What To Expect

Khlong Lat Mayom Floating Market
Khlong Lat Mayom is one of the three floating markets located close to Bangkok. Khlong Lat Mayom is nothing like the huge touristy Damnoen Saduak or the crowded Amphawa but really has the charm and authenticity of a local market and you might be one of the only foreigners around.

Everybody love floating markets - Thai and tourists alike - you just have to see how locals flock to the place on weekends! Local market culture has deep roots in Thai daily life and eating out is not a special event as it is in western culture: it’s fun, cheap and casual, and Thai food has so many variations it can be a travelling theme on its own.

Just like the two other markets around Bangkok, the definition of ’floating market’ is a bit stretched, the place being in fact more of a riverside market. The canal here is very narrow and only few boats are parked all alongside the riverbank and below a low bridge, cooking for customers who sit at low tables all along the water. Eating is always the highlight of a floating market visit, sitting on a little wooden stool not higher than 10 cm and ordering a dish cooked on a tiny wooden boat anchored just next to your table is such a fun and exotic experience!

Don’t be shy and try some of the dishes you are not familiar with... if you don’t know what it is, just point at your neighbour’s plate: noodle soups, Pad Thai, Kanom Jeen (cold rice vermicellis) or Hoi Tod (oyster omelet) for 20 to 30 baht per plate. The drinks are usually sold by another person walking around.

Taling Chan Floating Market
Located just outside of Bangkok on the access road to Khlong Bangkok Noi, Taling Chan looks like any other fresh food market busy with produce vendors from nearby farms. But the twist emerges at the canal where several floating docks serve as informal dining rooms and the kitchens are boats tethered to the docks.

Floating Market Tour - Two Thumbs Up
Kristi_L, 15-03-2020
The tour was a great morning of seeing and tasting local foods at a local market. Plenty of options to try things that are unique to Thailand. We were able to take a boat tour to see the surrounding area. I would def recommend this tour.
楽しい

BTSかMRT バンワ駅からタクシー100~120bts位で15分位? 観光客と見ると200btsとふっかけたタクシーは断り、GRABを呼んだ。(-""-;)
地元の人の為のマーケットなのでヌサドゥアのようにびっくりするようなぼったくりはなく、全てが良心的。ピア2からツアーボートがあり参加したが
100bts,50分位、郊外の普通の生活を垣間見て小さなマーケットとらん園を回る。とても活気があり、優しい空気が流れている。高いデイツアーに参加するより何倍も楽しめますよ。食べ物もとても美味しかったです( 〃▽〃)帰りのタクシーもいくらでもつかまります。土日のみなので、曜日が合えば本当にお勧めします。
Must do!!

This is a must do! Our guide was amazing. She answered our million questions about the Thai people, lifestyle and culture. We spent time boating through villages along the canals and then walked through multiple floating markets sampling countless foods. Some we knew. Most we had never seen! It was a perfect morning!
Paseo interesante para ver otras culturas

Paseo interesante para conocer otras formas de vivir la vida, paseo en lancha entre canales donde se puede ver como viven los del lugar, y como comercializan productos en sus mercados además de poder probar su comida y comprar algún recuerdo.
