An energetic journey to Western Thailand. While most tourists travel to floating & railway market, you can travel further than them! Spend your endless energy by traveling to Erawan waterfall and River Kwai Bridge with us. In the morning, you will enjoy a fun boat ride to explore the Damnoen Saduak floating market, get on a train ride and watch the lively chaotic moment as the train approaches the Railway market, observe how coconut nectar is produced at a coconut sugar farm, and visit a salt farm and learn its production process.

In the afternoon, you will be refueled with yummy lunch, hike to Erawan Waterfall, swim in its emerald green ponds, and explore the tropical rainforest for full 3 hours. The waterfall has 7 tiers; you can test your endurance here! After hiking at the waterfall, you will have a comfortable walk at the Death Railway and River Kwai Bridge, where you will savor the beautiful scenery of river bank and took a lot of sunset photos.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
The Floating Market of Damnoen Saduak is among one of the most attractive floating markets in Thailand. Motor boat rides are already included in your tour! Many Thai and foreign tourists come here to absorb the atmosphere of Thailand water markets that have been like this for over a 100 years. At this floating market, you can try a number of delicious Thai fruits and foods such as sweet mango on sticky rice, freshly-made coconut icecream, and Thai-style boat noodle.
2.
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.
3.
Visit a coconut sugar farm near Damnoen Saduak floating market. At this factory, you will learn how Thai farmers produce coconut nectar. 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 nectar into the drinkable one. This will be your eye-opening experience!
4.
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!
5.
Erawan Waterfall is recognized as one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Thailand. The major attraction of the park is the 7-tiered Erawan Falls with emerald green ponds. Erawan has seven separate tiers spanning approximately 1,500 meters through the thick rainforest of the park. The park are named after "Erawan", the three-headed white elephant of Hindu mythology. The top tier of the falls is said to resemble an elephant head. Admission fee for foreigners are included in your tour.
6.
Thanks to several films and books, the Bridge over the River Kwai has become famous and attracted both Thais and foreigners to the site. If an ordinary black iron bridge can tell a story, you can be sure it's a dramatic one. The bridge has steel plates over the ties to make it easy to walk over the span. There are also viewing platforms between the trestles to give you a view of the river as well as to give you a place to get out of the way if you're on the bridge when a train comes. You will have a delicious lunch at a raft restaurant near the River Kwai Bridge.

I had an amazing experience with Pop as my guide. I was traveling solo and booked the private tour through Viator. She is friendly and professional and has excellent knowledge of the region. If you're looking for a guide I recommend asking for Pop. If you're going for the Maeklong Railway and Floating market, i recommend the 6:30 am option

Lin was fantastic, and Kevin was an excellent driver! I would highly recommend a tour with them. Lin was very knowledgeable of the history of each of the stops, and took a ton of great pictures and videos. I will definitely be asking for tours from Lin next time I am in Thailand.

the tour was interesting and Lin our guide was well informed. We saw the train, the railway market, a coconut farm (met some gibbons) and had a wonderful log tail boat ride to the floating market. The trip is particularly good if you want a lot of photos to show your friends on Facebook and Lin has a lot of spots lined up to take pictures

I highly recommend the tour in Thailand with Tour guide Lin. It was the best tour I've experienced in Thailand. Lin is not only extremely nice and photogenic but also very knowledgeable. I had a great time and learned a lot during the tour. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Thailand.

We had a great day, with lots of impressions. It was very well organized and we had a lot of fun. We had imagined the floating market to be a little different, as it is only designed for tourists, but it was still very nice. A big thank you to Lynn and the nice bus driver
