What you'll do

This half-day tour from Bangkok takes you to two of the most amazing local markets in Thailand. The Maeklong Railway Market, also known as "Talad Rom Hoop" in Thai, is a unique market where stall holders quickly whisk their stock away to allow the train to pass. The process happens so quickly that you will feel absolutely thrilled from this unique moment. The tour also takes you to the floating market by long-tailed boat, where you can admire the canal and local plantations as you cruise along it. At the floating market, you are free to explore the market at your leisure, experiencing the colorful market and watching the merchants as they paddle along the congested canals in sturdy canoes laden with fresh fruits and vegetables, selling to shoppers on the river bank.
