5.00We had a wonderful day out! The car pick-up was right on time and very comfortable for the drive. The Railway Market was such a thrill seeing the train pass so close is something you just have to experience. Paula was so sweet and made sure we got some great photos. At the Floating Market, the atmosphere was so lively and colorful. Paula even treated us to some coconut ice cream while we were on the boat, which was delicious! She really looked after us. Highly recommend her!

5.00If you love taking photos, Som is the guide for you! She knows exactly where to stand for the train shot. The floating market was so colorful and Som helped us negotiate prices for souvenirs. She also treated us to some amazing Mango Sticky Rice which was delicious. It was a long day but the air-conditioned van made it very comfortable. Highly recommend!
