Overview

Magical markets and fantastic food – this is Thailand in a nutshell. On this small group tour, you'll visit the floating market of Damnoen and the famous Maeklong Railway market.

Arriving at Damonen floating market, you'll hop into a long-tailed boat and join the congested canals of colourful canoes. Laden with fresh produce, vendors float downstream selling to throngs of shoppers on the banks. The perfect place to practice your bargaining skills.

Moving on, we'll head to the Maeklong Railway market. Here, rows of stalls set up on the tracks and shut shop as soon as they hear the trains approaching. And when they pass, it's back to business as usual – a real Thai spectacle.

What to expect

  1. Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
    2h 30m
    Your journey commences with a leisurely drive through rice paddies and salt fields in the direction to Damnoen Saduak, situated 110 km west of Bangkok. The tour continues with a 30 minutes speedboat trip along a fruit plantation to see Thai houses and the traditional way of life. Arrive at Damnoen Saduak Floating Market and be fascinated by boats of various shapes and sizes used by local merchants to ferry their goods. Hire one of the small boats at the market and shop local products!

    Your next stop will be the Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Rom Hub). It is one of the largest fresh seafood markets in Thailand, and is centered around the track of the Maeklong Railway. When trains approach, the awnings and shop fronts are moved back from the rails, and then replaced once the train has passed.

    After this exciting half-day excursion your guide will drop you off at your accommodation in Bangkok Downtown.
