Highlights
  • Bangkok - Pickup from hotel and travel to Maeklong market.
  • Samut Sakhon - The whitish salt field, not a rice field, of course. A special bonus tour for our guests who join our floating and railway market tour in 2020. This sea salt is produced by Thai local wisdom. The salt farmer will rotate the sea water in different levels matching the strength of wind and sunlight. The rotation will continue until the salt becomes a “salt mountain” which are ready for cooking, skincare, and agriculture. On the Highway 35 in Samut Sakhorn province, our guide will lead you to rub the salt to your hand and take amazing photos!
  • Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Rom Hub) - The Railway Market is humorously called as the “life-risking” market! You will have fun riding a local train toward the Mae Klong station. While on this train, you will see the “Unseen-Thailand” experience. When the train signal rings up, the chaos will happen! Vendors will rush to detract their stall and clear away all goods that obstructs the running train at a great speed. Once the train passes, all shop owners will resume their stalls again.
  • Coconut Sugar Farm - You will observe how Thai farmers produce coconut nectar and palm sugar loaf. You will see a demonstration of coconut flower cutting, pouring the nectar into a bamboo container, putting preservation woods in the container, boiling up and pasteurizing the coconut nectar into the drinkable one. You will try squeezing coconut milk from coconut shell using a traditional Thai “rabbit-teeth” wooden machine.
  • Damnoen Saduak Floating Market - Join us for an unforgettable journey to the renowned Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, one of Thailand’s most historic and captivating markets. Your adventure begins with an exhilarating motorboat ride, immersing you in the vibrant atmosphere that has thrived on these waters for over a century.

Glide through bustling canals, where you’ll witness a lively market brimming with colorful boats and friendly vendors. Sample mouthwatering Thai delicacies, from sweet mango sticky rice to freshly-made coconut ice cream and authentic Thai-style boat noodles.
