On this day trip, you'll discover three of the most famous sites in Bangkok: the floating market of Damnoen Saduak, the Maeklong Railway Market, and the ruins of Ayutthaya!

Day Trip Details

At the designated time, we'll pick you up at the National Stadium BTS Station in Bangkok and set off southwest toward the Maeklong Railway Market. After a 1.5-hour journey, we'll reach this open-air market where you'll see local products and the train crossing the market.

The tour will continue to the floating market of Damnoen Saduak, which features local merchants selling products in traditional boats. We'll board one of these boats for shopping.

Afterward, you'll have free time for lunch. Then, we'll head to the ruins of Ayutthaya, the former capital of the Kingdom of Siam (14th to 18th century).

Here, you'll visit the ruins of the main temples: Wat Mahathat, Wat Yai Chai Mongkon, and Wat Phra Si Sanphet. You'll see the Buddha head entwined in tree roots at Wat Mahathat, the towering stupa at Wat Yai Chai Mongkon, and the temple of Wat Phra Si Sanphet, which was part of the royal palace. Your guide will explain the significance of each temple and the Buddha statues on site.

After this trip, we'll return to the meeting point in the capital, arriving 12 hours after pickup.
