Flytande marknad med café (Bubble in the Forest, After the Rain)

Det är ganska svårt att tro på recensioner, men tro mig, Papa Paul (vår guide) var bäst. Tiden var inte alls stressig, den var perfekt. Vi åkte till Mekongjärnvägen och kunde köpa lite saker (det är billigare här än på den flytande marknaden). Den flytande marknaden var okej, men kokosnötsglassen var utsökt! Köp också PAPA PAULS MANGO STICKY RICE FÖR DEN ÄR VERKLIGEN DEN BÄSTA. Vi provade så många mango sticky rice men hans var den godaste. Så glad att vi bokade turen med kaféerna för de var underbara. 100 baht per person per kafé ingår i biljetten. Inte nödvändigtvis drycker, du kan också köpa mat istället. Vi älskade After the Rain-kaféet, papayabåten (haha), vi fick paddla båten själva. Bubble Cafe var verkligen jättefint, vi trodde att dryckerna skulle vara sådär, men vi fick det bästa thailändska mjölkteet här. Denna tur är verkligen värd det, jag lovar att du inte kommer att ångra dig. Vi älskar dig Papa Paul!!!!

Det bästa resepaketet någonsin!! Det är fullspäckat med marknaden vid tågstationen och tåget som passerar. Sedan besökte vi den flytande marknaden. Ta med massor av kontanter. Många bra erbjudanden. Sedan besökte vi ett tempel med en gigantisk pagod. Lunchen på After the Rain är utsökt. De accepterar kreditkort MEN man måste spendera minst 500 baht. Det var svårt att nå det beloppet eftersom maten var billig och det bara var jag och min man. Sedan fick vi se Bubble in the Forest för drinkar och foton. Paul var rolig och mycket gästvänlig! Njöt av turen. TACK SÅ MYCKET!!! Resplan: Hela dagen!! Älskade det! Guide: Paul – FANTASTISK Gruppstorlek: 9

感謝導遊Pani一路上的照顧，不但幫我們拍美照還會幫我們找廁所。鐵道市場真的很有特色，看到喜歡的東西建議多比價，價格會差到一半以上，火車快來時要盡快找好位置，不然會被擠到無法近距離看火車的地方。在丹嫩莎朵就是乘船遊一圈感受水上市場，東西偏貴所以什麼也沒買。佛統大塔非常壯觀令人肅然起敬。下午的兩個咖啡廳都是拍照好地點，一個可以划船很有趣，一個是有美美的水池，兩家導遊都有請喝100銖的飲料。不想花時間規劃交通的話很適合參加。

Arrived 8am in Hug Thai, we we’re only 7 in total in the group tour which was easy to control no need to wait for anyone. We departed earlier than the actual time 8:20 am and arrived aroun 9:40 in Maeklong Station. Maeklong Station is just a railway market where you could find dried fruits, thai food, thai souvenirs, clothes, and a lot more. It’s cheaper here compared to the floating market so better buy or eat here first. We had green thai milk tea (40 baht), pad thai (60 baht), mango sticky rice (50 baht), and bought some souvenirs. Train arrived at 11:10 and there were a lot of tourists already flocking to take some photos. It was an okay experience, something to add to your itinerary since market is cheaper. After the railway market, we went to Damnoen Floating Market, it was expectations vs. reality moment, it’s nice to experience it maybe once but it’s just another market on water but prices are more expensive compared to others, I just tried their coconut ice cream just for the experience. We went to the temple at noon, where we just roam around the area and took some pictures, there’s food stalls also outside the temple. The temple is around 40-50 minutes away from the floating market. After the temple, we went cafe hopping, first in After the Rain Cafe and Gallery, it’s good for photos, we had drinks each included in the tour package worth 100 baht below only, you just pay the excess. We also bought Rice Noodles with Pork, one of their best sellers, and didn’t disappoint, it was good and serving is also okay. In Bubble in the Forest, we only spent around 30 mins in the cafe to avoid Bangkok traffic, we took photos in the area, ordered another drink (below 100 baht) and roamed in the area. We arrived around 17:30 in Bangkok and was dropped off in Hug Thai, it’s more expensive than doing it DIY but for the convenience and comfort, it’s a reasonable price. Good experience!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience booking our day tour through Klook to the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, Maeklong Railway Market, Phra Pathom Chedi, Bubble in the Forest, and After the Rain Cafe. The entire itinerary was well-organized and strictly on time, which made the day run very smoothly. We want to give a huge commendation to our guide, Steve, and our driver for their excellent service. Steve was incredibly nice and refreshingly honest, providing us with great advice on what was truly worth seeing and which tourist traps we should avoid. Even though the itinerary felt a bit fast-paced since there were only three of us in the group, we never felt rushed. Steve guided us every step of the way, ensuring we stayed relaxed and informed throughout the day. This tour was a highlight of my mom’s 70th birthday celebration, and I was so impressed by how comfortable and accommodating it was for her. Thank you, Klook and Steve, for such a memorable and comfy experience!

I was pair up with the guide Champ and he was attentive, patience, helpful and funny. made the tour quite a lovely experience. I left my phone at one of the cafes and he had a Grab drop it off at my hotel. helped with taking pictures and shared some of the history of Thailand - the floating Market and the cafes. offered helpful suggestions of how to bargain with the locals in the Market. the only thing that could've improved was the weather... I was literally soaked in sweat by the time we finished, you will definitely need a fan on the go, don't chance a heat stroke trying to look cool 🙃 Met a lovely couple from Australia who made the experience a touch better, overall don't hesitate to book even as a solo traveler! just bring enought cash, water and a fan... there are no ATMs near the locations we went. used most of my cash in the first two markets like a dummy 😂

Turen var superkul och prisvärd! Särskilt eftersom platserna låg väldigt långt från stadens centrum och upphämtningsplatsen. Vi bokade Centralworld som upphämtningsplats, men ungefär två nätter innan informerade de oss om att upphämtningsplatsen hade ändrats. Det var okej eftersom den nya upphämtningsplatsen låg cirka 10 minuters promenad från den ursprungliga. Reseledaren, Mr. Sammy, var hjälpsam, vänlig och informativ! Han kunde till och med en massa filippinska ord och lärde oss några thailändska ord också :) Vi fick också en stor flaska vatten och en kaka i början av resan (vilket var väldigt omtänksamt eftersom de flesta restauranger inte erbjuder gratis vatten). Vi besökte alla platser på resplanen, men jag önskar att vi hade spenderat mer tid på vissa ställen (som templet eftersom det var en festival + matstånd). Vi var bara fem personer på turen, men jag tror att maxantalet är sju. Hur som helst var bilen rymlig och bekväm. Sammantaget hade min familj och jag väldigt roligt! Ett stort tack till Mr. Sammy och vår chaufför!

Fantastic Guide and Picture-Perfect Itinerary: The itinerary was amazing, with plenty of beautiful spots to take great pictures. Our group was small, just 8 people plus Jimmy, our guide, which felt more personal compared to the larger tour groups we saw along the way. Unfortunately, Bangkok traffic was worse than usual that day due to an accident ahead, which caused delays in our schedule. Despite this, we managed to catch the train passing by at the railway market, though we only had around 20 minutes there because of the packed schedule. At the floating market, we grabbed lunch, and the experience was absolutely fascinating as a tourist. The coconut ice cream and mango sticky rice were delicious, and the floating market offers cheap souvenirs. By the time we reached the last café, we were about an hour behind schedule, but Jimmy made the experience enjoyable. He’s such a jolly and experienced guide, with fluent English that made conversations easy and fun. He even managed to make us laugh—a skill not every guide can master! It’s clear he has years of experience, and his cheerful personality really stood out.

Crossing the floating market, Bubble in the Forest, and the train market off my Thailand bucket list was such a memorable experience! Exploring the bustling market on the water, relaxing in the unique Bubble in the Forest, and witnessing the train pass through the market were all incredible moments. Our tour guide, Marco, was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure we had the best experience possible. This tour was a fantastic way to experience the vibrant culture and hidden gems of Thailand!

Really fun, even for a solo traveller! I was worried we wouldn't have enough time for each cafe, but it was definitely sufficient given how many activities are in the itinerary. Good balance of guided and free time to self-explore. Lunch is at your own cost - and despite it being a hot day, the Tom Sum boat noodles at the floating market are worth the try! Guide gave clear expectations and cooperative participees made everything run with like clockwork. I mistakenly left my bag in the vehicle thinking that we would get back on the vehicle after a short bathroom break, but it turned out we were already at the site. Luckily, our guide and driver worked together so I could get my bag quickly and it didn't slow down our tour. Overall well organized, knowledgeable and experienced guide (ask for Tom!), and safe driving (thank you Mr. Driver and I'm sorry I don't remember your name!).
