Bangkok Canals and Flower Market

Thailand's markets come in all shapes and sizes – and this full-day tour dives right into the action. First up is Ladplee, Thailand's first floating market, and the oldest one around. It's for the history and the hypes, and trust us, it delivers. Picture colourful canoes drifting by, piled high with fresh fruit, snacks, and local goodies – perfect for snapping those Insta-worthy shots. Next, you'll cruise through Bangkok's canals to the lively Damnoen Floating Market, where the energy is just as electric. Then, it's off to Wat Bang Kung, an ancient temple that looks like it's been plucked straight from a movie set, completely enveloped by jungle vines. After a tasty seafood lunch, you'll have time to wave at the cheeky monkeys when you stop by the Mangrove Conservation Centre. And, for the grand finale, we'll hit the Maeklong Railway Market—where stalls are literally set up on the train tracks. Sounds wild, right? Just wait until you see them clear out in the nick of time as the train rolls through, then everything goes right back to business. This is one Thai adventure you won't want to miss.
