Itinerary

Day 1: Bangkok - Damnoen Saduak Floating Market - Erawan Falls - Kanchanaburi

Our first stop of the day will be the famous floating market Damnoen Saduak. You will board a long-tail boat for a ride through the canals. The Damnoen Saduak canal was ordered to be built in 1866 by King Rama IV to facilitate waterborne travels between Ratchaburi and Samut Sakhon provinces. It was finished and opened to the public in 1868. Photos of this vibrant market featuring boats laden with colorful fruits and vegetables, agricultural produce as well as authentic, local sweets, delicacies and souvenirs, are among the most often published in travel magazines and brochures of Thailand. NOTE: Damnoen Saduak is very touristy nowadays, but it still guarantees the floating market experience, even though it doesn't always feel totally authentic.

Overnight in Kanchanaburi, mid-range hotel with air-conditioning and bathroom.

Day 2: Kanchanaburi - Ayutthaya - Bangkok

Early morning we leave from the hotel and head to the former capital Ayutthaya. But first we make a short stop at the Bridge on the River Kwai which was part of the ‘Death Railway’. The notorious Death Railway, also called Burma Railway, is the nickname that Prisoners of War in World War II gave to the railway they were forced to build between Thailand and Myanmar (Burma). The Japanese used forced labor on a large scale. The circumstances were terrible, and more than 100,000 workers, including thousands of Dutch, English and American people, died from the effects of malnutrition, illnesses and abuse.
