Discover the essence of the Thai capital on this day trip to Mae Klong, Bangkok's famous train market, and the Damnoen Saduak floating market.
Activity Details
Ready to discover two of Bangkok's must-see spots? At the selected time, we'll meet up and board a minibus for an approximately 1.5-hour ride to the town of Mae Klong.
Once there, we'll board a traditional train to start a lovely 1-hour ride through the rural landscapes of Thailand. The journey through Mae Klong will end at a one-of-a-kind market built right on the train tracks. Just before the train arrives, vendors pull back their awnings and clear their goods from the rails. After the train passes, you'll be able to stand right on the tracks and watch as the locomotive rolls very close from the stalls.
We'll explore this incredible spot on foot before hopping back on the minibus for a short 20-minute ride to Damnoen Saduak. On arrival at this charming rural town, we'll board a traditional Thai boat for a 45-minute ride toward the famous floating market.
Along the way, you'll see stalls loaded with vegetables, exotic fruits, souvenirs, and all sorts of other goods, all displayed from boats on the water. After weaving through the canals, we'll dock on one of the market's banks, where you'll have around 1 hour of free time to grab a bite to eat.
Finally, we'll board the minibus for a roughly 2-hour ride back to Bangkok, wrapping up this 8 to 9-hour day trip.
