See Maeklong Railway Market and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market on a guided Bangkok day trip with boat ride, shopping, and local food.

“Really good day. Tammy the guide was fun and very informative. Coach left on time, got to the floating market after a comfort break en route, got the boat round the market, then time for shopping and a break. Then onto the train market where the highlight was the 2.30 train coming in literally inches away from where we were standing. Very good day, highly recommended”
