Overview
This tour offers a rare perspective on Thailand’s famous markets as you head to Ban Kalong Station. The station sits beside traditional salt farms. You board the train here to ride directly into the Maeklong Railway Market. Offering a different angle than standing on the tracks, you see vendors snapping their awnings back just inches from the moving train. You then visit Wat Bang Kung. Roots of a massive Banyan tree hold the entire chapel together. It houses a golden Buddha image from the Ayutthaya era. The temple grounds celebrate Thai heritage with statues depicting ancient boxing stances and warriors. Your evening concludes at the Amphawa Floating Market. Merchants cook fresh seafood on rowboats right next to the canal banks. You can explore old wooden architecture and taste local fruits like pomelo. A relaxing boat trip is included, taking you along the waterways where you can enjoy the charm and atmosphere of this historic community before heading back to your hotel.
