The canal was built on royal initiative as King Rama IV of Thailand wanted to link the Mae Klong River with Chinese river ways to support transportation and trade. It took over 2 years to dig, and was eventually finished under the reign of his successor King Rama V. The canal is 32 kilometers long and has more than 200 branches.Damnoen Saduak Floating Market’s popularity grew to new heights in 1971 – 1973 when the river was full of farmers on their boats selling their wares.

was a great day, really good tour guide with lots of information about thailand. it included train ride to the train markets then bus to floating market. don’t expect to spend whole day on boat, you only get about 25-30mins on the river. but still enough time. it is a full day tour & the drive is quite long but worth it. bring some water and snacks for the drive. overall very good dayWarning, it's a tourist trap. It's not the original floating market that you saw in Gold Finger movie.

It was amazing to see the traditional house on the way to the market. The floating market itself is a short visit, interesting to experience since it’s the original one but now quite commercial. You can do some shopping on the regular market just beside the river, and have a nice lunch and delicious coconut ice cream.Excellent tour and the guide was excellent and professional. We really enjoyed the visit of the markets and trying out the street food which were very delicious

The boat ride was more expensive than expected; it was supposed to be 1500 baht according to our travel agency, but when we arrived there, they asked for 3000 baht. We didn't buy anything, and aside from that, the coconut ice cream that has been overly promoted is not as good as you expected; one cup is 100 baht, which is too much for the price.
