Overview

Your journey commences with a leisurely and scenic drive through rice paddies and salt fields. En route, visit a farmhouse and watch locals producing sugar from coconut. The tour continues by boat, passing fruit plantations and Thai houses that reveal a more traditional way of life. Upon arrival at Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, discover boats of all different shapes and sizes, still used by local merchants to ferry their goods along the canals. Having immersed yourself in the vibrant environment, head back toward Bangkok, stopping at a wood carving factory en route. The tour takes you through some of the most interesting parts of Bangkok, including a stop at the Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Po), the actual name of which is Wat Phra Jetupon, famous as the oldest and largest temple in Bangkok, with its precincts covering 80,000 square meters in all.

We loved this tour!!! I had an 18 and 15 year old with me and this was by far their favorite tour. Our tour guide, Parichat (SP?) was amazing! She really knew how to interact with my kids and keep things fresh and interesting. Everything from the coconut farm, to the markets, lunch and temples was well organized. Gave us a great view of Bangkok. This is a tour that should be on your must do list.

Excellent tour. Packed loads into a full day. Could not have seen all this if we had arranged it ourselves. Mr Moo was knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

Definitely Worth It!

Amazing tour. It really made our Bangkok trip. You see a lot in one day; so much so we decided to not see last temple. The restaurant we went for lunch was great as well. I liked that it was a private tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke English well. I highly recommend the tour!
