Paddle into the Thai paradise

This half-day tour gets you to the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market when the scene is at its liveliest – early in the day (travel pros swear by this!). From your pickup point, relax in the comfort of an air-conditioned vehicle. A 45-minute ride on a longtail boat will take you right into the heart of the market, buzzing with energy and color. Your friendly guide (fluent in English and Chinese) will be your secret weapon, helping you navigate this bustling bazaar and get the best deal.

Get on the floating feast

The market is a flotilla of long-tail boats, each one brimming with colorful goods and the warm smiles of local vendors. It’s a place where the air is rich with the aroma of street food – think grilled skewers and sweet mangoes, all served boat-to-boat.

But it’s not just about the food. The market is a bazaar of the senses. You’ll find handcrafted souvenirs, silky fabrics, and artisanal trinkets – perfect mementos of your Thai adventure. And let’s not forget the clothing – from traditional Thai outfits to the latest fashion, it’s a shopper’s paradise.

Tailor your day, your way

Want to get right into the heart of the action? Rent a paddle boat (for a small extra fee) and explore at your own pace. Whether you're flying solo or with your crew, you have the option to choose between a private or a group tour too.
