Price From $117.78 per person
Lowest Price Guarantee
Amphawa is one of the most popular floating market near Bangkok, with visitors almost exclusively Thai. Located 50 km from Bangkok this once small village was apparently already present in the mid-Seventeenth Century. It has become such a magnet for Thai weekenders that food stalls have grown from the riverbanks and stretched far into the surrounding streets. • Visit Thailand's floating markets on an immersive half day trip from Bangkok • Shop by boat along a riverbank in a longtail boat at a floating market • Buy plenty of unique and inexpensive traditional Thai snacks - the perfect souveniers from your trip! • Watch a train pass through the middle of a bustling market at Maeklong Railway Market

Guide and driver were brilliant. Lots to see and do, so different to the UK. Finished with a super boat trip to see fireflies.

highly recommended , this is a must tour while visiting bangkok , the whole experience of the maeklong railway track market and the train passing through it is simply amazing , however i would like to mention that a more appropriate place must be identified for viewing the passing of the train , the tour guide must be more aware of this and the tour company should look into this specifically ... we couldn't get a good spot but still worth the experience. The amphawa floating market experience was also amazing ,, the river side boats with restaurants on it and seating for food .. the boat ride itself around the island .. worth the money and time ...

This was a great tour, it was not a huge bus with 40 people so we got personal attention. The tour guide was great and it was amazing to see these local markets bring life to how people live daily here. I think it is something my daughters will never forget.

The price of the tour is not the same as the page. I didn't have much time, so I decided to pay for it. The value is almost double and it is better if they do it on their own. The guide gives almost no information, only takes you places and the boat tour costs only 50 baths. I think it's overrated. Also, my hotel was out of the area but on the way to the places we visited and so I asked to be picked up there and they did not accept it. I took a taxi downtown and then stopped by my hotel on the way. Fortunately, on the way back I was left on the street near the hotel because they realized I was on the way. In general I think it is better to do it on your own.

We booked this tour because it combined two characteristic tours of Bangkok, the train market and the floating market of Amphawa which is not as chaotic as the other. On time they picked us up from the tree and reported us as scheduled. In addition it was included boat ride at 18.10 but in the dark is not the best (we did just arrived (n 2 people 100bath) better so you can see better. The guide explained where we went and where the meeting points were.... but no description or curiosity (but the places speak for themselves) overall nice ride and great price (in 2 people 2.900bath) Perfect.
