Itinerary

Travel to the most famous and photogenic market outside of Bangkok. Your private driver will meet you at your hotel in Bangkok city center at the agreed pickup time and head towards the Maeklong Railway Market. Arrive at the market and immerse yourself in the hustle plus bustle of local life. Discover the many street vendors and train tracks crossed through the market. See how they pull back their specially designed awnings when the train comes in and reopen after the train passes. Remember to move fast when the warning bell goes off because the train is coming in a few minutes! The vendors re-arrange their carts and stalls 8 times a day. Watch as the sellers can adapt their stalls perfectly to the train schedule. Don't miss to try out local Thai food there - some are rare and you can't find them in Bangkok. Spend your leisure time walking around with no rush and be transferred back to your hotel in comfort by your professional driver.

Our day was awesome. We booked last minute, the night before for a Maeklong Railway Market half day tour 6:30am pick up. Our driver Tato was so lovely. He suggested to drop us off at Bang Si Khot stat (Read More)ion (10 stops from the market). It was such an experience (and only 3baht each) to ride the train past local villages and see the salt farms and then into Maeklong Station. It arrived at 8:30am, then we walked through the markets for 30mins and then found a spot along the tracks to watch the train leave. Riding the train in through the markets, walking through and then seeing the train leave was exactly what we wanted from our tour. The experience of riding in on the train was actually the highlight of the day to be able to see the markets from both perspectives. I believe some tours do not not offer this. We were not interested in the floating markets so this was perfect for us to to know this option is available.
