I recommend this tour for first-timers in Thailand. You can stroll around the floating market and see the train passing through the Maeklong Railway Market! However, be aware that the drivers at the floating market will force you to the shore of the merchant stalls to allow them to solicit customers! Maybe because we joined a day trip, the merchants didn't force us to buy anything, but they did stay for a while 😂. But the boat noodles and Thai milk tea recommended by the guide Alex were very delicious 👍. At the back of the Maeklong Railway Market food street, there's an old lady's stall that sells clothes and pants very cheaply. I bought two pairs of pants for 150 Thai baht! The mango sticky rice recommended by the guide was also delicious. I went to take a picture of the train passing through the market, and when I turned around, my mother had eaten it all, leaving not a single bite, haha.

The train street market was such a buzz. You could literally touch the train as it went by. the floating was a different experience altogether. both were very exhilarating. You have to try the signature buffalo cocoa drink at the Buffalo Cafe. Cat, our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Mr T was the best driver ever. highly recommend this tour!!!

Our guide, Chicken (Gai-jaen), was truly wonderful!!!! He was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We enjoyed ourselves from beginning to end. Thank you so much! At first, we were thinking of going by ourselves using public transportation, but the tour took us around the Maeklong Railway Market and the floating market, so it was very efficient, not tiring, and enjoyable! Highly recommended. Thank you so much!

The tour is great. The bus is comfortable, and we are able to visit the must-see sites. I would like to commend Ms. Tony, our tour guide, for making this experience great. Very friendly, helpful, and professional. I would like to take a tour with her again.
