2.Amphawa Floating Market & Maeklong Railway Train Market Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 108 reviews · from $48Top rated

Join an English-speaking guide from Bangkok for an eight-hour trip to Maeklong Railway Market, Wat Bang Kung, and Amphawa. Expect canal-side food stalls rather than a fully boat-based market, plus an evening boat ride for sunset and fireflies. Guides may include Siri, Piye, Nok, or Kitty.

“4 stars because, This is not a real floating market. It is physical ground based market with canals for show. Unfortunately our guide did not know good English. You only go to the boat for the evening firefly visit, which is amazing. If you want to go the real floating market explore, other tour options. Communication from the tour company was very prompt.”

4.Amphawa Floating & Maeklong Railway Train Market (Small Group)

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 80 reviews · from $42Best value

Spend about 8.5 hours visiting Maeklong Railway Market, Wat Bang Kung, and Amphawa Floating Market in a group of no more than nine. Expect an English-speaking guide, air-conditioned transport, hotel pickup if selected, local food, and an optional THB 150 boat ride.

“So my review is really about the tour itself and the execution. I would rate them 5 stars, efficient and our tour leader Oum was lovely, obviously has a passion for what he does. What can be improved is post booking communication, being left without a word till 8pm the night before is not really very helpful. We tried every contact available email, phone, etc in vain (the phone number is some Hong Kong disconnected line) it’s the online chat team that told us to wait till 8pm the night before the tour. If this is the system then maybe inform your guests that they will receive instructions then. Now…”

“Amazing trip! There were three of us on this trip, led by Toto. She was very friendly and helpful. We drove to a Maeklong salt farm cafe where she bought us a soft drink each. We then went to the railway market and a temple which was within the roots of a bayan tree before finishing the tour at the floating market and going in a private long tail boat to see the fireflies at nighttime. Toto was flexible with timings along the tour, when we felt we had enough time at some places we could leave a little ahead of schedule for example. We travelled by a private van…”
