Bangkok Floating Market

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market sits on a canal dug between 1866 and 1868 by order of King Rama IV to connect the Ratchaburi and Samut Sakhon provinces. Today it is one of Thailand's best known floating markets, with a visit typically taking a couple of hours from its 8 am opening.

Local vendors row boats packed with goods along the canal, selling souvenirs and classic Thai wares alongside fresh fruit, vegetables, drinks, handmade sweets and seafood, much as they have for generations before shopping malls took over. Walking the market's wooden walkways puts you close to this trade, and hiring a small boat lets you glide through the busier stretches of canal for a slower, on-the-water look at the stalls and the everyday transactions playing out around you. Where your ticket includes it, a roundtrip hotel transfer covers the trip out from Bangkok and back.

A boat ride for up to 5 people can be added at booking for a closer look at the busier canal stretches. Rayna's local team in Thailand handles your ticket and transfer booking, and stays reachable for support before your visit.
