Great all in one tour - We originally wanted to see only the floating market, but decided to opt for this tour that including visiting the train station and market. We are super glad we did it. It was a comfortable ride with the interesting guide Num. She was a source of the valuable and fun information. The included boat ride in the floating market was a great bonus. All in all, great way to see both and not break a bank.

Convenient transportation to awesome attractions, boat ride was a rip off - Great value for the places visited. Nam our guide was friendly, funny and really great. Bus ride was comfortable though would have opted for a smaller group (we were 30). The train stop was awesome and scary at first, didn't realize how close you would get. the only reason this trip really missed expectations was for the floating market. I thought we would spend 30-45 minutes. Really it was 15minutes making 1 "block" around what was 1 market canal and 3 residential/undeveloped canals. Felt like a rip off (granted the boat is a 3rd party that was just hired for our group). We all got off asking "that's it?". Would recommend to the tour operator here to secure a better boat company for a full circuit of the floating market. We didn't even have a chance to buy anything as it was over before we knew it.

Rainy, Late, but Good! - We did enjoy the tour. The driver & tour guide were 1 hour late, rain & wrong hotel was the issue.
Floating Market- we wished it was longer, it was about 35 minutes, we didn’t make any stops, in hindsight, you need to ask the driver to stop. DO NOT hold the loris monkey, adorable but have fleas. We were offered lunch but declined.
Train Market was a 20 minute stop. The train goes thru every 2 hrs, we got to the station just in time to see it. It was pretty fun to see it.
They dropped us off at the weekend market, which was wonderful & may have been out of the way.
Our guide was pleasant but gave us little information about each location, history etc. We needed to ask questions in order to learn.
