What To Expect
Mae Klong Railway Market (Hoop Rom Market)
Visit the famous Maeklong Railway Market, one of the most unique markets in Thailand. Here, you will witness the incredible moment when the train passes directly through the market. As the train approaches the station, local vendors quickly pull back their umbrellas, fold their awnings, and move their goods away from the railway tracks to clear the path. Once the train has passed, everything is set up again within seconds, and the market returns to its lively atmosphere. At the market, you will find a wide variety of products including fresh fruits, vegetables, seafood, local snacks, and many inexpensive souvenirs. It is also a great place to observe the daily life of local people as they sell fresh produce and goods in this bustling traditional market. Don’t forget to take photos of this amazing and unique experience.
Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
After visiting the famous Maeklong Railway Market, continue the journey with a short 20-minute drive to the original floating market of Thailand, Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. At the floating market, enjoy tasting a variety of delicious Thai desserts and local foods recommended by your guide.

5.00Thanks to Poppy for a smooth family tour. The highlights were definitely the comfortable, air-conditioned van and the cold water provided after visiting the market. It made traveling with kids and elderly parents a lot more manageable. Poppy was helpful and kept the children engaged at the ruins in Ayutthaya. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
A relaxed and enjoyable

5.00Visited the Railway Market and Ayutthaya with Paula and had a wonderful time. As a solo traveler, I really appreciated Paula help with taking photos at all the best spots. The temples in Ayutthaya were beautiful, and Paula’s storytelling made the history come alive. A very relaxed and enjoyable day.
So much respect for Poppy’s knowledge

5.00What a fantastic day! Our guide Preecha picked us up at our hotel lobby right on time. He and our driver went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We obtained so much knowledge of Thai history and culture while having the most fin visiting the areas must see places! Don’t visit Bangkok without doing this tour!
Everything went as...

5.00Everything went as planned. The pick-up was on time, the van was comfortable, and the time spent at each place was flexible. Our tour guide, Preecha, was very kind. He did his best to make sure we enjoyed the tour and suggested different spots for photos. He was a good photographer too. We arrived at the train market about 10–15 minutes before the train passed, and Preecha found a good spot for us to watch. The floating market felt less rushed and we had our own boat waiting for us. We didn’t buy anything from the boats because the prices were quite overpriced , but we spent some time walking around the market as well. It’s still a bit overpriced, but you can bargain. We finished the tour in Ayutthaya and spent about two hours there. Preecha was always knowledgeable, and although English is a second language for both of us, we understood each other well. I would definitely recommend this tour.
Highly recommend!!

5.00Everything about this trip was 5 star. Poppy was our guide and she was so knowledgeable. Seeing the train come through the market was a thrill, but the boat ride at the Floating Market was even better. Poppy even treated us to Mango Sticky Rice on the boat, which was so thoughtful. Ayutthaya old temples are stunning must-see history! Our driver was also excellent and made the long day feel very safe.
