The floating markets of Bangkok are foodie heaven! Away from the hustle and bustle of the city is a tranquil escape into the local Thai culture. Floating to these food stalls along the riverbanks is an outstanding way to taste delectable local treats. With your amazing Bangkok local by your side, you will have an adventure of a lifetime in a floating market tour! The Amphawa floating market is one of the most peaceful around Bangkok! Located in a serene village along the river, this relaxing floating market offers a diverse array of local products. The not too distant Tha Ka floating market is another fabulous traditional scene to gather the best local produce. Floating downstream on a captivating floating market tour from Bangkok is the best way to shop for local goodies. If you are searching for an authentic Thai experience, look no further than a Bangkok floating market tour. With your welcoming local, it will be a fantastic voyage!
This was a really great experience, especially since my 4 teenagers can sometimes lose interest fast. Not this time! The day had just enough enough switching of activities to keep everyone happy as we didn't stay in any one place (or boat) too long. The van they picked us up in couldn't have been nicer - I mean it was first class! At the floating market, the canal boat ride we took before we switched to a paddle boat for the floating market was really nice - we enjoyed seeing the different 'neighborhoods' and we saw several huge monitor lizards. I do feel like going with With Locals made the experience better than most of those I have done with Get Your Guide or Viator. It was the little things like Piyaporn taking the initiative to grab things for us at the floating market (that she paid for) like bananas fried in coconut milk, coconut ice cream, mango sticky rice, etc. She would just grab something and say "Try this!". Or the cold wet towels when we got back in the van at the end of the day to head home. And the super nice driver we had. And I'm not sure if it happens on every booking, but we also got to make a quick stop (on the canal tour) at a property with some amazing old Chinese boats and some of the most beautiful large Thai carvings I have seen since arriving. I wasn't sure if driving an hour and half from Bangkok would be worth it but it totally was. I've never seen anything like the floating market and when you couple that with canal tour, the railway market and coconut farm - it was a total yes for us. And I would absolutely book with With Locals again.
Artty was a wonderful guide. He made sure we saw what we asked to do and was very patient with us as one person had a bad knee. He took photos for us all along the way. We would book with Artty again.
We had a realy fantastic day out toghether with Piyaporn. She was a very nice person and know the area and the people. We are glad we choose to get a personal guide that only have focus to teach us about what we experience. We have a big comfortable van with a good driver for us self. Well worth the money.
The Floating Market Bites And Boat Tour was very enjoyable. Priyaporn was an excellent guide with a lot of knowledge of all the products in the market. We could taste a lot of it. She is a very nice person who made us feel at ease.
