Visit the famous Maeklong Railway Market, one of the most unique markets in Thailand. Here, you will witness the incredible moment when the train passes directly through the market. As the train approaches the station, local vendors quickly pull back their umbrellas, fold their awnings, and move their goods away from the railway tracks to clear the path. Once the train has passed, everything is set up again within seconds, and the market returns to its lively atmosphere. At the market, you will find a wide variety of products including fresh fruits, vegetables, seafood, local snacks, and many inexpensive souvenirs.

This temple is very famous because the great holy relics of Lord Buddha was once enshrined in the central prang tower and it’s the location of the sand stone buddha head embedded in the tree’s root which is the highlight of Ayutthaya province.

If you only have one day, book this! Picking up souvenirs at the railway market while waiting for the train was awesome. Damnoen Saduak was super fun on the boat, and Ayutthaya’s ancient temples were unbelievable. Paula was so friendly and managed the timing perfectly.
What an incredible day! We watched the vendors quickly move their vegetable baskets as the train passed through Maeklong, explored the colorful floating market, and then continued on to Ayutthaya to see the beautiful ancient temples. Paula was an amazing guide, friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and always right on time. She took great care of us throughout the whole day and made everything feel easy and well organized. Our vehicle was very clean and comfortable, with nice cold air conditioning and plenty of cold drinking water waiting for us. It was a long day, but everything ran so smoothly. Definitely one of the highlights of our Thailand trip! What an incredible day!

I was worried it would be exhausting, but having a clean, cool van to rest in on the drive to Ayutthaya made a huge difference. The floating market boat ride in the morning was busy and full of energy, and the quiet temple ruins in the afternoon were lovely. Thanks Paula for a great tour!
Loved that we could get a good nap in the van during the drive out to Ayutthaya after the morning markets. The floating boat tour was exciting with people selling food right from their boats. The ancient temples were super cool to walk around. Thanks Nate for a hassle-free trip!

The tour was excellent! From the moment we contacted the agency, they were very flexible and allowed us to change the itinerary and pick us up from two different hotels that weren't very close. Our host, Miss Som, was extremely kind, patiently answered all our questions, and allowed us to make the stops we requested. Her recommendations were excellent. They provided us with all the water we needed, delicious coconut ice cream, and mango sticky rice. It was a lovely day, with practically all the places to ourselves. Excellent communication, punctual, clean, and attentive. I highly recommend it!

Words cant express how wonderful our trip was to the original floating market and the ancient city of Ayutthaya. We learned a lot and saw so much things that we only dreamed of seeing one day and this tour made that happened for us. But the most important thing about this tour was the professionalism of our tour guide Angie for her hospitality, kindness and knowledge about the tour. She even let us personalized the tour to accommodate our wishes of renting a Thai costume to take pics in the ruins. Special shout out also to our driver Peter for keeping us safe. Highly recommended!!!!! If you decide to take this tour book Angie, she is such a nice guide and the best hands down!!!!
