• T522: Floating market and monkeys in mangroves

    • TOUR OVERVIEW Price from: 2,000 - 8,000 Baht

    A visit to the famous Damnoen Saduak floating market, an exploration of the Mae Klong train market, a boat trip out into the Gulf of Thailand and an encounter with wild monkeys in the mangroves offer a varied and exciting experience.

    TOUR DESCRIPTION

    After picking you up from your hotel in Bangkok, we'll head south to the Mae Klong Train Market. There, you'll witness vendors selling their wares directly on the tracks of a still-operational railway line! Be prepared for a surprise as the train you're riding on passes through the market! Afterward, we'll visit a small palm sugar factory before taking the short drive to the boat dock at Damnoen Saduak. You'll board a privately chartered motorboat that will take you through the canals and lagoons to the market, giving you a glimpse into authentic waterside life. Once at the market, you can disembark and explore on your own. Stroll along the canals and stop to chat with boats and vendors. At the floating market, you'll have the opportunity to hop on a pedal boat and experience this vibrant market up close. After the morning's activities at the train station and floating markets, we'll head to the river, where we'll board a boat. The journey takes us through a fishing village and out into the river estuary to the mangrove swamps. A group of macaques lives there, many of whom swim to the boat hoping to snag some bananas! Afterwards, we continue further into the river estuary and finally out to sea. Our day concludes with a transfer to your hotel in Bangkok.
