Our Chinese-speaking tour guide, Ah Chun, was incredibly enthusiastic and responsible. He provided detailed introductions to the attractions and even helped us take photos. Bubble in the Forest was breathtaking; visiting on a weekday felt like having the entire place to ourselves. It was absolutely stunning. If you love seafood, be sure to visit Thonburi Market on an empty stomach. We ate and drank our way along the way, and by the time we reached Thonburi Market, we were too full – what a pity! Overall, the trip was fantastic. Thank you to our guide, Ah Chun, and our driver!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect for first-timers! A well-planned and affordable Bangkok market day trip. I joined the KKday Bangkok Market Day Trip and had a great overall experience, perfect for first-timers or those looking for a relaxed itinerary. The meeting point was easy to find, the route was clear, and the buy-one-get-one-free package I purchased at the travel fair was incredibly affordable and offered excellent value. The day's itinerary was perfectly arranged, not too rushed, and the return to the city center wasn't too late. After arriving at the meeting point in the evening, we could even stop by Jodh Market, a great bonus. 📍 The Maeklong Railway Market's train arrival experience is truly a must-see; the atmosphere is amazing, and it's an experience that independent travelers sometimes struggle to time precisely. 📍 The floating market tour includes a boat ride, which is cheaper and more convenient than booking a boat on-site while traveling independently. No need to compare prices or worry about procedures, making it much easier. 📍 Amphawa Sri Cafe is a bit pricey, but the food is delicious and the ambiance is beautiful. The shop offers free Thai clothing try-ons, and a 20 baht tip for the staff will get you photos taken and posing tips – the resulting photos are very memorable and definitely worth the experience. The only slight drawback is the limited time at each attraction; if you want to explore in depth, it might feel too short. However, if you want to experience multiple classic sights in one trip, this itinerary is excellent. Overall, the itinerary is well-planned, the time is well-managed, and the price is reasonable, making it a great choice for first-time visitors to Bangkok or those looking for a hassle-free experience. Highly recommended! 🇹🇭
The guided tour is detailed, the explanation of the attractions is vivid and interesting, and the schedule of the trip is reasonable and not tight, making the journey more relaxed and enjoyable. The driver's driving skills are solid, the pick-up and drop-off are comfortable and safe, and the overall service is professional and courteous, which makes people feel more at ease and satisfied.
This half-day tour of Maeklong and Amphawa, departing at noon, was very comfortable overall. Hotel pick-up and drop-off made for an easy trip, and our guide, Ah Zhong, was attentive and answered all our questions. The time was well-planned, with ample free time. Although traffic delayed our return to the guesthouse, it didn't detract from the overall experience.
Our two female tour guides, Num and Jenny, were very professional and enthusiastic. They explained the itinerary's important points in both Chinese and English. Despite the large group size today, they were very precise with the schedule, and no one was late or delayed, allowing us to see the train arrive at the station on time! They also earnestly recommended places to shop, helping tourists avoid making mistakes and wasting money! Unfortunately, the floating market was very commercialized, and many boats were motorboats, so the smell of fuel fumes was unpleasant.
