Description

Explore Thailand's world-famous markets on this tour. Visit the town of Mae Klong and discover local products and goods at its popular railway market. Then, head to the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market where you can taste and shop for local food. After meeting your guide, leave the city of Bangkok and travel by road until you reach the small town of Mae Klong. This fresh local outdoor market is something you will not soon forget. We will visit and walk through the narrow market stalls along the train tracks. Vendors sell everything from fresh fruits and vegetables, dried shrimp, fresh fish, fresh meats and offer many prepared foods to buy. The fresh market is located along the tracks of a functioning commuter train. It’s truly amazing to watch as the public transportation train comes through the market and the vendors will pull aside their tents, umbrellas, stalls and fresh foods to allow for room for the train to pass in between their stalls and the tracks. The Train Market makes some great photos & videos to bring home and leaves you with a memory of a lifetime. Next, continue your journey to the Thai province of Ratchaburi to visit the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. It’s been an active place for locals for over 150 years. There you will take a typical paddle boat to discover the market and sail along the canals. See how locals buy and sell from boat to boat. Vendors sell everything on boats such as fruits, foods, snacks freshly prepared food directly from the local vendors along the canals Then, enjoy some free time to walk through the town's narrow streets, taste local products, and observe people's lifestyles before returning to Bangkok.
