Review of Bangkok’s private Maeklong Railway and Damnoen Saduak markets tour, with boat ride, local treats, transport, tips, and value advice.

“My wife and I were lucky enough to have Time as our guide and Mr. Vee as our driver! Time was super personable and knowledgeable answering any questions we had about Thai culture and the markets we visited. This tour is the perfect distance outside of Bangkok for a day trip without feeling too rushed. The boat ride on the canals was definitely a highlight! The tour feels a bit overpriced and the nonrefundable cancellation policy is extreme, but it definitely reflects in the quality of the guide. Thank you for a memorable day Time!”
