Tha Kha Floating Market
This half day tour will take you to Tha Kha Floating Market; one of the more charming and less touristy floating markets within easy reach of Bangkok.
Area
Bangkok
Tha Kha Floating Market is around 90 minutes' drive from central Bangkok, and so we recommend starting early to try and catch the market in full swing. However, even at its busiest, Tha Kha is much smaller and more low-key in comparison to some of the other floating markets closer to the capital. This makes it the best option for those who still want to experience a floating market while avoiding too many crowds.
Immerse yourself in the hustle and bustle by taking a ride in a wooden paddle boat. Cruise through palm plantations and soak up the atmosphere while you watch the vendors selling their goods to locals and tourists and trading with one another.
