A wonderful way to spend the late afternoon and evening. - One of the highlights of our family trip! Our guide Ice was wonderful. He gave interesting insights about each location and answered all our questions about Thailand's history and modern life as well as provided insider tips on shopping and other destinations we should visit. He also treated us to some of the best Thai snacks, as well as recommended a really good restaurant for dinner and taught us how to eat fish the Thai way. The most magical moment was getting up close with the fireflies! We were lucky that it never rained during our trip, so they were abundant. I will say that I wish the tour has an earlier optional start time, so we could have more time in each location. Although Ice arrived perfectly on time and never made us feel rushed. Overall, I definitely recommend this tour!

Amazing tour! - The tour company was very flexible regarding our requests. Our tour guide Pop was very knowledgeable and welcoming. She went out of her way getting us on the train ride at the railway market and finding us fireflies(we saw so many of them!). She also introduced us to a lot of delicious Thai snacks, which we couldn’t have found if by ourselves. Pop is very considerate and responsible, from reaching out a day before to say hello to dropping us off right in front of the message place we were going to next. Overall, it was an amazing tour and we had fun!

A lot of fun for one day - Did a lot in one day! Of all the days in Thailand this one was definitely one of the best! Going to Erowan waterfall was the best part

Such fun experience - We had the tour on 01-Sep-23. Despite booking it the last minute, the confirmation was instant. We had a lovely tour guide Pop who was always happy to assist, our bubbly driver Samran, as well as boat man Wat who brought us to the perfect spot to see and interact with the fireflies! One thing to consider, Maeklong railway market is busier in the morning. Most stalls were closed by the time we got there at half past four (last train is at 5.40). If you want to see all the action, book a morning tour. Personally, a Friday night visit to the Amphawa market is perfect because there are not as many people. It’s only open Friday to Sunday. Had some delish local food there for dinner before heading back to Bangkok. We learned that the best season for fireflies are during rainy season. We were lucky as it just rained and the trees lit up like Christmas trees that night! I have never seen that many fireflies. Lots of them came to us to say hi. Such a fun experience.

Great experience! - It was a wonderful experience throughout. The temple, railway market, and firefly boat ride were all enjoyable and nicely timed. Our tour guide, Ice, is very friendly and answered all our questions happily. Even my 5 year old daughter was comfortable chatting with him and asking him questions about Thailand and the tour sites. He went above and beyond to introduce us to local snacks at the sites, and even got me a surprise birthday fruit cake when he found out that it was my birthday. He truly made the experience very memorable. Water and hand wipes were provided to help us feel comfortable and refreshed. We are truly happy with the experience and will definitely recommend to our friends and family. Thanks again and wishing you the best!

Mesmerizing floating and train market experience - Our amazing guide Lin showed us around shops/food in the floating and train markets. She was very polite and knows the markets very well. It was by all means a once in a lifetime experience and included all what was in the itinerary. The perfect trip for our honeymoon.
