Can someone recommend an itinerary for Dec tour to Khao Yai, 4-5 days for family of 2 adults and 2 kids (age 8, 13)?
I know there are several wineries and sunflower farms. Which would you recommend?
Besides places to visit, please recommend places to eat too. Children eat non-spicy food only.
Thank you very much!

Hi, welcome to HWZ.
Khao Yai max 4d3n will do.
PB winery is the biggest, you can join their tour.
Most famous place to see sunflower is Saraburi and Rai maneesorn. You have to try your luck to see which has the better bloom.
Jim Thomson Farm open only once a year. this year is 7 dec to 5 jan.

In Khao Yai, there are many western restaurants and café. Only local food is spicy.
Check this website for attractions, hotels and restaurants.
