5.00Highly recommended excursion. NO need to get up early, pick you up EN the hotel, take you to the train station and make a journey DE 50m to the market. Then you see the train passing between the shops. DE then to the floating market, where they leave you time for lunch and return to the MBK.
Everything was amazing thanks to James!!
