                                                       Bangkok

    Code: BKK_NE_009_8

    Description:
    The first stop of the day will be the colorful market of Maekhlong, crossed by the tracks of a secondary
                                 railway line. Not far from here we find the Damnern
                                 Saduak Floating Market. On board a typical motor
                                 launch we will proceed along the exotic rural canals
                                 until  we  reach  the  well-known  and  picturesque
                                 market. Along the river the numerous wooden boats
                                 form an intricate bustle in which the vendors manage
                                 to extricate themselves easily to offer passers-by the
    products of the local cuisine and crafts. We will have time to visit the bustling market before setting off and
    plunging back into the more traditional rural Thai countryside. Return to Bangkok at noon.

    Highlights:
                                 At the Maekhlong market we will witness the spectacular passage of the train,
                                 which slowly plunges into this active and teeming market, while the agile sellers
                                 move the goods just enough to be able to pass the convoy, and then resume
                                 shortly after all activities such as if nothing had happened. A unique show. More
                                 classic but equally picturesque is the floating market of Damnern Saduak, which
                                 continues the ancient tradition of trade
