Hi Lais, I think it was UrbanAge Hostel but that was ages ago. The tour might be a common one which you can inquire at your hostel, tour agent, or on Khao San Road.

Love your tips for three different ways of getting there as none of them involve taking expensive full day tours. We totally agree about getting there by 7 am or so, because otherwise its just no fun with the all the tourists.

We were unsure of getting there by using public transit, but after doing it, it was the best possible decision! We’ve got an in depth “How to” on getting there if you ever want to check it out 🙂

How can we hire a rowing boat (non-motorized boat) at Damnoen Saduak Floating Market to enjoy the canal and the market? How much does it cost? Is it based on hourly rate?

Many thanks in advance

My daughter went with a tour company and was disappointed
They make a very sort trip in the market and you will not see much
Take the public bus from the Southern Bus Terminal bus # 78
then go to the pear and hire a boat to the floating market
should not be more than 300 Bat

We felt it was too much but didn’t have the time or the guts to bargain !!!! later on I realized that we were not only victims of mafai but of not doing our homework before deciding to go there . As a matter of fact the taxi driver took us there knowing that we booked him to take us to the falls .. He later took us to the falls where we spent around two hours then drove us back to Bangkok!!!
