Must do thing if u r first timer to Bangkok
Review by: Lynn B, December 2017
Lots of exhaust smell around you from all the boats. Hard to get up to something to purchase if you want to. Hygiene of the vendors on the boats handing you things is nonexistent. It was a hot sunny day when we went, no water provided to anyone on the boat. Boats ramming into each other on the river. Not a pleasant experience. Had to wait 45 minutes to dock the boat and get off - waste of time.

The drive to the floating market is quite far, but well worth it. Stops will be made along the way to show the Thai way of life! When you get to the market, many other tourists will be there so expect a crowd. Try the food you will never regret it!!! But when it is time to shop for souvenirs and other things, make sure to bargain, don't get pushed to buying, bargain to the deepest discount! Beware it is also very humid and hot.

One of our best tours in Thailand! We went the last week of July. Our guide was Luck and could not be better. We ended up in a private tour And she accommodated the activities and times to our family. I highly recommend this tour and Luck is the best tour guide you can get!! Thank you Luck for giving us so many great memories!!

We had a wonderful trip and would highly recommended this trip. The floating market was very interesting and we enjoyed seeing the cultural events at the Sampran. The buffet luncheon was excellent. Our guide, Neco, was very helpful and was instrumental in getting to locations with plenty of time ahead of the crowds.

The tour was well paced and the tour guide was friendly and helpful. Enjoyed ourselves as we do not have any worries in terms of time and safety during the trip.

The tour was good as a day of relaxing with a short highlight in experiencing the floating markets. Peter, our guide was really good, providing lots of options without trying to sell. Also he spoke very clear and good English.

This tour was definitely worth it. To get out to the floating market was quite a drive, not sure how I would have ever found this place by myself even if I did speak Thai.

I like this tour and I find the experience of taking boat to the market is fun. There is a bit traffic on the river while entering the market so I got a lot tan under the sun.

The tour ran very smoothly from start to finish. We had an excellent guide who answered out questions and gave excellent insight into Thai culture and way of life. An excellent day trip!

Very Good. Unfortunately it was a rainy day and we could not take full advantage of the tour. The rose garden lunch was excellent, but the show was mediocre.

This is an excellent family friendly tour but has an early start! After breakfast, we 2 adults 1 baby were greeted at our hotel lobby by Ms Dana who is by the way a very warm, friendly and helpful tour guide. She speaks excellent English and bonded immediately with our little baby. We were escorted to a mini van and we were the only guests on this tour so it was like a private VIP tour. Our driver was very pleasant and quiet and followed Ms Dana's instructions in Thai. After leaving the hotel, we drove for an hour until we reached the Orchid Farm. It is more of a conservatory rather than a farm. There are quite a few shops and a food court. We spent half an hour here and had our photos taken and made on orchid plates. We then headed to the Elephant Farm. We were asked if we wanted to go on the Elephant Ride to the Jungle and back but as the prices were quite steep, we decided not to go ahead. We returned to the van and drove on. We were asked if we wanted to stop at the Handicraft market but decided not to as it was getting rather hot. We then drove on until we reached the Rose Garden. It takes about 2.5 hours to drive there from our hotel on the Chao Phraya River. The Rose Garden itself was a little bit of a disappointment as there were no roses in sight. However, the buffet lunch at the restaurant was scrumptious and Ms Dana had reserved a table overlooking the river. The lunch options are quite good however not many vegetarian options. We then went to the spa next door for a 30 minutes massage as we had some time to kill before the elephant show and cultural show. The massages were excellent and very relaxing. Ms Dana then came to meet us and escort us to the elephant show. Our little one loved the elephant show and was so excited. We then moved onto the cultural show in the theatre and again, our little one was delighted. The cultural show was authentic and traditional. After the shows, we were driven back to our hotel. It was a very safe and comfy trip. 5s

It's a bit touristy but I would go again
Review by: Justine T, June 2015
This tour was about shopping, the culture show was a watered down representation of what it traditionally is and my guide was very rude. He pointed out street food and said I don't try because I'm "not used to" and kept referring to "my people" aka white people. Ok. I'll be at Mcdonalds where I belong.
