Tour Highlights
Maeklong Railway Market – The Market on the Tracks
One of Thailand’s most unforgettable sights: a train passes directly through a bustling market as vendors quickly move their stalls — then go right back to business!
You’ll walk the tracks, sample local snacks, and capture amazing photos.
Optional Stop: Coconut Sugar Farm
Visit a small, family-run coconut farm where you can see how coconut sugar is made — and even taste it fresh!
A great insight into rural Thai life and traditional food production.
Option 1: Damnoen Saduak Floating Market (Daily)
The most famous floating market in Thailand! Cruise through narrow canals lined with colourful boats selling fresh fruit, handmade goods, and snacks.
Includes a long-tail boat ride into the market.
Once there, you can walk around or hire a paddle boat (local cost) to explore deeper into the floating market action.
Option 2: Amphawa Weekend Market (Fri–Sat–Sun Only). SEE MY TOUR WPA01 FOR DETAILS
Prefer something more local and less touristy? On weekends, you can swap Damnoen Saduak for the Amphawa Floating Market, a lively waterside town full of food stalls, crafts, and friendly locals.
- Amphawa is especially popular with Thai visitors
Lunch (Optional)
We can stop at a recommended riverside restaurant or casual local eatery, depending on your preferences.
Let me know what kind of meal you’d enjoy – traditional Thai, seafood, or light snacks.
