What To Expect
Mae Klong Railway Market (Hoop Rom Market)
The Railway Market is humorously called as the “life-risking” market! You will have fun riding a local train toward the Mae Klong station. While on this train, you will see the “Unseen-Thailand” experience. When the train signal rings up, the chaos will happen! Vendors will rush to detract their stall and clear away all goods that obstructs the running train at a great speed. Once the train passes, all shop owners will resume their stalls again.
Coconut Sugar Farm
Visit a coconut sugar farm near Damnoen Saduak floating market. At this factory, you will learn how Thai farmers produce coconut nectar. You will see a demonstration of coconut flower cutting, pouring the nectar into a bamboo container, putting preservation woods in the container, boiling up and pasteurizing the nectar into the drinkable one. This will be your eye-opening experience!

5.00Loved it. It was such an adventure. Riding the train into the market. Shopping at the market and watching them take it down to get ready for the next train to pass by. Riding on the little boat was an awesome experience. I would do this tour again for sure. Pop was a great tour guide. Explained things and took our pics.
Fantastic tour guide, Poopy.
