Excellent tour and awesome tour guide! - Wow! Such a great tour. One of the best we’ve done! “Uncle A” made the long ride go by super fast with his information and jokes. He also took great care to make sure we knew how to reach him and/or meet at each location.
The floating market is a very unique experience and we found so much good stuff there! Great for shopping. The railway market is also very unique and fun!
Unfortunately, you can’t spend much time at each place due to the long commute and traffic. Despite the time constraints, I felt they allotted the right amount of time at each. I highly recommend this tour. I feel like it is a must do in Bangkok!

Amazing Day - Firstly we booked the trip through Get your guide. For our luxk the starting point was 6min walk from our hotel. We were well received by our tour guide who promptly givw us a sticker with a number to be easy for them to count the number of people. We left to the floating narket and she give us some interesting point and what to expect when arriving there. All well organised with plenty of time to enjoy some Thai traditional food such a coconut ice cream (the best) pad thai, coconut ice cream and mango sticky rice. After we left to the rail market again she advise us if the train was delayed for any reason, the tour will finish after the train pass. Here you can drink some delicious coconut water and "frozen fizzy drinks" - very beautiful shops to buy souvenirs. After we head back to Bangkok and the tour guide gave us some tips of whete to go in the evening. The family loved it, specially my 10 years daughter. Will definitely recoomend it if you have enough days in Bangkok. Loads of love group 8 (trip 08/04/2025)

Unique experience - Eye opening experience and very unique, the tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. However, disappointed at the traveling to and from the hotel. Whe I booked the trip it was not informed that it was pick up only, I had to make my own arrangements to return to the hotel

Everything was great... - Everything was great except our guide was inappropriate when speaking about Pattaya. She brought up the red light district. Her references were derogatory and insulting. There were children and kids on the tour and her history lesson should have been about the cultural things which make Thailand proud. We were offended by her comments. It degraded SE Asia and Thailand.
