Description
Discover the Maeklong Railway Market and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market on a guided tour. Watch vendors pull back their awnings as a train passes through and explore the bustling waterways by boat.
Depart from your hotel in Bangkok by van and enjoy a charming local train ride from rural train station to Maeklong Railway Station (Nearby Maeklong Railway Market). This short journey takes you through peaceful coastal villages, salt farms, and traditional communities — offering a rare glimpse of Thailand’s slow‑life culture.
Walk inside and explore the Maeklong Railway Market, one of Thailand’s most unique and eye-catching attractions. This lively local market sits directly on active railway tracks, where vendors sell fresh seafood, fruits, vegetables, and traditional snacks just inches from the rails.
The highlight is the famous “umbrella-pulling scene”: moments before the train arrives or departs, vendors swiftly fold back their awnings and pull their goods away from the tracks with impressive coordination. As the train slowly passes through the narrow market, watch this extraordinary daily routine up close.
The atmosphere is vibrant and authentic, offering a glimpse into the everyday life of the Maeklong community and a rare experience found nowhere else in the world.
Next, Head to the pier and ride a long-tail boat through the canal to explore the bustling waterways, observe traditional riverside life and enter to the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, Thailand’s most iconic floating market, located along a historic canal dug during the reign of King Rama IV. The market is famous for its wooden boats paddled by local vendors selling tropical fruits, Thai desserts, noodles, and handmade crafts.
After finish exploring Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, Van will come back to Bangkok and send customers at their hotel.
