Highlights
  • Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Rom Hub) - We will take you on a walk along the market which actually sits atop the train tracks and try our tropical fruits and food from around the area until a little warning bell rings over the speaker before the train comes. The awnings are pulled back only as far as necessary, the baskets of fruit and vegetables are shifted just enough as to not be sliced by the metal wheels. Amazingly, nothing is damaged or broken, and as soon as the train passes, vendors continue as normal.

Additional Information

Explore three incredible destinations in a single day. At first glance, Thailand’s markets may appear similar, but one truly stands out. Experience the remarkable Maeklong Railway Market, where a train line runs directly through the market, with trains passing so close you could reach out and touch them. The most astonishing part is how the canopies and storefronts adapt, seamlessly enveloping the train as it passes by. Next, embark on a long-tail boat journey along the canals to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. This is an excellent opportunity to navigate the meandering waterways, which are otherwise inaccessible on foot. Later, discover an ancient hidden temple where all phenomena coalesce; the lines between nature and human construction are blurred, with trees and temple architecture intermingled, creating a unique fusion of the organic and the built environment.
