Floating Market Thailand & Kanchanaburi Trip
Floating Market Thailand and Kanchanaburi Trip : By Guide Eng
It is possible to visit both the Floating Market and Kanchanburi within a day. Both destinations are located on the west of Bangkok . Our plan is to begin with the Floating Market and travel to Kanchanaburi later.
This trip is good for those who have limited time but like to see both destinations obviously. Plus, you will have a chance to visit the Cambodian Sanctuary, ride on the scenic train and visit the War Cemetery , which are more attractions than what general tour operators will offer.
