group can meet a guide as excellent as Michael Jackson. He added so much to this trip! If you have the chance to join this tour, be sure to request this "Takeshi Kaneshiro of Thailand!"
