Start at the Maeklong Railway Market, known in Thai as Talad Rom Hoop. Watch the stall holders whisk their goods away in just a few minutes so the train can pass through. It happens so quickly that it is a truly thrilling moment.

Drive on to Samut Songkhram province and visit the Baan Rim Klong community, where you learn the meaning of 'slow life' and enjoy local products made from 100% natural ingredients. Uncle Somchai shows how to climb coconut trees and extract sugar from fresh coconuts, Grandma Chaweean invites you to help prepare Kanom Thai, a sweet local dessert, and Uncle Lantom weaves baskets from palm leaves.

After lunch, continue to Amphawa Floating Market, an afternoon food market held on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays on the canals near Wat Amphawan Chetiyaram. Learn how Thais used to trade in the old days and try local food, snacks and drinks sold straight from the boats. Return to Bangkok and your hotel.
