hi guys, anyone have any recommendation for private driver to drive 2pax around for 2 day in hua hin? thanks

Sent from Huawei NEXUS 6P using GAGT

why would you do that?
its really fun and enjoying to drive in hua hin.

weather is good and slow pace.
people are forgiving and of course, adhere to traffic rules.

you can manage your own time if you were to drive.
Petrol are also cheap.

Hi people, hope you guys can help me out here, thanka in advance!!!

I'm going bkk next week and planning to go huahin 2d1n.
Taking the morning bus from Mo Chit area that bus terminal to huahin (6am bus?)
Arranged a driver to pick me and my friend to travel in huahin and cha-am for a day. We plan to take bus back to bkk the next day.

May I know where is the place for us to take a bus or minivan back? Budget wise so we didnt want to take a taxi back..

Thanks!!

Intend to take bus to HH and rent car for 2 days to explore the place.

For driving in HH.
is finding parking easy?
Do we need SUV/4wd? any off road?
Read about huahincarrental, any review? Do they provide zero access coverage?

Why don't drive direct from bkk?
Parking in Thailand usually quite easy . If you go night market area then car park might jam up. Have to find nearby place or wait.

Normal sedan will do. Nothing off road in hua hin I think.

No idea about that rental coy. But most if not all coy should provide insurance.

I'm for renting the car in Hua Hin, unless you are very experienced with driving in Thailand. It may be stressful to clear the traffic in Bangkok before you hit the stretch to Hua Hin. You'll also have to experience the same on your return. Thailand's traffic fatalities consistently top the world.

Unless you are those kind that get license but 10 years never drive kind then ok. Maybe just get and drive within hua hin.

Within bkk is really quite bad. But if saying highway itself is not that bad la. Same like sg everyday also jam what.

Driving from Bkk to Hua Hin is actually quite easy. And surely it will be much easier if you drive in Hua Hin.

For me I usually have a regular company I book my transfer to other provinces.

Any itinerary to share? Hw many days is recommended for Hua Hin
:o

Depending on whether self drive or not. And budget.

If not self drive then need higher budget cause gg to different places around hua hin u need to hire people to send u. Add up will be quite Abit. If so budget then no problem.

About 4 days I guess? Relax.

If stay only in hua hin Beach area that kind, then 2 I think good enough?
