Thailand Road Trip Guide: 5 Epic Ideas Under 3hrs from Bangkok

hatyai to bangkok road trip

Experience epic hikes, wild elephant safaris, and top-quality vineyards — all less than three hours away from Bangkok. Plus, great travel deals for the month of May at the end — incl. car rental! 🚗

Featured - Bangkok Itinerary

In my opinion, road trips are the best kind of adventure. We’ve been lucky enough to go on some pretty amazing road trips — from living in a camper van around Iceland’s Golden Circle , exploring Western Australia ‘s coastal drives and even Spain’s Catalonia region .

We love Thailand, but it’s probably one of the last places you’d think of when picking a road trip destination.

The view during most of our Bangkok to Hua Hin road trip 🤯

But with so many underrated towns less than three hours away, Bangkok is actually an excellent starting base for a road trip. Each place has something unique to offer — thrilling activities, breathtaking hikes, beautiful temples, and animal encounters.

Renting a car was also really easy, but more on that at the end — along with limited-time promos on Klook! Still unconvinced? Here are five ideas for an epic Thailand road trip!

Click to jump to each section: Kanchanaburi | Hua Hin | Khao Yai | Pattaya | Ayutthaya

1) Bangkok to Kanchanaburi  Itinerary

Train on the Tham Kra Sae Bridge Kanchanaburi Death Railway - Thailand Road Trip

Distance: 2hr 7min (124km)  Recommended duration: 3D2N

Our first Thailand road trip idea is Kanchanaburi . It’s a town with stunning natural landscapes and a harrowing past. A bit of history — during World War II, prisoners were forced by the Japanese army to construct a bridge to connect Thailand and Myanmar.

An estimated 100,000 prisoners died building this bridge that passed through Kanchanaburi, hence the name Death Railway.

Death Railway Museum

Kanchanaburi Death Railway Museum - Thailand Road Trip

The Death Railway Museum pays tribute to the prisoners of war who died building the railway. We’d recommend visiting this museum first so you’ll have a better understanding of the town’s history before seeing the landmarks.

Entrance fee:  ฿150 (~S$6) Opening hours:  9AM – 5PM Address:  73 Chao Khun Nen Rd, Ban Nuea, Mueang Kanchanaburi District, Kanchanaburi 71000, Thailand

Wat Tham Suea Temple 

Tourist at Wat Tham Suea Temple - Best Things to do in Kanchanaburi

Wat Tham Suea Temple is one of Kanchanaburi’s most famous attractions, with a mix of Thai and Chinese architectural features.

The temple is also called the Tiger Cave Temple as the area was rumoured to be home to a family of tigers. Don’t worry though, you won’t find any tigers there!

Kanchanaburi Wat Tham Suea Temple Ti - ger Cave Temple Colourful Steps - Bangkok Itinerary

Be sure to spot the 18m-tall golden Buddha and colourful steps (157 total!) to the temple.

Entrance fee:  Free Opening hours:  5AM – 5PM Address:  Moo 3 Tha Muang, Kanchanaburi, Thailand

River Kwai Death Railway Bridge

Kanchanaburi Death Railway Visitor Walking Along Tham Kra Sae Bridge - Thailand Road Trip

But of course, you can’t visit Kanchanaburi without seeing the Death Railway for yourself. There are many viewing spots along the track, but the section at Tham Kra Sae Bridge has the best scenery.

*Pro-tip: Time your visit during train passings (see  train schedule  for fixed timings). Come an hour earlier before the train arrives to walk along the track!

Entrance fee:  Free Opening hours:  24 hours Address:  Lum Sum, Sai Yok District, Kanchanaburi 71150, Thailand

Elephants World

Kanchanaburi Elephants World Elephant Daycare - Thailand Road Trip

Sign up for an elephant daycare at Elephants World , a sanctuary for elephants rescued from all over Thailand. There are currently 10 elephants living there and they spend most of the day roaming around freely.

Kanchanaburi Elephants World Elephant Daycare Visitors Preparing Fruits - Thailand Road Trip

You’ll also get to live a day in the life of a mahout (elephant trainer), starting with prepping food for the elephants! Elephants spend most of their time eating, consuming 10% of their body weight daily.

We got to cut fruits, cook rice balls, and — my favourite bit — feed the elephants.

Kanchanaburi Elephants World Elephant Daycare Visitors Bathing Elephants - Thailand Road Trip

After that, head down to the river to bathe the elephants. Spending the day with these gentle giants was a very humbling, wholesome experience — definitely one for the books!

Cost:  ~S$90.60 for a one-day program (incl. lunch and round trip transfer) Tour timing:  9AM – 4PM Meeting point: Hotel pick up, or meet directly at 90/9 Moo 4, Baan Nong Hoi, Amphoe Mueang, Tambon Wang Dong, Kanchanaburi, 71190, Thailand

Erawan National Park

Kanchanaburi Erawan National Park Waterfall - Thailand Road Trip

An hour’s drive from Kanchanaburi’s city centre lies Erawan National Park . There are several hiking trails, but the real reason everyone visits is the seven-tiered Erawan Falls. The cascading waterfalls and vibrant emerald ponds might remind you of Kuang Si Falls in Laos !

After enjoying the waterfalls, explore the park’s many caves like Phra That Cave and Wang Bah Dan Cave.

Entrance fee: ฿300 (~S$12) Opening hours: 8AM – 4:30PM Address:  94GV+5HW, Tha Kradan, Si Sawat District, Kanchanaburi 71250, Thailand

Hua Hin is a charming seaside town surrounded by vast national parks and pristine beaches — the perfect road trip in Thailand for nature lovers!

Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park

Hua Hin Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park Bueng Bua Lotus Pond Boardwalk - Bangkok Itinerary

One of the best things to do in Hua Hin is to visit Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park . Khao Sam Roi Yot translates to “mountain with three hundred peaks”, which refers to the park’s series of limestone hills.

This park is massive and we recommend spending a full day here. Here are our favourite spots in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park:

Khao Daeng Viewpoint

Hua Hin Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park Hiker at Khao Daeng Viewpoint - Bangkok Itinerary

The trek up to Khao Daeng Viewpoint is one that’s low effort and high reward. It takes just 30 minutes to reach the 157m-tall peak, where panoramic views of the Gulf of Thailand await.

Phraya Nakhon Cave Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park - Things to do in Hua Hin

Phraya Nakhon Cave is arguably Hua Hin’s most recognised landmark, taking a 45-minute (mostly uphill) hike to reach. The Khuha Kharuehat Pavilion is the cave’s main attraction, perched on a small hill at its centre — built in 1890 in honour of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V).

*Pro-tip:  Aim to arrive between 10:30AM and 12PM when the sun is directly above the cave! It casts a beautiful light over the pavilion.

Opening hours:  8AM – 3PM Address:  Park at Bang Pu Beach (6246+C42, Ro Pho Cho Prachuap Khiri Khan 2107 Rd, Sam Roi Yot District, Prachuap Khiri Khan 77120, Thailand). It’s a 20min drive from Khao Daeng Viewpoint

Thung Sam Roi Yot Freshwater Marsh

Hua Hin Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park Bueng Bua Lotus Pond - Things to do in Hua Hin

Thung Sam Roi Yot Freshwater Marsh was one of the highlights of our Thailand road trip. It looks like a set from a blockbuster film — I guarantee you’ll find yourself saying “wow” at least a few times here.

Hua Hin Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park Thung Sam Roi Yot Freshwater Marsh- - Thailand Road Trip

European villages, mild weather, and local wineries — a road trip to Khao Yai might just have you thinking you left the country.

Today, the original city lies in ruins (Ayutthaya was rebuilt in a new location). Here are some of Ayutthaya’s key landmarks!

Wat Chaiwatthanaram

But one remains untouched, entwined within the roots of a Banyan tree and is now the most photographed image of Ayutthaya.

Before Wat Yai Chaimongkhon was looted by the Burmese in 1767, the bell-shaped Chedi here was one of the most distinctive landmarks of Ayutthaya.  It wasn’t until the 1950s that major restoration works began, including this full sized replica of the reclining Buddha.

Our Experience Road-tripping from Bangkok 

Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park Drone Shot of Car - Bangkok Itinerary

We’ve visited Bangkok several times, but this was our first time renting a car and driving out of the city.

Hua Hin Golden Buddha Statue - Thailand Road Trip

We had a lot of fun during our Thailand road trip, belting out classics and taking in the gorgeous landscapes. This road trip even allowed us to chance upon several beautiful photo spots (like the one above!) along the way — places we wouldn’t have discovered if we didn’t drive.

Hat Yai to Bangkok

Hat Yai to Bangkok

Best options, other options, hat yai to bangkok schedule, how to get from bangkok to hat yai.

Buses and trains leave the southern transportation hub of Hat Yai heading northwards to the capital all day long. With buses you have more choices and spend less time on the move. With trains your journey lasts longer but if you buy a night sleeper, an 18-hour journey turns out to be not as bad as it seems at the beginning.

Billion Stars Express operates one bus a day from Hat Yai to Sungai Nibong on Pulau Pinang and to Butterworth , which sits on the mainland in Malaysia. The bus leaves from the company’s Hat Yai bus station in Sheutit Rd., off Sangchan Rd. The whole journey takes about three hours and costs THB350.

From Sungai Nibong, Billion Stars has a further connection to a 9.15pm bus heading to Ipoh . It takes two hours and THB170 to get there. The same bus proceeds then to Singapore to Golden Mine Tower (8hrs 40min, THB550).

Note: Before buying your ticket from Hat Yai to Malaysia or from Hat Yao to Singapore, check visa requirements for your passport.

Ticket Prices  from Hat Yai to Bangkok

Booking in advance, although more expensive than purchasing a ticket at the train station, is recommended for the Hat Yai to Bangkok train route because 1st and 2nd Class A/C Sleeper seats tend to be booked out days or weeks before the date of travel. Few people would opt to complete a 17 to 19 hour train journey in Thailand in a 3rd Class fan cooled seat unless they were on a very tight budget, or that was the only ticket available because they did not book in advance.

Three Ways to travel to Bangkok

There are three public transport options for the journey from Hat Yai to Bangkok: bus, train and plane. The bus is the cheapest option and takes 14 hours, about the same time as the fastest train service, but 2 hours quicker than trains with sleeper berths. You can also fly to Bangkok from Hat Yai for approximately the same price as a sleeper berth on a train, although if your budget is important you need to factor in the cost of getting to and from both airport and the cost of a stay in a hotel room for a night both of which mean that flying becomes more expensive than train travel.
