Saraburi lies about 115 km from Bangkok along Phahonyothin Road or the motorway, roughly one and a half to two hours away. It is the gateway to the northeast and combines major temples such as Wat Phra Phutthabat Ratchaworamahawihan with the cooler countryside around Muak Lek. Kingtocar arranges private van charters here with a driver at one flat price, suiting temple pilgrimages, family trips to dairy farms and waterfalls, and business transport to the cement plants around Kaeng Khoi.
Bangkok to Saraburi
Muak Lek and Kaeng Khoi sit at the foot of the Khao Yai range and are noticeably cooler than Bangkok, especially from November to February — only ninety minutes away.
฿4,000 for a Toyota Commuter and ฿9,000 for a Toyota Alphard, including fuel, tolls, the driver and bottled water, with nothing added on arrival.
Saraburi sits before Khao Yai on the same road, so stopping at the dairy farms and Muak Lek waterfall en route works perfectly. Tell us the plan and we will sequence it without backtracking.
Cement plants and estates around Kaeng Khoi, plus the seminar resorts near Muak Lek, are regular destinations for us, and multiple vans can be booked together for larger groups.
Home to one of Thailand's most important Buddha footprint shrines, under a striking gilded mondop. The February and March pilgrimage festival draws exceptional crowds.
A mid-sized waterfall you can swim at, with a suspension bridge over the stream for photographs. Flow is strongest from late rainy season into early winter and thin in the dry months.
Run by the Dairy Farming Promotion Organization, with calf feeding and a tram tour of the farm. Great for children, and the fresh milk and milk ice cream are locally famous.
Quiet limestone cave temples for visitors who prefer calm to crowds. Some approaches are steep, so wear practical shoes.
Thailand's longest earthen dam, with a tram along the crest and viewpoints. Late in the year the weather is pleasant and flower fields sometimes bloom along the reservoir.
The Muak Lek to Pak Chong stretch has several vineyards and cafés with mountain views, ideal for a break or photographs. The driver will stop wherever you have planned.
