It was a rather boring drive… We did 6 stops I think, only one was long enough for us to get out of the bus and buy some snacks and go to the toilets. If I had to do it again I would probably hire a driver and plan the trip with visits to certain areas along the way.
Be sure to visit all the ancient buddhas my favourite being Wat Sri Chum
