Why choose this Bangkok tour ?
Of the many floating markets in Thailand, Thaka is perhaps the most ‘authentic’ version that there is. Vastly different than the neighbouring floating markets at Damnern Saduak and Amphawa, Thaka is not usually on the maps of most tourists. It could be considered as the last of its kind and it would be a wise decision to visit before it too welcomes mass tourist numbers.
This quaint, laidback floating market is still fully operational. Just as they have been doing for years, the locals buy and sell fruits, meats, fish and more from their floating wooden sampan in a very relaxed, old-world vibe.
Nearby is a coconut plantation where the farmer makes palm sugar the traditional, old fashioned way.
Another stop on this tour will be at Wat Bang Kung, a century’s old temple that has been surrounded by the roots of a massive Banyan Tree.
The tour will finish off with a lunch break at an open-air restaurant which is right on the side of the Mae Kong River and enjoys the river breeze.

What makes Thaka – Thailand’s most authentic Floating Market a unique experience ?
A most traditional floating market remaining that operates on the weekends only (except on Buddhist holidays). Considered ‘off-the-beaten-track’ and not visited by foreign tourists as much as its neighbours, the Damnoen Saduak and Amphawa floating markets.
Small temple built centuries ago and now completely surrounded by the roots of a Banyan Tree.
