    Marco, bro, you're a legend! I love your videos mate. I live about 20 mins away from that floating market and you couldn't drag me there for any sum. I just can't stand those crowded, rip-off tourist traps, but good on you for taking one for the team. I see old mate boat driver didn't bother opening his Chang. He would've taken it back to the vendor for a refund later. Next time, crack it open for him!

    This floating market looks miles better than the Pattaya one but why can't they clean up the water? BTW, I was told years ago when abroad to never accept gifts from strangers in case there was contraband hidden in them and maybe the tourists there are just being super cautious as Thailand has some serious draconian laws and penalties if caught for that kind of thing. Loving the shirt you are rocking, good find!

    Good old snake oil salesman, next time take an Aussie Eastern Brown or Tiger Snake for him to hang around his neck, make sure you tell him they are safe...lol
    Everyone knows that the tourist traps in Thailand are there to rip you off, but as long as you only spend what you are prepared to lose its still an interesting experience.
    Next video ....hire a jetski, then you will see major rip-offs 😞

    At reptile expos here in BC a photo with a python is around the same price. Insane. I have a California King snake and I let people hold him for free haha.
    Lady at the satay shop said pork. Not cock. Lolol cool market! The murky brown water looks a lot like the river in Winnipeg where I grew up. Its called the red river, it looks brown like that and the reason is because the local mines discharged their ore processing wastes into the river which turns the water brown or red. Could be the same for this one....or just pollution 😂

      @denontour ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@marcoroams it's illegal to buy Buddha statues as souvenirs in Thailand. This is because making Buddha statues and other related items is actually a job for monks and not for laymen. It's also a crime to export any Buddha statue from Thailand. This is also to prevent looting of Shrines and Temples.

    Stop eating that pre-cooked meat from vendors, bro. You put yourself at risk of serious food poisoning. I've seen it happen, and as a chef for the last 20 years I know how massively risky it is to eat random unchilled meat like that. Even if they reheat it it does not lessen the risk.
