Description
Explore the Maeklong Railway Market and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market on a private tour. Ride a paddle boat, visit a coconut sugar-making house, and enjoy a riverside lunch.
Begin your adventure at the Maeklong Railway Market, where local life meets one unforgettable moment—a train cruising straight through the middle of the market. Follow your guide through stalls packed with colorful produce, street snacks, and handmade goods.
As the train approaches, watch in awe as vendors swiftly fold up umbrellas and pull back their wares, then set everything back up as if nothing happened. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that captures the energy, hustle, and uniqueness of Thai market culture.
Next, visit Tao Tan Doem 2, a traditional Thai house where coconut sugar is made the old-fashioned way. Learn how locals tap coconut trees, boil the sap, and craft the rich, golden sugar over a wood-fired stove. This hands-on stop offers a glimpse into rural Thai life and the heritage behind one of the country's most loved ingredients.
You'll also tour a charming wooden house that reflects classic Thai architecture. Don’t miss the chance to sample warm, freshly made coconut sugar—it’s a sweet treat straight from the source.
End your day with a scenic paddle boat ride through the lively Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Cruise along narrow canals as vendors in boats offer tropical fruits, coconut ice cream, and sizzling street food.
After your ride, enjoy a tasty riverside lunch at a local restaurant, soaking in the canal-side views and peaceful atmosphere. Wrap up your visit with a stroll through the market's walkway—perfect for souvenir shopping, people-watching, or snapping a few last photos before heading back to Bangkok.
