Oddi was exceptionally descriptive about both markets and along the way she talked to us about many Thailand customs and ways of everyday living and traditions of the people. She was very patient and helpful with our many questions and requests. She made us feel like we were family. So caring and kind. The driver drove very safely and followed all the traffic rules. Highly recommend Oddi!!! I would give her 10 stars if I could!!!! We will miss her dearly.

Great private tour that picked us up from the hotel. Mrs. Oudy ( not sure how to spell her name) was very detailed in her explanation and let us try different foods. Overall great experience at both the railroad market and the floating market was excellent! Truly the highlight!!

This was an absolute highlight of Bangkok and a must if I’m the area and I don’t have a negative thing to say.
We had Thai (apologies if spelt wrong!) and she was wonderful. Thai took us to the coconut farm which was not on the itinerary and we were travelling with someone who has a severe nut allergy. Thai made sure we had the full experience with this allergy and took us to a restaurant who she knew could cater for it.
She bought us some coconut pancakes and dried banana and made sure we had change to use toilet facilities and provided tissues as some of there did not have any!!
The trip is a unique experience and we were taken to the best spots in order to see things. If you’re travelling with children or more mature adults don’t discount as this was enjoyed by us all of all ages in the group.
Would give this more than 5 stars if we could. Would highly recommend!!

What a fantastic tour! We absolutely had an incredible experience from start to finish! The private transportation was impeccable! The Railway market spot was just superb! We had food and drink and couldn’t have been better value for money or a better spot! The guide was so accommodating for our autistic son! We popped by a coconut farm and had an awesome experience there too! Just amazing! Then onto the floating marked and were treated like royalty. The boat was brilliant with a shade! The houses and market were spectacular. Just all round perfection really. Can’t recommend highly enough! Amazing! Loved every second!

Cindy was a superb tour guide. She's very knowledgeable and speaks English well. She took good care of us during our time together and also shared lots of interesting information. The driver was also friendly and professional.
The railway market is a short but interesting experience. Floating market was a tourist trap, as expected, but the boat ride was fun. Our boatman was great with his maneuvering skills on water.

Meaklong and floating market trip was BS. Tour guide, Jojo, called the night before and changed pickup times from 0700 to 0900. We were supposed to go to railway first but went to the floating market first instead and ended up missing the train at the Maeklong market which was the whole point of us booking the trip. Floating market was a tourist trap. Was not an actual traditional floating market. On the way back our driver took us to a gem factory (not part of the tour) where we were pressure sold jewelry. Guide smelled like smoke. He kept asking us how big our house was and what kind of cars we drove. He also slept in the front seat on the way back to our hotel and also took non-stop selfies through the tour. Highly recommend not booking with him. Avoid at all costs.

We had a great tour day, walking through the street markets, the Damnoen Saduak floating market by boat, and seeing the Mekong Railway Market area. Our tour guide, Nok, was on time, brought us in a private car, and escorted us throughout the trip. It was a beautiful break to take a long drive from the big city of Bangkok. She impressed us the most by returning a pair of glasses to our hotel, that were accidently left in the car after our tour. We enjoyed the tour!
