One of the most popular Bangkok experiences, enjoy the sights, smells and sounds of the famous Damnoen Saduak Floating Market where you will find hundreds of Thai style canoes laden with fruits, vegetables, sweets and meats.

• Pick-up and drop-off from central Bangkok hotels 
• Air-conditioned transportation
• Long tail speed-boat cruise to the Damnern Saduak Floating Markets
• Services of an English-speaking guide

High on the list of most visitors ‘things to do’ Damnern Saduak Floating market is a truly colourful experience. Situated 60 miles from Bangkok, the seemingly chaotic canals or 'khlongs' are filled with flat boats piled high with fresh produce, each jockeying for position and paddled by ladies ready to stop and bargain at a moment's notice. Your journey to the market includes an exciting long tail speed-boat ride through the marshes, past traditional stilt houses and scenes that have changed little over the centuries. As you speed across the water, your experienced English-speaking guide will provide a colourful overview of the market and what to expect when you arrive. There is plenty of free time to explore the market and your guide will be happy to arrange a local boat ride through the markets (optional extra) should you wish to get closer to the vendors.

Casual. Dress according to the weather for that day. It is recommended you take a sunhat and a bottle of water.  Over the years, the floating market has become more commercial as more tourists show up, so don’t be surprised to see one or two less than authentic products for sale by the local vendors.
