Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
TOUR
CODE : BKKFDH
There are countless floating markets throughout the country, many
within a couple of hours’ of the capital. The colorfully clad merchants
at these lively markets paddle along congested canals in sturdy
canoes laden with fresh fruit and vegetables to sell to shoppers
on the banks. There is lots of chatter and activity – bargaining
is common – that’s all part of the fun -- but don’t expect to get
the price down more than a few baht.
The most famous of the floating markets is Damnoen Saduak, about
100 kilometers southwest of Bangkok. This buzzing market is at its
best in the early morning before the crowds arrive and the heat
of the day builds up. Our tour further includes a visit to Nakorn
Pathom, supposedly the largest pagoda in Southeast Asia. .

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
This large and popular floating market is about 80 km southwest
of Bangkok in Ratchaburi province. Photos of this vibrant market
featuring many small boats laden with colourful fruits and vegetables
and paddled by Thai women wearing bamboo hats, are among the most
often published in travel magazines and brochures of Thailand.
There are bus services to Damnoen Saduak from the Southern Bus Terminal
on Borommarat Chachonnani Road starting at 6 a.m. You'd better get
there as early in the morning as possible to escape a crowd of visitors.
Around this area, boat trip services are available for sightseeing
along smaller canals branching off from Damnoen Saduak canal.
