The Drive in Thailand

Driving in Thailand can be an enriching experience as the surroundings offer a plethora of diversity. But it's essential to remember that people drive on the left-hand side of the road, similar to the UK. The signage is mostly in English and Thai, making navigation manageable.

Your Car Rental Choices

Whether you prefer small, compact, or luxury cars, U-Tapao Airport has a wide range of options. The car class you select should depend on your travel group, luggage, and the level of comfort you desire. Enjoy the luxury of exploring at your own pace.

Fuelling Your Trip

There are several refuelling stations near the airport and along your journey's route. It's worth noting that gas stations in Thailand are full service, so sit back and let the attendant fill up for you.

Getting From the Airport to Your Destination

The popular resort city of Pattaya is just a 40-minute drive from the airport. Similarly, the city of Rayong is around an hour's drive away. There's nothing quite like exploring these towns with the freedom that comes from having your own transport.

Thai Baht - Your Holiday Currency

The currency in Thailand is the Thai Baht (THB). We recommend carrying some cash for small expenses, while credit cards are widely accepted in major cities and tourist destinations.

Experience the Climate

Thailand has a tropical climate. Ensure to carry lightweight clothes if you're traveling between March and June when it is hottest. For the monsoon season (July to October), an umbrella or raincoat could be handy.

Exploring the Surroundings

Once you've settled in, consider taking a road trip to the historic city of Chanthaburi or the seaside town of Ban Phe, each only a few hours' drive from the airport. With your rental car, the choices are endless!
