Thailand's Iconic Markets: Train & Floating Wonders Tour

We had a fun packed morning taking in the unique experiences of the train market and the floating markets. This was well worth a visit! A special shout out to our guide Johnny who was very welcoming, fun and very informative.

Mr. Kriang was amazing!!! We got to see the railway and floating market and buy souvenirs. He also took pictures of everything.

Boby was an excellent tour guide. Honestly I didn’t had to many expectations with this tour. But it ended to be the best I had in Thailand .

Great excursion -- Mr Johnny is a wonderful guide, making sure I was comfortable while seeing the best parts of the floating market and the railway market. He is a friendly and informative guide who made the tour fun and totally stress-free. I also appreciated the convenience of the air conditioned private vehicle, and hotel pick-up and drop-off. For me, it wasdefinitely worth the price of the private tour since traffic in Bangkok is IMPOSSIBLE to predict and getting to meet-me points for tours is more of a hassle than in many other large cities.

Really fun tour! Thank you Mr Kriangkrai! Got to ride the train into Maeklong railway market, and then see it depart through the market. Had some yummy coconut ice cream at the floating market. A delicious lunch and then boat ride to see monkeys in the mangrove area.

JHONNY it's the best guide of all. Super funny and correct. He shows you all the places with a smile and he have all the the tricks. The tour it's amazing but he put something special to that. Thanks for this day Jhonny it will be in our memory for ever. Best regards dear Jhonny ❤️

A little expensive but worth it when you’re on the train doing high fives with those who only paid to see the train at the market. It is a wonder why locals set up shop on rails lines having to move all when a train passes. The market is full on with everything from beheaded fish, live frogs and insects to plastic tourist trap crap! You know what I mean. The train journey takes you through coconut farms, salt fields and where the locals live and how. Over an hour at least. The boat trip is quite long and staying away from the madding crowd that you experience from Bangkok itself. You can still pick up things but from a laid back environment. The journey takes you through the quiet back water canals. Car from door to door with an excellent guide called Lin in our case. It’s a private tour and in this case, private is you and you alone.

King my guide was fantastic! He is very knowledgeable about all the local customs and culture. The tour was completely customized for me and I had great time.

We’ve just got back from this trip with the absolutely lovely Aom and we have had a wonderful day. Communication before the trip was excellent and we were met at our hotel which made it very easy. Transport was in a very comfortable air conditioned car with an excellent driver who did a great job all day. Aom knows all the best places to go and also takes great photos. The day started by heading to the train station where we had coffee and also got to see the salt fields which was an unexpected bonus. The train ride itself was great, marvellous views out of the train seeing the wildlife on the salt pans. Of course the highlight was when we pulled into the market. It’s crazy! The stalls are pulled back just enough for the train to squeeze past and the people wave and take photos as you arrive. After this we had a delicious lunch and then got to explore the market and watch the stall holders pack up quickly as the train left so we got to see it go past as well as arrive in it. From there we went onto a coconut farm which was a great stop, lots of local produce to see and good crafts. After that it was on to the floating market after a good half hour lazy rowboat trip around the canals around the locals houses. It was really enchanting and relaxing. The market came next and was great fun and the mango sticky rice was superb. You’ll get a lot of lovely treats along the way with this tour but the real treat is spending the day with Aom, you will leave the tour knowing you have a new friend in Thailand👍

We had so much fun with Paula, she is so energetic and engaging! The markets were hectic but fun and she took plenty of pictures! Surely will contact her in the future for other tours we need in Bangkok area. She was very attentive to our needs (water, bathroom, etc.) and was sure to make sure we were as comfortable as can be (even in 90 degrees weather ha!). Thank you Paula, the millers adore you!
