Bangkok: Ayutthaya, Railway & Floating Markets Full-Day Tour

Overview

Unforgettable Day Trip: Maeklong Railway Market, Floating Market & Ayutthaya Ruins
Experience the perfect blend of Thailand’s vibrant local life and its majestic royal history. This full-day guided tour takes you from the adrenaline of the “umbrella-pulldown” market to the serene, sun-drenched ruins of the ancient capital, Ayutthaya.

The Thrill of the Maeklong Railway Market
Kick off your morning at the world-famous Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Rom Hrub). Unlike any other bazaar in the world, this market sits directly on active train tracks. Watch in awe as vendors expertly retract their awnings and move their goods in seconds to let the train pass inches from their stalls. It is a masterclass in local coordination and a photographer’s dream.

Traditional Charm at Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
Next, we dive into the colorful canals of the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Board a traditional long-tail boat and glide through the waterways where local merchants paddle by, selling everything from sweet mango sticky rice to handcrafted souvenirs. Immerse yourself in the sights, scents, and sounds of Thailand’s most iconic trading tradition.

Ayutthaya: A Journey Through Time
Leave the bustle behind as we travel north to Ayutthaya Historical Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Once the largest city in the world, its ruins tell the story of a lost empire.

Wat Mahathat: Witness the famous stone Buddha head miraculously entwined within the roots of a banyan tree.

Wat Phra Si Sanphet: Explore the three iconic bell-shaped stupas of what was once the grandest temple in the Royal Palace complex.
