Highlights
Start your adventure with a pick-up from your Bangkok hotel and journey to the provinces of Ratchaburi and Samut Songkhram to explore the region's most iconic attractions.
Visit to the fascinating Maeklong Railway Market, also known as the "Risky Market," where vendors set up stalls directly on the train tracks. Witness the remarkable sight of the bustling market pausing as a train passes through—an unforgettable experience!
Next, enjoy a long-tail speedboat ride through the waterways to the vibrant Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, where you can marvel at the lively commerce taking place on the water. Additional stops include Wat Kai Bang Kung, a unique Buddhist temple enveloped by the roots of a towering banyan tree.
Savor a delicious Thai lunch at a local restaurant before returning to your hotel in Bangkok bringing your day of cultural discovery to a close.
Itinerary
Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Rom Hub)
30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeMaeklong Railway Market is a traditional Thai market selling fresh vegetables, food and fruit. What makes the market special is that it occupies part of a train line. A few times a day, there’s a train running directly through the market. A few minutes before the train comes, vendors lower their umbrellas and move some of their produce away from the train tracks. Some are left on the ground, with the train passing right over them. Amazingly, nothing gets damaged or broken, and as soon as the train passes, the vendors move their goods back onto the tracks and continue as normal (until the next train arrives).Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedFamous for its tourist-friendly floating markets, Damnoen Saduak is the one you’ll find in the tourist literature on Thailand. Bring your camera along to witness the river packed with wooden boats overflowing with fruit and vegetables, which they sell to people standing on land. The scene is colourful and loud; just as you’d expect from a Thai market. It is just 100km from Bangkok.Amphawa

1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeThis unique, colourful temple is inside of roots of a banyan tree. This area is a mass of history.
