Here good place for hitchhike, you can wait after Shell gas station. Don't forget to buy Water... Here so hot

Again here don't much have lights but in day time good for hitchhike

Here have good place for stop car's but don't try at night because don't have much light.

Here good spot because everybody going north.

Just say Sabaidee for locals and they will try to help you. After this town, road amazing and cold. Don't forget wear clothes for cold weather. But until Korat this road AMAZİNGGGGG

Near Train station. You can rest, eat and drink cold something. I found car to go Kabin Kao

After resting area , I walked 3km to another road. There have a patrol station and easy for find car to north east Thailand

I come here and find mosque, Muslim people gave me food and water. After I found a car but wrong way (xD) anyway, road is road so I move Chonburi

Hard to find car here because still near city. I waited more than 1 hour and just found someone to take me

It's an easy spot for hitchhiking. This highway goes directly to Bangkok. I hitchhiked from the same spot in 2024 and 2026 and only waited 10 minutes.

Waited for less than 10 min, got a HH from european guy. If you head south just stick to gas stations on the highway. Managed to get all the way to Bangkok with a very chill pace in 3 days by sticking to the highway.

^ Ignore this spot, I misplaced a marker :P

It's just pure luck, the guy happened to pull over for his lunch break.

PT station has large on-ramp good for pulling over.

Good spot to wait for a car, some shade under the trees (necessary in mid day), at the exit of Esso gas station. I waited around an hour, and got a ride for Tak.

Come here, opposite "SMALL COFF SLOWBAR". The cool young guys in the café will help you find a ride to Betong. They literally let me sit in the garden offered a cold coffee while one of them, Husen, was hitchhiking on my behalf. They immediately gave my contact to 2 brothers in Betong who later picked me up by their scooters, treated me with Roti and rice, offered me a shower at their family's home which is also a second hand clothing shop to trade your stuff at, showed me around the town and took me on scooter first and on foot then up to the Malaysian passport control, way after sunset. Don't hitchhike opposite the gas station 150m east under the tree shade, drivers are too busy with not running into each other

Wonderful road and amazing people. This is PTT, the first gas station to the south direction. How to get here? From Yala train station, exit the building, turn right and walk 150m till the Songthaew (shared, open taxis) on the right, ask for Bannang Sareng (south of Yala town, 20baht) or Krong Pinang (here, 30 baht). Songthaews should leave also Saha Yala transport company (check google maps), not sure about the main bus terminal in the west. If you get a ride to the next town Bannang Sata follow my indications on the green hitchhiking spot below 👇🏽

Very nice traffic light, 145 seconds of red light vs 54 seconds of green light, a lot of traffic.

This guy goes through everyday and picks every hitcher. But from my understanding Thai ppl donuts have problems picking us so it should be easy. Take the nearby metro here and walk to this spot

Leaving Bangkok Take the local old-style bus 68-REG from Bang Lamphu to Samut Sakhon for 28 baht. Pay attention and ask the driver, as there's another bus n. 68 driving within the city. It took 90 minutes on Sunday 1pm, while Maps suggests 180 minutes in weekdays. Don't get off at the intercity vans stop close to pier and trains, where most passenger go. (You can see the highway from that bus stop) Wait for the local bus terminal. Walk 5 minutes to the last entrance into the highway. Cars leaving the town are queueing and have time to approach you. A kind girl driving around on her free day offered me a ride to Phetchaburi even she was just planning to go 10km far, she gifted me an umbrella

After resting area , I walked 3km to another road. There have a patrol station and easy for find car to north east Thailand

Ride to Millsboro with a guy who was Doordashing. Said he wanted to touch sand in Thailand someday.

Pretty good spot, hid in the shade of a signpost. Lots of space for cars to stop. Trucks too. Had 6 people stop, ask if I was ok, and offer to take me to the bus station. Difference between Thailand and Cambodia was very obvious.

PTT gas station - This is one of the best spot in Bangkok to hitchhike south. I was going south, then I wrote a sign to Samut Songkhram (สมุทรสงคราม) first, but the car only took me to Samut Sakhon (สมุทรสาคร), 10 km away. You can get a cardboard from automobile shop at the end of gas station ** PTT station is the best gas station to hitch a ride in Thailand.

great spot for heading south or north, lots of room for cars to pull over. This is one of the main north/south transport links in thailand. i found a ride for all the way to bangkok! i waited maybe between 1-2 hours

many many cars heading north. small layby for stopping (its thailand, so no need for gas station to wave cars down, they stop anywhere!) found a lift to nakhon sawan quite quick. remember to use both western and asian methods of stopping cars (western thumb and asian vertical hand wave)

Hitchhike to Vietnam,Combodia,Thailand,Laos,China,Nepal
