The Ultimate Khao Yai Travel Guide For First Timers (Updated 2020)

In recent years, Khao Yai has become a very popular destination for tourists looking for a getaway within easy reach of Bangkok. Depending on traffic, it takes just two to three hours to drive from Bangkok to Khao Yai, where you will encounter gorgeous natural landscapes and a tranquil vibe. For my trip, I booked a private customised tour with Klook, which made planning a lot easier. Based on my own experience, I have created this Khao Yai travel guide for first time tourists.
