Travel by car from Chiang Mai to Hua Hin

[skorts]

 

Has anybody completed this journey recently?

If so, please can you share your experience. 

We are currently in Chiang Mai but keen to return to our home 30 kms south of Hua Hin and wondering if it is possible/advisable given the current situation.

No problems...it is your home and as you can show evidence of this then you are free to travel....you may have to do 14 days house quarantine on arrival though

situations might be different provinces to provinces but people have been saying inter provincial travel was "difficult"

 

I went to Bangkok to bring my friend back because there was no bus or minivans and I didn't want to pay for the 1600 taxi.

 

I went through Phetchaburi, Samut Songkhram, Samut Sakhon, half of Bangkok and doubled it back and was stopped exactly once for a temperature check and no questions asked.

I have also been in Hua Hin two days ago and saw a roadblock set up but they were all lounging at the side of the road (around 8:30pm) both ways.

 

the only issue you might encounter is if any of the provinces are on lockdown like Phuket and Pattaya were/are at the moment then they might question more but as long as you have your passport i don't see much happening to be honest.
