$53 Car Rental Ekkamai

Ekkamai is full of fun adventures, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Rent some wheels and head off to see what's in the wider region. Here are a few ideas:

• Make your way to Pattaya for a fantastic sightseeing experience. Roughly 60 miles from Ekkamai, it has tons of cool sights such as Buddha Mountain.
• Roughly 90 miles away, Hua Hin is also a favorite with travelers. Make sure you take in Hua Hin Railway Station while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love this city.
• Get into the outdoors and take in the serenity at Klong Plu Waterfall. You'll find it about 160 miles from Ekkamai.

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Thailand, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
