Weekend Escape to Khao Yai
🌿 Day 1 – Arrival & Slow Start
✈️ Landed in Bangkok mid morning. Collected the rental car right at the airport.
🚗 Smooth drive to Khao Yai — about 2.5–3 hours, no rush, just enjoying the views. Stopped by 7 Eleven to grab snacks and foods to enjoy during road trip.
🏡 Checked in at Together Khao Yai. Love the beautiful design — cozy, clean, and peaceful.
☕ A simple day to unwind. Just checked in, relaxed, enjoyed the room, had coffee and cakes at a nearby cafe. No special plans, just settle in.
🍇 Day 2 – PB Valley Winery Day
🌤️ Easy morning with hotel breakfast.
🍷 Headed to PB Valley Winery — a must-visit in Khao Yai. With entrance fees, you get to try red wine (or grape juice if you prefer).
🍇 Wandered through the vineyards, enjoyed the fresh air, took photos, and just slowed down.
🛍️ Grabbed some local wine and snacks from their shop to bring home.
🍽️ Leisurely dinner back in town — plenty of local restaurant, we had thai stir fried street foods.
🛍️ Day 3 – IKEA & Back to Bangkok
☀️ No rush morning — breakfast, check out slowly.
🚗 Drove toward Bangkok with a stop at IKEA Bang Yai, the largest IKEA in Southeast Asia.
🛋️ Walked around the showrooms, grabbed some small home items, and of course, meatballs + Thai milk tea combo.
⛽ Drive back to Bangkok Airport to return the rental car.
✔️ A simple, relaxed 2 nights weekend trip before exploring busy Bangkok— nature, wine, good design, and no rush. Self-drive gave us the freedom to go at our own pace, stop where we like, and just enjoy the slow side of Thailand.
