Travel from Bangkok to explore the Maeklong Railway Market and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Join a tour group to visit the two iconic local markets. Located on the railway tracks, Maeklong Railway Market is also known as Talad Rom Hup. Learn how the market is run and what products are sold here. Watch as market stalls and awnings pull back from the tracks when the train approaches.
Then, head to the famous Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Hop on a paddle boat for a short ride to the market. Meander around the colourful stalls where vendors sell directly from their boats. Take in exotic sights and delicious smells, and try local specialities like mango sticky rice. Your tour guide will introduce you to fantastic buys you shouldn't miss.
Very enjoyable
Everything went on well.
Everything was well planned. Tour guide was very friendly and helpful. Thanks
Overall it was great experience tour conducted by the Bigcountry Experience team, considering consolidating 2 different places in one go within the stipulated time-frame. 1st part of the tour was the ordinary train ride which started some distance away, to Maeklong terminal station. Upon arriving the terminal station, we were given some time to roam around the vicinity. 2nd part of the tour was the floating market tour which includes a non-motorboat ride. At the end of the boat tour, we were given ample time for lunch and rest before returning back to bangkok. To enjoy the railway market fully, it is best to get there by yourself due to limited time available in the tour package
Very good
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.
