Amazing floating market 2 hours south of Bangkok (Amphawa, Thailand)

Amphawa Floating Market is only a couple of hours' drive from Bangkok but it feels a million miles away.

There are plenty of great homestay-style guesthouses to choose from, each of which will give you a great local experience.

Don't miss the firefly spotting in the evening. And make sure you wake up early to take part in the morning almsgiving ceremony – a real slice of culture that will give you a good insight into local traditions and beliefs.

ABOUT BANGKOK EXPLORER

Bangkok Explorer is the low budget, but full-of-heart travel show of Bangkok-based writers and editors – and wannabe filmmakers – Por and Adam Purcell.

We’ve been together for 13 years, married for six, and every day has been an adventure!

Driven by the desire to introduce you to amazing experiences in Bangkok and around Thailand – and passionate about supporting local businesses – we go in search of people, places, stories, and lesser-known attractions which we document for your viewing pleasure.

Our mission is to build a community of like-minded explorers who love Thailand and everything this fascinating country has to offer.

Please like, share and subscribe and we’ll do our best to keep the explorations coming.

If you’d like to see anywhere explored – or you have a top tip for us – please let us know in the comments.

Take care, keep safe, and keep on exploring!
