I woke up around 5 AM to join the tour. It really felt like I was on vacation!
The guide was very friendly and talkative, and I had a great time!
I was also very satisfied with the tour's content, as I got to see the floating market and the train, and the schedule was perfect!
I chose this tour because it was the cheapest tour I could book alone.
The commentary was all in English, but it was simple English at a compulsory education level, so I enjoyed it without any problems. Everyone around me was a foreigner, though.
Here are the good points of each spot:
* Maeklong Market
This tour takes you on the Maeklong Railway from Bang Tho Rat station. Since passengers from other tours also board at later stations, the train is packed by the time it reaches the final stop, Maeklong Market. Boarding early and securing a window seat makes for a comfortable ride. You can also take photos of people on the market side reaching out to the edge of the train.
* Floating Market
Only the longtail boat ride is included in the tour price, but most people paid an extra 150 baht for a paddle boat ride. You can enjoy shopping from the paddle boat. The coconut ice cream was delicious. Afterwards, you also take a longtail boat, which allows you to explore the outside of the market that you can't see from the paddle boat. It wasn't overly touristy; I enjoyed seeing the daily lives of the locals on the water, appreciating its duality.
Overall, I'm glad I used their service.
The pick-up and drop-off were smooth, and they were flexible in accommodating my last-minute change of location. Being able to contact them immediately from the day before to the day of the tour was reassuring. The return time was around 4:30 PM, which was good as it wasn't too late.
We used this service for a trip with two other guys, and our guide, Warin, was fantastic! He took us to the most interesting places via the shortest route, and his efficient photography skills were truly professional. With three guys, it's often difficult to get photos of all three of us together, but he even gave us pose instructions and took over a hundred pictures. Thanks to him, we have some great memories. He also recommended and bought snacks along the way and even arranged drinks. The price is reasonable, so I highly recommend him!
