Go on a discovery tour outside of Bangkok. See the impossible market that shouldn’t be: the Maeklong Railway Market. Visit the quiet Tha Kha Floating Market and witness how fresh fruits and local delicacies are sold from little wooden barges. Explore life on the riverside canals during a relaxing paddle boat ride.
Be picked up at 07:00. Travel away from Bangkok’s city centre for a visit to local markets and countryside neighbourhoods. Take a one-hour drive in a VIP van, leaving the high-rises behind and enter a land of lush landscapes and more traditional wooden architecture.
Stop at a local railway station where a bustling country market has gradually taken over the railway tracks. Be taken in a less crowded local café located by the track. Notice the sudden activity closely when a train pulls into the station, as the vendors quickly remove their stalls from the tracks. Then, after the train departs, watch them set up shop and resume business as usual.
Continue to the charming and quaint floating market Tha Kha. Here, take a stroll around the market and admire the floating shops, stalled out on traditional sampan boats. Take in the lifestyle of the locals and leave the main market area for a relaxing paddle boat ride. Pass by an old section of the floating market and enter a labyrinth of quiet canals. See the different houses built alongside the waterways and catch glimpses of local life in this rural Thai province.
Conclude this remarkable exploration of the countryside by having a nice lunch meal at a traditional Thai house in a natural setting of beautiful garden. After lunch, return to Bangkok’s sprawling city centre. (L)
