Private Tour: Amphawa Floating Market & Maeklong Railway Market

About this activity

The trip starts in Bangkok from your hotel.

Once at the famous Maeklong Railway Market, you’ll walk around the bustling market stalls laying on both sides of the railway tracks then watch shopkeepers scramble to move their merchandise out of the way of the oncoming trains!

Next, we drive to Wat Kai Bang Krung an iconic temple, known for its roots and branches of a banyan tree which over the centuries have surrounded the building, that houses a golden Buddha.

Afterward we continue to the charming Amphawa Floating Market. You’ll take a stroll along the canal where you can see rowing boats, wooden Thai houses, traditional shops and stalls selling souvenirs, local foods & products.

You’ll have a chance to taste an array of exotic Thai foods while trying out your haggling skills. When you’ve exhausted your taste buds we’ll take a traditional riverboat down the Amphawa River. There we see local people living off the river in their traditional wooden homes set above the water.
