What To Expect
Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
The Floating Market of Damnoen Saduak is among one of the most attractive floating markets in Thailand. Motor boat rides are already included in your tour! Many Thai and foreign tourists come here to absorb the atmosphere of Thailand water markets that have been like this for over a 100 years. At this floating market, you can try a number of delicious Thai fruits and foods such as sweet mango on sticky rice, freshly-made coconut icecream, and Thai-style boat noodle.
Mae Klong Railway Market (Hoop Rom Market)
The Railway Market is humorously called as the “life-risking” market! You will have fun riding a local train toward the Mae Klong station. While on this train, you will see the “Unseen-Thailand” experience. When the train signal rings up, the chaos will happen! Vendors will rush to detract their stall and clear away all goods that obstructs the running train at a great speed. Once the train passes, all shop owners will resume their stalls again.

5.00Our guide, Jim, was great. From the moment we were picked up at our hotel at 6:30 am until we returned at 7:30 pm, she was energetic and only worried about us having a good time. Everything was well timed. We had time to explore at all our stops and we never felt rushed. She took photos along the way and sent them to us at the end of the day. Our driver, Peter, was also good. We felt safe for the 7 or 8 hours of driving. We did the extended tour which included the train market, floating market, Erawan falls and the bridge over river Kwai. A few surprise stops included a salt farm, coffee shop, and coconut farm. Jim was able to accommodate my food allergies. It was an overall unique experience that I would highly recommend.

1.00This tour was too rushed and lacked content. It felt like we were just passing through everywhere with very little time to enjoy. Our guide also too way too many pictures and then pressured people on the tour to give a 5 star review while she watched.
Best price and value for our floating market and train ride.

5.00Lin our tour guide and Kevin the driver were the nicest and most knowledgeable of the floating market and the train. If I come back we will book with them again. We weren’t expecting them to carry our purchases offer water constantly and just really take care of us. If you tour the floating market and or take the train please book with Lin and Kevin!

5.00We had a private tour with Lin; they picked us up from our house and took us to the floating market and the famous train station, where we actually rode the train. She took pictures of us and was very friendly and flexible. Thanks again for the experience. Considering we had kids, she was also very helpful with the baby. Thanks lin!

5.00Do not miss this excellent experience! Our guide Lin and driver Kevin were the absolute best. Our early morning pickup (6:30) was sooo worthwhile, i promise you won’t regret missing a little sleep to get the best experience an the train, at the railway market and at the floating market. Lim made sure we had great photos to remember our time together not to mention she knew all the best spots to sit or stand to ensure an excellent experience. Thank you Lin and Keven for a great day.
