Let’s go on an unforgettable Thai road trip with us as we delve into the world of renting and driving a car in Thailand! Whether you're a seasoned traveler or planning your first Thai holiday, we've got you covered with essential tips and insights. Our experience was in renting and driving motorbikes on the roads here. So it was not the first time to drive on the left. This was our first experience of driving here with our child, so we were extra careful and one the look out for possible dangers and hazards.
In this video, we take you through our experience of renting a car in Thailand, sharing valuable information about prices, insurance and the amount of money we would possibly spend on own risk, if something went wrong or we - knock on wood - got into a car crash. Ofcourse we were very careful and we thankfully didn't get into any bad situations.
Families, most bigger and well known rental companies do have child seats. Think about companies like Budget Car Rental, Sixt, Hertz, Thai Rent A car, Chic Car Rent, Europcar, Keddy, Avis and Thrifty. Make sure to check out reviews online. They are different per location.
Navigating the vibrant streets of Koh Samui, we document our firsthand experience of driving in this beautiful country, giving you a taste of the adventures that await.
What makes our journey unique is that we're not alone - we're navigating the roads of Thailand with our two-year-old daughter Mia. Join us as we explore the family-friendly side of Thai travel. Safety is our priority so we make sure to give you child-friendly tips to ensure a worry-free vacation for parents. Also we like to keep it affordable with budget-friendly options.
Join us on this Thai escapade filled with adventures, discoveries, and family-friendly fun. By the end of this video, you'll have all the recommendations and advice you need to decide if renting and driving a car in Thailand is the right choice for your next holiday. Don't miss out on the thrill - hit play now and let the journey begin!

I’ve motorcycle toured in Thailand and drove in Thailand. Outside the cities it’s a pleasure, but you must drive defensively. I see a lot of westerners who are stupid.
I wanted to rent as well but the thing IDP is required Car rental co. They dont ask abt it. For phuket

We noticed some do and some don't as well. Think insurance will definitely ask for it if something happens.
Does the American license suffice? Cos i didn’t bring my international drivers license

Interesting question. After doing a quick Google search we read contradicting things. You could be good with just your US license, but it could be wise to check a bit more if you want to know for sure.

NO IDP is required if get caught 2000bht is fine
with a US Drivers License would you need a Int. Driving License?

For safety, we say always do it. Thailand does have a fair amount of accidents. From a law point of view Nationthailand.com says: Children under six years old must be placed in car seats that have proper harnesses and have passed the safety standards of the Thai Industrial Standards Institute or the drivers of the vehicles they are in will face fines of up to 2,000 baht, the Royal Thai Police (RTP) have announced.

Actually they have a very dodgy roads here specially outside the cities where many attractions are and the weather can be nasty here for driving.
