See the highlights of Samut Songkram province. After an hour drive we start with a visit to a unique fresh market on railway tracks. One can hardly believe what is happening here. When the train passes through, merchants quickly fold their stall covers and move all their products away from the track. Just a second after the train passes through vendors are rolling tables and baskets back into position and business resumes as if nothing had happened.

We then continue to the nearby unique Tha kha floating market. A very authentic floating market that still operates as 30 years ago. We will go on the rowing boat to explore the surrounding plantation areas and visit a Coconuts Sugar Factory. In the morning is the best time to visit the market, a great place to taste a variety of Thai tropical fruits, a refreshing snack during the hot tropical days. The driver and guide will bring you back safely to your hotel. This is a half day tour with start from Bangkok.
