Itinerary

Start your tour by meeting your fluent English-speaking tour guide at the meeting point in downtown Bangkok by 09:00 AM. After boarding a fully air-conditioned coach, head for about 1.5 hours to Ban Ka Long Railway Market where you will get on a train to ride it to Maeklong Railway Market itself, led by the tour guide. After exploring the market, take a paddle boat to sail through the canals and enter into Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Here, you'll be provided enough leisure time to wander around the many local shops inside the market. Try local Thai delicacies such as Pad Thai, mango sticky rice, boat noodles, tropical fruits, and more. Next, hop on your return transfer to Bangkok and be dropped off at King Power Mahanakhon, the tallest building in Thailand and an iconic architectural landmark. You can choose the additional option to receive your full entrance pass, then soak up panoramic views of Bangkok from a 314-meter (1,030-foot) high skywalk. Look down through the glass, if you dare.

The transfer was comfortable, the tour guide Kitty was very helpful and friendly, she told us a lot of interesting info about the markets and Thailand as well. The markets were very crowded, so more f (Read More)ree time would be better there. It was only 6 hours all together, so more free time at the markets would be needed.

nice excursion, but at 3:45 p.m. we were back in bkk, it didn't last 8 hours as described when booking. we only had about 35 minutes to see the train pass between the shops and do our shopping and go (Read More)to the toilet, which is really too short and a source of stress because there were a lot of people on the tracks before the train arrived. we could only do 60 meters because we had to allow time for the return in the opposite direction with people jostling each other. then we went to see the floating market, it was really worth seeing but there too. we only had 50 minutes to eat and shop and take photos. We had to favor walking around and eating bananas due to lack of time. are happy to have seen the train and the market but the timing was not respected at all especially since during the presentation in the coach thanks to posters, it was indicated return 5:30 p.m.

Full excursion with the view of the market during a ride in the train then the market with a view of the train it was very original (be careful of the smells because it is a fish market) then we did t (Read More)he floating market with a boat ride but the engine of the boats on this market disturbs a lot of people and makes the experience less authentic ... the guide recommended a good restaurant. It is a very good quality / price ratio
