We were a group of 6 and enjoyed the day tour. The tour includes the train trip in 3rd class (2nd last carriage) and we had rhe carriage almost to ourselves or you can pay and extra 300 baht to get the same experience and a bottle of water. Lunch was a excellent waterfront restaurant and we had plenty of time allotted ro explore each stop.
Excellent trip

A full day one but interesting and good value. War cemetery for the death railway. Very moving. Great to walk over the bridge and then a train ride along the railway for a lunch stop
Utterly thought provoking

Very informative and thought provoking trip. Although aware of how the bridge was built, I now understand why and how many poor souls lost their lives. The conditions they suffered are at best unimaginable. The cemetery is beautiful and so kept. If there are families that have a loved one here but are not fortunate enough to be able to visit, rest assured they are respected and very well cared for. The museum needs some tlc but then the items are still in the original condition when found. The bridge can be walked and you can pay your respects at the same time. If you can get on the train then do so as it will give you some perspective of the landscape they had to work in, fantastic trip.

Our tour guide Rach did an excellent job. He took care of all details. My wife found that she lost her sunglasses case after the tour. Rach responded promptly and sent it back in an hour. Thanks to Rach and Team.
