Highlights
Step into two of Thailand’s most unique markets on this full-day adventure from Bangkok. Begin at the lively Maeklong Railway Market, where fresh seafood and colorful produce are sold just inches from the tracks—and vendors swiftly pull back their stalls as the train rolls through. Then head to the famous Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, where boats piled high with fruits, snacks, and souvenirs create a buzzing scene on the canals.

From snapping photos of the train passing through the market to sampling treats like mango sticky rice, pad thai, and noodle soups, you’ll experience Thailand’s traditions up close before returning to Bangkok in the afternoon.

The tour was very well organised and went like clockwork. We were able to take fabulous photos and videos all thanks to the tour guide's organisation. The passenger van and driver was of a high standard. Highly recommended tour to experience!
Pelago help center (Amelia & Shawn) is very responsive & followed up promptly. The provider driver from Big Country contacted us via email the day before for the hotel pickup. Tour guide Ms Tum Tum is responsible & entertaining. The whole program was smooth and pleasant.
Enjoyed the trip thoroughly. Very interesting experience to see how the locals manage their way of living. Both the guide and the driver are very professional who took great of us, as well as other tour guests in the group. The guide will always initiate to take photos for us.
First time using pelago. Easy and convienent. Good service. They take good care of tourist safety. Thumbs up👍
Enjoyable and experiential visit to the Rail and floating market. TOM was a splendid guide. He is helpful, responsible and caring. Nice touch with providing chill bottled water and fresh paper wipes. Highly recommended
It was a fun trip, hotel pick up have to gather about 45mins to an hour earlier. Time spent at Railway market isn't long however decent enough. Tour guide will find you best opportunity for photo taking. Our tour guide is Kiwi, she is helpful and took care of our young kid. Floating market experience was great as well, though things sold there was more ex, we bought for the experience. Coconut pancake 100Baht and Jackfruit sold at 100Baht each, I bought a Batik dress at 400Baht from 800 Baht, not sure what is the cost of similar Batik at Pratunam. Bought a Thai Boxing shorts for my boy at 250Baht.
