Which one is good to go to floating market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moses Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 Mac is the best if you are really interested in the history of Thailand, its culture. Mac has a specialized higher education - tourism and hospitality. He is one of the elite guides who have a license not only for his native province, but for the whole country. To confirm such a license, you need to pass a rather difficult exam every year. Mac is the youngest of the three. He is also a cat fan. Ohh is good if you love nature and modern technology - he is the owner of an eco-farm and a professional in design and photography. He is also good if you like to talk - he is a great listener. Sunny will entertain you all day if you prefer to listen. He is an excellent organizer and leader, his main job is teaching. As for the floating market, each of them has been there with tourists more than a dozen, if not a hundred times, so I advise you to choose based on their character and hobbies, since in terms of the required amount of knowledge and experience, all three are good. Personal advice: I recommend combining a visit to two markets - the floating one and the railway one - they are both in the same direction from Bangkok, to the west. If you plan to take a lot of photos or videos, then the classic strategy for the railway market is this: you arrive there about 15 minutes before the train, and shoot the train passing through the market from the ground. The train moves quite slowly, so as soon as you have taken a series of photos from the ground, you can get to the station, board the train and shoot the train passing through the market from the vestibule of the last carriage - there is a door with a window and you can see how the sellers restore the market, put up awnings and roll out stalls right behind the train. bkkmfj2648, 10tazione, BL8gPt and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moses Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 By the way: almost the same attraction - market on the rail exists in Hanoi (Vietnam), but there are coffee shops and souvenir shops. Trains are going directly by narrow street. You can visit it with Siamroads guides in Hanoi. vinapu, Olddaddy and BL8gPt 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd sink. and might I add - no functional boats in the floating market in Ayutthaya - 2 days ago. Why? The river waters (Chao Phraya, Lopburi, Pa Sak rivers) were so high from the recent storms up further north - the floating market "stations" where you would normally get onto the boats were pushed up into the ceiling of the floating market structure - so there was no safe way for them to float around and take the tourists to the various market stalls. The vast majority of the market stalls were closed and the place was mostly empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
