The railway market is... - The railway market is worth seeing and the guide knows when to take you there. The floating market isn't on the canal anymore but on the canal bank which is still nice to see. As it is a long ride to the places you need a sociable guide, which Paul truly was.

Lights, locomotives and longtails. - Kitty (guide) and Jaroen (driver) were very engaging, accommodating and humorous. We were immersed in history, culture, natural beauty and delicious street food and throughly enjoyed our time with them. Highly recommend them both.

Good tour, long drive - I enjoyed the train market, the fireflies, the floating market and the really cool temple. Our guide Oui was very kind and accommodating to our needs. The drive there was long, and because of traffic and construction, we missed the 2:30 train and then waited for the 3:30. That was fine but it put us behind schedule. The floating market is on the sides of the river. There are not really any boats selling items to you on the river. It is not over crowded like the Damnoen Saduak market ( which is a tourist trap) so I liked it better. I also liked being there in the evening because it was cooler and we got to see the fireflies. The drive back was very long. The traffic was terrible. We didn’t get to our hotel until well after 11pm so it made for a long journey. I recommend this tour because it is more unique than the usual floating market tour, but just be warned that getting there and back is a long drive. A good option would be to stay the night there and make arrangements to come back the next day.

BUYER BEWARE- Not a real floating market. - The “floating market” description is completely misleading. It’s a market with stalls near the water NOT vendors selling food/goods from their boat. Six of the eight passengers on our trip specifically booked this tour expecting an actual floating market. It is also more than 4 hours round trip which wasn’t specified. We think it was a wasteful journey.
