Additional Information

Set out on an adventure to the Maeklong Railway Market, famously known as Talad Rom Hup or the ‘Umbrella Pulldown Market.’ This market, known for being one of the biggest fresh seafood markets in Thailand, is uniquely positioned along the Maeklong Railway lines.

Explore this intriguing market with your local guide offering engaging insights into its functioning and diverse product range. Experience the unique spectacle of market stalls and canopies quickly retracted from the tracks as a train nears, facilitating its smooth passage.

Your voyage next takes you to the acclaimed Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, a famous landmark in Thailand. A short journey on a paddleboat is a delightful precursor to reaching this lively market, where your guide will suggest key spots to visit. Following your market excursion, return to Bangkok during the early afternoon.

  • The boat ride at Damnoen Saduak usually involves a traffic jam. To enhance your customer experience, this tour does not include the boat ride on the canal. However, if there is less boat traffic on the day of your visit and you would like to take a boat trip, your guide can contact the boat vendor for you to guarantee the best price (normally about 150 Baht for a 25-30 minute ride)
  • Due to some remaining Covid-related restrictions, the markets may not be as lively as expected. Not all vendors have fully resumed selling at their stalls
