We were so lucky to have the most wonderful and enthusiastic tour guide, Xiao Yanzi, who made our experience incredibly enjoyable! Five-star rating for the tour guide!

Apple, the guide, was very friendly and her explanations were interesting. The boat ride is very exotic. Admittedly it's touristy, but it's still the most impressive of the floating markets. The Maeklong market is impressive with the train coming in, but be careful, there are a lot of people and an accident is still possible. A very beautiful excursion overall!

The check-in counter is conveniently located right outside the BTS exit. Our tour guide, Apple, speaks excellent Mandarin, and her explanations were very interesting. Upon boarding the vehicle, you'll receive a bottle of water and a small cookie for breakfast. Before boarding the boat at the floating market, you'll get a small coconut (with a spoon inside to eat the coconut meat). At the Maeklong Railway Market, the tour guide will also recommend restaurants and dishes. However, if you choose a restaurant with air conditioning, the food is tasty but not cheap (on the day I went, a serving of red curry chicken + rice cost about 300+ Thai Baht). With transportation and a tour guide included, it's still a good deal, and I recommend it!

Tour guide Tony introduced everything very carefully and also helped us take pictures. This one-day chartered car tour is very worry-free.

Tour guide Alex explained everything in great detail, and the recommended Thai milk tea and boat noodles were excellent 👍🏻. Also, for friends who want to buy souvenirs, be sure to save your money for the Maeklong Railway 🚞 because it's super cheap! Small zippered coin purses 👛 are only 10 baht 🥺. A very cost-effective trip. If I have the opportunity to come to Thailand 🇹🇭 again, I would want to participate in this trip again 😍.

The itinerary was quite packed, but we managed to see all the places we wanted to visit. It's a pity that we didn't get to visit the Amphawa Floating Market, which I heard only opens in the evening, although the beautiful café at the end was a local's collection. I think there would have been stalls open from 2 PM onwards for us to browse. At the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, it seemed our boatman didn't quite understand our preferences, as he kept taking us to souvenir shops that we weren't interested in. We weren't able to get close enough to buy the pancakes or grilled pork we wanted to try. The prices at Damnoen were quite inflated, whereas the prices at the Railway Market were much more reasonable. The tour leader was very professional and took great care of us.

Lunch was on our own, but it wasn't the typical expensive tourist trap. It was at a place called De Waree Boutique, which had a great atmosphere. The taste was okay, but considering the costume rental was included, the price was reasonable for a tourist area. Our guide, Ploy, took photos for us and even gave us posing instructions, which made for fun memories. Overall, the course content was excellent. They took us everywhere, and we didn't have to negotiate the boat price. In Mae Klong, we arrived right on time for the train. It was a very fulfilling tour and worth more than the price we paid.
