Railway Market, Floating Market, & Ayutthaya Ruins Day Trip

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, pickup will be at the National Stadium BTS Station in Bangkok, proceeding southwest to the Maeklong Railway Market. After a 1.5-hour journey, you'll arrive at this busy open-air market to experience local products and see the train crossing the market if fortunate.

The tour continues to the floating market of Damnoen Saduak, where local merchants sell products from traditional boats. You'll board one of these boats for a unique shopping experience.

After some free time for lunch, the tour moves to the ruins of Ayutthaya, which was the capital of the Kingdom of Siam from the 14th to the 18th century. You will visit the main temples: Wat Mahathat, Wat Yai Chai Mongkon, and Wat Phra Si Sanphet. Highlights include the Buddha head entwined in tree roots at Wat Mahathat, the towering stupa of Wat Yai Chai Mongkon, and the regal site of Wat Phra Si Sanphet, part of the royal palace. Your guide will explain the significance of each temple and the Buddha statues present.

After visiting these sites, the return to the meeting point in the capital will occur, arriving 12 hours after pickup.

Separate Tours

If preferred, you can book a day trip to Ayutthaya and a tour of the Maeklong Railway Market and Floating Market separately.
