Best of thailand markets - Lin and Kevin were absolutely amazing. We were a large group with a few seniors folks, both of them were extremely patient, kind and helpful. If you are taking this tour, take it only with Lin and Kevin! They will take good pictures, negotiate with vendors for you, take you to all good places and ensure you have the best of the time! They even make sure no one photo bombs you or pushes you around in an overtly crowded market! We made so many memories, thanks to them!

Trip of a lifetime - Probably the best tour we have ever done. Lin and Kevin gave us a fantastic day. She was so informative and keen to teach us about her lovely country and people while Kevin gave us a very comfortable and safe drive. We loved the whole experience and Lin ensured we made the absolute most of our visit to the salt farm, train market, coconut farm and the floating market. She sent us some brilliant photos and video of our trip and was really helpful with directions for other sites in Bangkok. I can’t recommend her enough, it was brilliant

Fantastic private tour of thr railway and floating markets - Our guide Lin and driver Kevin were wonderful! Lin had so much knowledge about each location we visited. She had excellent suggestions for us along the tour and captured every moment for us with videos and photos! She also spoke terrific English and helped us with our Thai. Kevin made us feel safe navigating the roads and helped us in and out of the car at each location. They both made the entire day enjoyable and unforgettable!

I would not recommend the floating markets for anyone who loves or respects animals! - The railway markets were a sight to be seen but it was all very rushed and the salt farm prior was quite uninteresting. My main issue was with the floating market though. It was so crammed full of tourist boats that it was difficult to get through and there was no chance to see what the market was really like, let alone buy anything. The worst thing however were firstly the snakes which people try to throw over your shoulder so that you will pay for a photo, there were so many of them in cages throughout and I’m sure they were either drugged and/or had there fangs removed. I almost cried when amidst all the noise, crowds, confusion and chaos, I saw someone holding a terrified little slow loris for people to take photos with. I’m sure it was not the only exotic animal there and they would all be equally as terrified, snakes included and it is for this reason that I would never recommend that anyone go there and especially anyone who has any love or respect for animals
