Day 1 - Bangkok - Samut Songkram - River Kwai (L,D)

Samut Songhkhram (80 kms) in the Mae Klong river delta is an 80 kilometer drive south of Bangkok and while there, you'll visit a unique country market and explore the maze of canals that make up Tha Kha, one of the country's famous floating markets (Note: the market is available 5-6 times per month according to the lunar-cycle calendar). You'll also be able to visit some beautiful and interesting temples before arriving at Rama II Park and later having lunch at a local restaurant. Your journey continues to Kanchanaburi with a trip to the JEATH Museum, and if time permits, a train ride on the infamous death railway line followed be dinner at a local eatery.
Day 2 - River Kwai - Kanchanaburi (B,L,D)

Today you'll explore the Hellfire Pass Museum and trek through the canyon and its four kilometer Memorial Walking Trail. After enjoying lunch at a local restaurant, you'll visit an elephant camp and ride through the jungle and along the Kwai Yai River atop one of these enourmous beasts. Your day draws to a conclusion with a gentle bamboo raft ride before heading to your riverside hotel.

A visit to Wat Prasat Muang Singh, a Khmer temple complex dating back to the Angkorian period, marks your last day on this journey.
