Meet the locals at Mahachai
TOUR
CODE : BKKMAH
TOUR PROGRAM :
This tour will bring you to one of the least visited fishing villages
of Thailand. The train starts in a highly populated part of Bangkok
across the mighty Chao Phraya River. When the train leaves, you
almost drive through the kitchens and living rooms of the local
people. On the way, you will see the big buildings of Bangkok become
smaller and smaller until you are surrounded by rice fields and
houses on stilts.
The tour starts with a transfer to Wongwian Yai Railway Station
at the Thonburi side of Bangkok across the Chao Praya River. The
local station is situated in the middle of the Wongwian Yai market
and offers a great experience and insight into local Thai lifestyle.
Board non-air-conditioned train carriages and enjoy a scenic train
journey to Mahachai, the largest fresh seafood market in Thailand.
A weird and wonderful variety of local produce is sold here. Extensive
visit of Mahachai Market followed by a Thai lunch at a local restaurant
overlooking the crowded fish market.
After lunch, we will board a small boat for a scenic trip along
the river. You will get an excellent view on the Thai fisherman’s
craft. We will pass fishing boats of all sorts of size and colors
sailing into the small harbor. These ships enter the harbor from
the Gulf of Thailand loaded with fish. Along a small canal, you
will see how these fishermen live and work, passing their homes
and small shipyards. In the afternoon, we will return to Mahachai
Market and board the train back to Wongwian Yai in Bangkok where
we will arrive at approx. 16.00 hrs. Transfer back to your hotel
in town by van.
