Highlights

Escape the bustle of Bangkok's sprawling metropolis and embark on an adventure outside the capital. Discover some local-favourite cultural spots out of the city. Get ready for gorgeous ancient temples and colourful local life throughout this full-day tour.

Travel with a local guide in a small group tour from Bangkok to visit atmospheric cultural gems. You'll witness the charming local way of life along the lines of the Maeklong Railway Market. Explore the Ayutthaya-era Wat Bang Kung Temple. Then, visit the Amphawa Floating Market where you'll spot fireflies on an early evening boat tour.

Itinerary

  • Pick up (10:30AM-11:30AM)

    Pick up from your accommodation/meeting point.
  • Maeklong Train Market

    Firmly off the tourist train, this vibrant local market dates back over 100 years. While the fresh local produce, trinkets and souvenirs are worth browsing, the real attraction is the steam train that thunders through several times a day, sending market vendors scattering.
  • Wat Bang Kung

    Hidden inside the roots of an ancient Banyan tree, you will find statues dedicated to the long-gone soldiers and generals who protected Thailand from the Burmese in the 1800s.
  • Amphawa Floating Market

    View this riverside market and see vendors sell delicious treats like sweets and seafood, or browse some of the shophouses and restaurants.
  • Firefly Boat Tour

    The tour finishes with a riverboat ride and the chance to spot shimmering fireflies hovering above the water.
  • Drop off (9:00 PM)

    Drop off back at your accommodation/meeting point.

Had a fun time seeing the train passing by you at a hair's breath. My wife absolutely loved the rustic atmosphere of Amphawa Floating Market. This could be one of the few destinations not overwhelmed by regular tourists and if only we can stay here longer!

Two fun markets to explore. Souvenir shopping is probably better at the rail market compared to the floating market. Sunset boat trip was very enjoyable and we were able to see fireflies even though it was out of season. The transport was comfortable and our guide Pinporn was well organized and good fun.

Angie is a very interactive and happy go lucky guide. She takes care of all of us well and shares with us a lot of her knowledge on the food, history and culture of Thailand. Thanks alot for your patience Angie! Also not forgetting the driver. The overall experience has been wonderful! I appreciate the punctuality as well!

While the main attractions that we booked were a little underwhelming, the driver cum tour guide was very knowledgeable. She would tell us the cheapest places to get certain stuffs and the best spots for photo. We liked her enthusiasm in explaining the sights we were brought to. There were more activities included in the tour that we thought we signed up for. We were brought to a temple with Ayutthaya period architecture and a long tail boat ride to see firefly included in the day tour. Excellent value for money for first timers
