Tha Kha also known as Thaka Floating Market is a hidden gem, and only 60 kilometers away from Bangkok. This Floating Market will give you a different perspective than other markets closer to Bangkok as it is less touristy and gives you a more genuine and charming view of a traditional Thai floating market.

Follow the residences of Bangkok to explore the charming authentic markets outside of Bangkok, which takes place only during weekends. Starting with the train market in Mae Klong Railway Market, the trip brings you to one of Thailand’s most authentic floating market at Tha Kha village and to explore the rural life along the green canals. Donwai market at Tachin River in Nakorn Pathom is a must-visit for an exquisite foodie experience.

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.

Your day begins with a pick-up from your hotel by your guide, who will take you on a scenic journey. At Thaka Floating Market, you'll experience the easy-going locals and immerse yourself in their age-old way of life. Enjoy the opportunity to indulge in incredibly affordable Thai coffee, snacks, and drinks while soaking in the peaceful atmosphere of this market. Journey through the scenic countryside, to visit the JEATH War Museum in Kanchanaburi, where a reconstructed hut offers insight into the lives of World War II POWs through paintings, photos, and exhibits. Next, board a long-tail speedboat for a relaxing ride to a local restaurant, where you’ll savor a delicious Thai set menu lunch. Afterward, take a guided walk along the railway tracks of the historic Bridge over the River Kwai, reflecting on its significance. This full-day tour is a perfect blend of culture, history, and natural splendor, making it an unforgettable experience.
