Wow… definitely recommend this tour…You get to see some of the must see places in Thailand within a day. The floating market was awesome so was the experience of petting a huge Bengal Tiger… loved everything about this tour
Our tour guide ( PA) was awesome She and her driver allowed us to customize our itinerary and length of time at each destination. She was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. I’d highly recommend this tour when visiting Bangkok!
Squeezing in as the train passed in the morning and then everyone bargaining as you float by at the floating market were my favorite parts of this excursion. The colors of the umbrellas at the floating market are so festive. And the longtail boat tour around town was fun to take as well.

We are pleased to know you enjoyed the train ride and floating market. Delighted that you appreciated the festivity and boat tour. Thank you for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Thailand Tours team.
We booked this tour and they arrived late for us but always pushing us in a hurry to one shuttle to another without explaining anything to us. We had also reserved with the same company, that at the end of the tour to sent in a Taxi to the airport, and they agreed 24 hours before. At the day of the tour we did ask every guy that picked us up, the guide, and also write the person on charge about this reservation to get to the airport, and the guys of the several shuttles didn't even speak English and the tour guide said NO, that we have to take a taxi by ourselves to the airport. And the person on charge of the company did not answer our messages ( multiple.... we sent.... in the night before the tour, in the morning before the tour and during the tour)
We do NOT recommend the tour, please take it with another company, when we arrived at the railroad market our guide only told us to go and see by ourselves, and be back to the bus at an specific hour..... in the railroad there where other groups of tourists accompanied by their guide explaining everything, and the same happens in the floating market.... NO ONE explains nothing, they just push and hurry you to get back at and specific hour.
At the end of the tour, because we did not received any confirmation about our request for them to arrange our transportation to the airport and if it was already arrange we did try to make it by ourselves.... and in that moment the person on charge of the company starts sending us emails and whatsapp tell us they have already arrange it and paid for it. So we got the car they said they have arrange and paid; and the taxi said we have to paid the ride to the airport cause it has NOT been paid by the company. TOTAL DISSASTER. Also the
person on charge of the company did have a bad treat to us as tourist and clients..... we did us bad words against us and also did also mis-wish our trip....... VERY BAD EXPERIENCE......
DO NOT US THIS COMPANIE IN BANGKOK........
we have use Viator for many years around the world and never have had such a bad experience.

Dear Carlos
First of all our team have confirm to you that you will have to pay extra charge of THB800 If you wish to get drop in Airport at the end of your trip (Cause airport is out of our free transfer area) and you agree to pay for this extra which we have evidence for that and we have reports to Viator for that.
However after you hop on the taxi you refuse to pay for this extra charge by saying to the driver that we will be paying this extra charge for you.
And blame to us that taxi are not there just after you got of the Taxi, But Luckily driver did shot picture of you and we have evidence for that
Please do not do this to any other company.
We have managed taxi for you and we have to bare this charge for nothing also wasting time of driver
Great day at the floating market and we met some new friends on the tour. The tour guide was great. I would definitely invite everyone to experience this tour.

We're thrilled you enjoyed our floating market tour and made new friends. Thank you for recommending us! We hope to serve you again. 😊
Kind regards,
Thailand Tours team.
Both tours were excellent and well worth the visit. We had sufficient time in my opinion within each location and tours were exactly as described. Highly recommend
I had one complaint which has prevented me from giving 5 stars. My hotel pick-up was scheduled for 6:45 am and there were other hotel pick ups. We were warned by the tour guide that the driver would need to drive a little bit fast because it was necessary to be at the Train Market at 9 am.
Going was a very stressful event because driver drove at excessively high speed. This is totally unacceptable because the tour company is well aware of the heavy traffic in Thailand and should have planned accordingly. Passengers lives should not be put at risk due to lack of proper planning.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
We're glad you enjoyed the tours. We apologize for the speeding incident and appreciate your feedback about it.
What an unbelievable experience. Never seen anything like it.
Collected from our hotel and taken to the markets. Guide was helpful but English was not good but Translate apps got us through.
The floating market was a little too touristy now but that is to be expected after Covid etc.
