Maeklong Railway Market and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market Day Tour

This half-day tour combines two of Thailand's best known markets in one trip from Bangkok, running from 7 am to 3 pm. It pairs Maeklong Railway Market, where a working train passes within feet of the stalls, with Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, where vendors sell from rowing boats along a canal.

At Maeklong, stallholders sell fruit, vegetables and dried goods set up along the working railway line itself. Several times a day, a real train comes through, and in the moments before it arrives, vendors swiftly pull back their awnings, baskets and produce from the tracks, then reset everything within moments of the train clearing through, a routine repeated for generations that still draws a crowd of onlookers and cameras. From there, the tour moves to Damnoen Saduak, where the canal fills with rowing boats piled high with fresh fruit, noodles and handicrafts, and you can walk the wooden walkways or take a boat out for a closer look at the trade happening on the water.

A boat ride at the floating market can be added at booking for up to 5 people. Rayna's local team in Thailand handles your ticket and transfer booking and stays reachable for support before your day out.
