“I planned to visit Makelong Railway Market and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market and had searched for many companies for this day trip. Bankok Beyong replied me quickly. Through the price was a bit high for me, it was value for money. The company picked us up with a very comfortable car to the attraction. The driver was very friendly and drove safely. As we were hot, he frequently asked us to drink the cold water that he bought us. The company arranged Jenny who spoke well English as our guide. She was informative. She told us a lot regarding the attraction as well as the life of Thai. It let us knew more about the Thai which was out of my expectation”
