This full-day trip to Samut Songkhram Province, only an hour outside the capital, allows you to experience the traditional charms of the Thai countryside.

      Your day will start with a trip to a local railway station where a bustling country market has sprouted up along the tracks. When a train pulls in or out of the station, the vendors quickly clear their stalls, only to set them up again moments later when the train has passed! From here, the journey continues to the famous Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Although quite touristy today, the market remains the best example to showcase how a floating market originally was like decades ago.

  • Day 11 Free Day In Phuket (B)
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Free Day In Phuket (B)

      Phuket is known for its outstanding beaches offering a wide variety of scenery, atmospheres, facilities, and even textures of sand. Spend your day relaxing at one of the islandโ€™s beaches, you have many options to choose from:

      ยญ 

      For example, Kata Beach is always a reliable option with soft white sand, shady palm trees, water sports, and a laid-back atmosphere. You can easily spend the day here with a handful of food and drink vendors. 

      ยญ 

      Another idea is Nai Harn Beach located at the end of Phuket, which has grown in popularity over the years. However, thanks to the relatively small size of the bay and its large lake on the other side, the beach hasnโ€™t been developed like others nearby. That being said, nice hotels, shops, and restaurants are located nearby for food and drink. 

      ยญ 

      If you are seeking a more isolated atmosphere, head to Freedom Beach with possibly the best white sand in Phuket. Though itโ€™s more challenging to get to (you can either hike a steep path or take a longtail boat to arrive), youโ€™ll escape the motorized water sports and beach vendors for truly peaceful environs.

      Overnight in Phuket

  • Day 12 Free Day In Phuket (B)
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Free Day In Phuket (B)
