About the Bangkok → Hat Yai route
Hat Yai is the commercial heart of the deep south and the gateway to the Malaysian border — about 950 km down the Phetkasem Highway, a 13–14 hour haul usually done overnight. It’s one of the longest mainland routes in Thailand, so sharing the drive and the fuel makes a real difference versus going solo or taking the train.
Route taken: Phetkasem Highway (Route 4) — the full run down the peninsula
