What to expect

Don Wai market has become something of a star in recent years. It's authentically Thai – there's lots of noise, colour, flavour and a few weird eats. And as it's a bit off the tourist radar, you can explore without the crowds – except locals, that is. To round off this genuine Thai morning, there's also a boat trip on the Tha Chin River.

Before you get stuck into the market, we'll drop into Wat Don Wai – a nearby Buddhist temple with a triple-layered roof and golden façade. Then it's time for the main attraction. Popular with the locals, this riverside market is the real deal. Barter with traders and try local delicacies. For a strange twist on fruit, try the mango plum – its looks like a plum but tastes like a mango.

After you've had your fill of the market, we'll board a boat for a cruise along Tha Chin River. The banks are lined with Palm trees and the water is green with hyacinths, making the river an exotic location to feast on your market-bought delicacies.

Thailand is predominantly Buddhist, with around 95% of Thais practising the Theravada discipline of Buddhism. So it's not unusual to see monks walking the streets of Bangkok.

Then, it's onward to the second temple of the day – Wat Pho. It is known as the temple of the Reclining Buddha because of its large statues, which at an 46 metres in length and 15 metres in height, is the largest in the city.The day's final temple is Wat Benchamabophit – the ‘Temple of the Fifth King' – which is famed for its intricate Italian marble detail. To round off the tour, there's a visit to a lapidary factory, where you can browse handicrafts, jewellery and silk.
