Bangkok trips

TOUR OVERVIEW Price from: 1,850 - 6,150 Baht

Visit the Khlong Lat Mayom and Taling Chan floating markets in the western suburbs of Bangkok. We will reach the markets via Bangkok's old canals.

TOUR DESCRIPTION

On this half-day tour, we'll visit the Taling Chan and Lat Mayom floating markets. To give you a true taste of city life and the markets themselves, we'll travel like a local. Our guide will pick you up from your hotel, and we'll take the appropriate public transport to the boat dock. Don't worry, you won't have to navigate Bangkok's busy public transport system – our guide will be with you every step of the way. Once at the dock, we'll board the boat to the markets. The journey takes you through the network of canals in western Bangkok, and from this special vantage point, you'll enjoy unique views of the city and the vibrant life along the canal banks. Our first stop in the morning is the bustling Taling Chan floating market on land. This market exudes an authentic, local atmosphere and isn't frequented by many foreign visitors. Here, you'll have the perfect opportunity to sample local specialties, as there's a wide variety of street food stalls. Our next stop is the Klong Lat Mayom floating market, another colorful market on the canal banks. Besides a wide selection of fresh produce, locals flock here to eat, and it's a great place to sample authentic Thai dishes. After visiting the market, we will return to your hotel. Please note: The return boat trip to the market depends on the local lock gates. Sometimes the lock gates are closed due to high water, making a boat trip impossible. If a boat trip is not possible, we can conduct the tour by minibus (at no extra cost or price difference). There is also the option to take a boat trip during the market visit, exploring the surrounding canals. This option is particularly interesting if you are arriving by minibus. Please note: Don't expect a bustling atmosphere at these floating markets, as most of the market activity, trade, and dining takes place on land. These markets are full of vibrant local life and businesses and are definitely worth a visit. Please note: We use public transportation for transfers to and from the boat dock. No minibus or private transport is provided. This is a fantastic opportunity to experience the authentic Bangkok up close. Depending on your hotel's location and the availability of local transport on the day, you can use the Skytrain, subway, taxi, or tuk-tuk. Since not all factors are always within our control, we ask for your flexibility on this tour. We hope you'll be open to new experiences and adventures.
