Floating and train market!! - Our tour guide Ohm was very informative and knowledgeable. We enjoyed the ride to the markets as he told us some history along the way. The markets were busy but very interesting. It was amazing to see the shops roll up their umbrellas every time the train needed to pass. It was a cool experience to be so close to the train while it went by. The floating market was great as well. There was beer and snacks all the way along. As well as souvenirs for all kinds. I would recommend this tour to anybody.

Great way to experience another side of Thailand! - We had a great time with our guide Ohm. He was waiting for us in the lobby of our hotel promptly at 7am and we were off to the railroad market. We spent about hour or so at the rail station and then it was off to the floating market. Both stops were a great way to interact with the locals and see another side of Thailand. This was definitely an experience we'll never forget. Highly recommend.

Train and Boat Tour - Our tour guide was excellent and was mindful of our timeline to necessitate being back to the meeting place to return to our cruise ship. This private tour was informative and we totally enjoyed it. Seeing the train going through the market was an experience. Our private boat ride through the markets was also fabulous. We had plenty of time to see everything.
Would recommend this tour.

Great tour provider - KKK Tours (slightly unfortunate name) our guide was very helpful, friendly and knew where to take us to get the most out of our 1/2 day.
It was just us in his vehicle which was modern, clean, cool and had charging candles, water, tissues.
Picked up from hotel first thing to go to the train market which was a fantastic experience and a taste of authentic thailand, as the stall holders go about their business then have to move everything off the tracks as the train rattles through - a really great experience.
then to a long tail boat in to the 'floating' markets which are basically tourist shops next to canals, where you stop at each stall and each stall owner tries to get you to buy something.

Good value - Seeing the hectic, crowded train market was a fantastic experience. Our guide was on time, gave clear information and made sure we knew what to expect along the way. The half day tour was plenty of time to see the atttactions.

Interesting introduction to the country side and local products. - Interesting journey to the countryside of Thailand, the floating market is an experience, very tourist trap, but it was fun, our guide tell us all the stories, and lot us history of Thailand.
The railway market is more authentic as they sale local products to the local people, its incredible see them moving all the goods before the train passes.
A great opportunity to get to know local products.

Markets with an Un Licensed Guide. - This tour was billed as a small group tour, it ended up being just me and the "DRIVER" The driver was supposed to be a tour guide, but he did not have his tour guide license, so he could not explain anything, or go with me into the markets. He was worried about the tourist police and getting into trouble. In addition, the driver spoke very little English and could not under basic questions. How can they send out someone that is not licensed? With that said, the visit to the train market and floating markets were fun, once I got my bearings and figured out things on my own. The driver was pleasant and professional, but it would have been nice to get some local commentary form the guide while visiting the markets.
