A 2 Days 1 Night Romantic Road Trip from Bangkok


When you only have a weekend but your heart needs a break, Khao Yai is always the first destination that comes to mind.


For this trip, we planned a 2 days 1 night Khao Yai road trip, renting a Toyota Veloz from HAUP, picking up the car at Don Mueang Airport, and driving out of Bangkok at our own pace.


Just a few hours from the city, this short getaway gave us nature, beautiful stays, and sweet moments that made us fall in love with Khao Yai more than we expected.

Why Khao Yai Is Perfect for a Weekend Couple Trip


For couples living in Bangkok, Khao Yai is an ideal short escape. The drive is easy, the weather is cooler, and the scenery instantly feels different from the city. No heavy planning is needed, yet you still get meaningful time together.


This time, we chose to rent a car in Thailand for a Khao Yai trip with HAUP, mainly because we could pick up the car directly at Don Mueang Airport. Everything is managed through one app — no extra stops, no complicated paperwork.


The Toyota Veloz was surprisingly perfect for a couple’s road trip: easy to drive, smooth on highways, fuel-efficient, spacious enough for luggage, and confident on Khao Yai’s mountain roads. The entire journey felt relaxed from start to finish.

Day 1: From BKK to Nature


We left Don Mueang Airport early in the morning, driving casually with soft music and quiet conversations. Self-driving really changes the mood — it felt like the trip truly belonged to just the two of us. The drive from Bangkok to Khao Yai took around 2.5–3 hours, without rushing.

📍 Nature Time: Khao Yai National Park

We kept things light and easy — short walks, fresh air, and gentle nature moments.Highlights included:

  • Haew Suwat Waterfall, one of the most iconic waterfalls in Khao Yai

  • Short viewpoint trails, ideal for couples who want nature without exhaustion

It was refreshing, calm, and exactly what we needed.

📍 Romantic Stay: Toscana Valley

The highlight of Day 1 was Toscana Valley. This Italian-style resort feels like a small European village in the middle of Khao Yai. The evening light was magical — every corner felt photo-worthy. We walked around, took couple photos, and enjoyed a relaxed dinner. A simple but romantic way to end the day.



Day 2: Slow Morning Before Heading Back


We didn’t rush on the second day. Breakfast, fresh air, and quiet moments made the morning feel warm and unhurried.

After that, we drove back to Bangkok comfortably, returned the Toyota Veloz at Don Mueang Airport, and ended the trip right on time.
