Big Mango Map - Greater Bangkok & Expressways

I would stop-over in Cha Am - Hua Hin on the way down. From there 7-8 hours. Chiang to Bangkok 7-8 then a couple more to Cha Am - Hua Hin.

Drive during the day.

Safe trip & lets us know how it went.

Yours truly

I would not even attempt to drive that far in one day, not even as far as Hua Hin from CM. I'm all in by the time I get to Bangkok.

If I were you I would stop in Ayutthaya, then the journey can be easily (and safely) completed in 2 days....and if you have never seen Ayutthaya it's well worth it so I'm told
