River Kwai Bridge, Tha Makham, Thailand Thanks to several films and books, the Bridge on the River Khwae has become famous and attracted both Thais and foreigners to the site. If an ordinary black iron bridge can tell a story, you can be sure it's a dramatic one. The bridge has steel plates over the ties to make it easy to walk over the span. There are also viewing platforms between the trestles to give you a view of the river as well as to give you a place to get out of the way if you're on the bridge when a train comes. 30 minutes
JEATH War Museum, Kanchanaburi, Thailand The name JEATH is derived from countries engaged in the WWII death railway construction from 1942 to 1945: Japan, England, America, Australia, Thailand and Holland.

The museum building itself was also turned from the detention hut, used during that period. 30 minutes

We had a lovely time with bop and the driver! We started our day with a coffee stop, then railway market, then spontaneous elephant rides, then coconut and salt farms, followed by floating markets and the waterfall
Swim.
Bop was super accomodating for the 14 year old and 10 year old. So highly recommend it.
It is a long day but worth it. Just ask bop to stop for extra snacks. :)
Thank you

Driver and guides were awesome! Falls were beautiful and refreshingly cold. All the War stops and information was educational; I didn't know most of it. My sister and I had a great time! I would 100% recommend.
