It was impressive experience, well operated trip. However, boat to see firefly was boring because could not see much firefly. Also, time between seeing 2 trains passing by needs to fulfil by taking us to visit the temple nearby or surrounding area.

Your experience

Of markets, trains, yums and whoas.

Start your day with a seamless transfer from your hotel to the bustling Maeklong Market, with your expert local guide. The sight of a marketplace right in the middle of railway tracks might surprise you, but it's shortlived. You'll soon be swooning over all the amazing local produce you can get your hands on. The delicious tropical fruits, veggies, and seafood will have you reaching for your shopping bag quicker than you can say 'I want all of it."

Ask your guide to help you out with the must-tries. Watch how smoothly and swiftly the locals uproot the market from the tracks for the tourist train to pass by, and then bring it right back like nothing happened.

Amphaw-oah

Sail towards the Amphawa Canals, lined by homes of residents, as you approach the vibrant floating market. Eat and sip on local delights: from plain steamed fish and grilled squid to coconut ice cream and fresh juices, the market has it all. You've filled your tummy, now it's your heart's turn. Hop on a boat tour to head to a dark, quiet area where fireflies steal the show with their glow.
