Great tour with great communication. - Really enjoyed our tour ti the Train and Floaring markets. Had a good amount of time in each place and was able to see all that we wanted too. Its that hot, you'll want to get back to coach for that AC. Our guide Mr A was fantastic. He gave a great insight to the history the area and sites along the way. He even gave treats out to try with some light hearted quiz questions for all to join in with. All in all, a great trip.

Railroad and floating markets - Our tour guide was Tammy who is very nice. She speaks English very well. She tells us about Bangkok, Thailand and culture when we were on the van. She has good sense of humor that made the trip so fun and enjoyable.
The railroad market is good but one hour for self explore at the float market is too long.

Not worthy - The good thing in this your the tour guide and the peddalrboat . The only thing I love in this tour the peddleboat and the mango with rice sticky meal two. The train market is so silly to go there , and you find your self shooting pictures and images for train , I think is not worthy . I sug Parisgest to c immediatelyhange this destination to something else
