Girls trip - The floating market is spectacular. There is so much to see there. The train market was not as impressive as I was expecting. It was good but not as exciting as I envisioned.

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.

Great markets - The floating market and railway market are two unique places near Bangkok and should really be visited. I really enjoyed both places. I didn't realise that this tour was in both English and Spanish. The guide seemed far more fluent in Spanish than English but made himself understood. Be prepared for a lot of travelling as both markets are outside the city.

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

Not worth it - Pick up was a nightmare, driver picked me up from the hotel at 8:00 am and drove around from hotel to hotel saying he needed to pick up more customers, however he only picked up one more person, and dropped me off at the. Bus after two hours! Also the service did not include dropping back at the hotel, which was not clear at booking time, they just dropped me off several kilometers away from my hotel and I had to take cab back.

A big let down - I booked this trip based on the great feedback but what a let down. The pick up vehicle did not arrive at 8 am as confirmed and when I called the Monkey Travel Asia contact who had confirmed the car details at 810 am, he had no clue. Then he called back to say the car driver was stuck in traffic (not unusual in Bangkok so needs to be planned for) and wd arrive at 830 am. More calls and exchanges and then I was told the car was not coming but a green and yellow taxi would. We left at 833 am after standing on the road 48 minutes! The taxi driver had no clue where to go. More calls followed. He stopped at two places for 10 minutes each waiting I presume for the bigger bus to pick us up. Nothing happened each time and we were finally driven to the train market - two of us and two we picked up on the way so a tight squeeze in a taxi. We finally arrived at the train market 5 minutes before the train, met a group and guide (not sure if it was our original one) and were asked to buy a drink by the guide, then taken thro a quick walk of the inside market and then out again to the floating market. As a result of our delay, we received no briefing about the train market. The floating market was a rush with a short 30 minute ride in a crowded water way, lunch and then out again. All in all we could have done the trip on our own. Besides a 5 minute briefing before the floating market, we got no guided tour due to the car not coming on time. There were none of the checks mentioned - even our ticket was not checked. This is one of the cheaper tours so guess we got what we should have expected - poor service. A disappointing day with a horrendous start
