Overall it was great experience tour conducted by the Bigcountry Experience team, considering consolidating 2 different places in one go within the stipulated time-frame. 1st part of the tour was the ordinary train ride which started some distance away, to Maeklong terminal station. Upon arriving the terminal station, we were given some time to roam around the vicinity. 2nd part of the tour was the floating market tour which includes a non-motorboat ride. At the end of the boat tour, we were given ample time for lunch and rest before returning back to bangkok. To enjoy the railway market fully, it is best to get there by yourself due to limited time available in the tour package
