TOUR FLOATING MARKET

TOUR DESCRIPTION. DAMNOEN SADUAK FLOATING MARKET/ELEPHANT SHOW/ ROSE GARDEN CULTURAL SHOW

FULL DAY TOUR DEPARTING FROM BANGKOK

Overview of the tour: Khlong Damnoen Saduak is the name given historically to the canal excavated by the soldiers and the local people during the reign of King Mongkut, which was finished in 1868. It is 35 km long, and links the Tha Chin and Mae Klong rivers in the central western province of Ratchaburi. The project was principally undertaken to facilitate transport and trade, by creating smaller canals that link towns and villages along the way. At Damnoen Saduak a good part of the population lives along the banks of the canal; most of them are farmers who grow a variety of tropical fruits such as papaya, oranges, coconuts, bananas, guava etc. The canals also provide a source of water for irrigation.

Today the floating market at Damnoen Saduak is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Thailand. Apart from locally grown tropical fruits, the market vendors also sell a variety of produce including vegetables, meat, fish, handcrafts and souvenirs. The floating market is 109 km from Bangkok and our tour guide will give you commentary on places of interest along the way, including an early morning stop at the Railway Market.

For lunch, the tour stops off at the picturesque Rose Garden, which is a Tropical Garden full up with all the beautiful tropical flowers and especially the Thai Orchid and Roses. The visit to the Rose Garden also includes an extensive buffet lunch while watching a cultural Thai show. While enjoying the lavish buffet, you get to view the performances of a Buddhist ordination procession, Thai boxing, hill tribe dances, elephants at work and a traditional Thai wedding ceremony. You can also ride an elephant for 20 baht per person for 5 minutes and this is one of the truly authentic and memorable moments during your visit to Thailand.

Damnoen Saduak floating market is located in Damnoen Saduak district (Amphoe in Thai language) in the province Ratchaburi, in central Thailand.
