Damnoen Saduak and Ayutthaya Private Chartered Tour
Your tour blends the history with the vibrant life of Thailand’s most iconic markets, creating a journey that captures the soul of the country in one day. You’ll explore Ayutthaya’s most important temples – from the legendary Buddha head in tree roots at Wat Mahathat to the royal grandeur of Wat Phra Si Sanphet, the spiritual presence of Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit, and the victory monument of Wat Yai Chai Mongkol – each with stories that bring the ancient kingdom to life.
In the morning, immerse yourself in the colorful chaos of Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Then, witness the famous Maeklong Railway Market, where vendors swiftly fold away their stalls as a train passes right through the middle of the market – a once-in-a-lifetime sight.
With our private experience, you’ll enjoy a more personal pace, insightful guiding, and flexibility to explore each stop your way. This is more than just a day trip – it’s a rich, seamless journey through history, culture, and local life.
