Bangkok: Floating Market, Maeklong Train Market & Dragon Temple

About this activity

Experience three of Thailand’s iconic highlights on one carefully curated journey—your Bangkok Day Trip—designed to deliver greater value at every stop.

Begin at the Maeklong Railway Market, where the train passes just inches from the market stalls—an extraordinary and memorable start.

Continue to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, where an extended longtail boat ride lets you explore the canals, observe local life, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere.

The journey then leads to the Dragon Temple (Wat Samphran), a striking pink tower wrapped by a giant dragon, with panoramic views from the top.

A smaller group ensures better access, a comfortable pace, and more time at each destination.

Travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with an English-speaking guide for a seamless journey. Multi-language audio guide available via QR code (bring smartphone & earphones).

The itinerary may be adjusted due to weather, traffic conditions, or operational requirements.
