Amphawa and Tha Kha Floating Market Tour from Bangkok (Private Tour)

About this experience

Exploring the colourful weekend floating markets at Amphawa and Tha Kha is a great way to immerse yourself in a more traditional way of life in Thailand. These markets offer a glimpse into local culture, delicious food, unique handicrafts, and a relaxed atmosphere by the water. Enjoy the sights, sounds, and flavors of these charming markets as you take in the authentic experience they have to offer!

An early start is a must if you want to catch the action at Mae Klong Train market and Tha Kha Floating Market the first stop of the morning will be the Mae Klong Train Market where you witness the market vendors goods set up across the tracks of a working railway line! If the train schedule allows you will see the train pass through the market and witness the amazing sight of the vendors pulling back their market stalls just inches from the passing train! Following Mae Klong we will take a short 30-minute drive to the less-visited Tha Kha Floating Market here you will see this laid-back market and take the option of boarding a paddleboat to get amongst the market action. A riverside lunch will be followed by a motorboat trip along the canals and backwaters to explore the numerous canals and observe the traditional Thai way of living along Amphawa’s waterways. We will disembark the boat at the bustling Amphawa floating market and take a walk along the main canal to observe both the waterborne market and the bustling market and food stalls lining the main waterway through the market. The final stop of the day will be at Wat Bang Kung before transferring you to your Bangkok hotel.
