What is there to do in Saraburi? That was the question I asked myself when I decided to go off the beaten path, went out, and explored some of the provinces around Bangkok.
To my surprise, Saraburi was one of the most interesting provinces I explored in Central Thailand. The province is home to some of the most stunning waterfalls in the country, rivaling those in Kanchanaburi.
Saraburi is also known within the local community as a growing agrotourism spot, with many flower and fruit farms that have been converted into tourist attractions where you can interact with nature up close.
Due to its proximity, just 110km north of the capital, Saraburi makes for a great and quick travel destination to escape the bustling city of Bangkok and be surrounded by nature and mountainous landscapes as far as the eye can see.
Within this travel guide, you will find all the information you need to plan a quick trip to Saraburi from Bangkok, including a list of awesome things to do for solo travelers, where to stay, and how to get around. Without further ado, let's take a look at the Saraburi things to do itinerary map.

Saraburi Things to Do Itinerary Map
7 Best Things to Do in Saraburi
1. Hike Krok E-Dok Waterfall
One of my favorite hikes I've done in Saraburi is the trail to the top level of the stunning Krok E-Dok Waterfall. The trail is around 4.5 km, and it will take you almost 6 hours to complete the hike, so be sure to spare an entire day for this.
Like most hiking trails in national parks in Thailand, you are required to be accompanied by at least one local ranger during the hike, and the Krok E-Dok Waterfall hike is no exception.
To begin your hike to Krok E-Dok Waterfall, you will have to park your car at the assigned parking lot before you arrive at the waterfall, get yourself registered with the park rangers at the Bueng Mai Night Market up the road, pay 250 THB, and they will assign you to the next group heading to the top with 2 rangers.
- Simon Inn Hotel (Budget)
- Glai Gan Place Hotel (Mid-Range) 👍 Top Pick
- Mela Garden Retreat Cottage (High-End)
- From Kanchanaburi: Erawan Waterfalls and Hellfire Pass (8 hours) 🏅 Top Pick
- From Kanchanaburi: Erawan National Park Half Day (4 hours)
- From Kanchanaburi: Kanchanaburi City Tour Half Day (3 hours)
The hike opens from August to December (subject to change), except when the water level gets too high, which often happens after heavy rain. That said, they only allow a limited number of hikers per day, with around 3 trips on weekdays and a maximum of 6 trips on weekends, so be sure to come as early as you can.
The first trip will leave at 8 AM, and the last will be around 10-11 AM. I arrived at the parking lot at 9 AM and got to go with the second group of the day, so be sure to plan your drive the day before.
If you are a solo traveler or in a small group, you don't have to book as they often reserve a few spots for walk-in hikers. However, if you are in a large group, I highly recommend reserving a time slot and spots beforehand.
You can reserve a time slot and spots by calling one of these numbers: 085-968-3520, 089-237-8659.
The Krok E-Dok Waterfall hike will take you deep into the jungles of the famous Khao Yai National Park, where you will be hiking through some of the most beautiful vegetation in the region.
You will likely encounter several of the vivid red Fungi Cups, or as the locals call them, the "Champagne mushrooms", on your way to the top level of Krok E-Dok Waterfall.
You will get wet the moment you start the trail, and you will continue to do so seven more times throughout the two-hour hike to the top. So, if you were hoping to keep your shoes dry as I did, don't 😅. The trail is pretty flat for the first kilometer or so before it gets really steep.
Along the way, you will encounter countless waterfalls before you arrive at the first level of Krok E-Dok Waterfall. From there, the trail goes straight up to Krok E-Dok Waterfall level 8, with the level 5 to level 8 portion of the trail being the steepest and slipperiest.
Thankfully, they have installed ropes to help you through the slippery parts, so as long as you are careful with your footing, you should be fine. Once you are at the top, you will get to see the source of all the waterfalls you have encountered: the level-8 of the mighty Krok E-Dok Waterfall.
You can stop here for lunch and spend an hour or so taking photos and resting before you start heading down. Be very careful with your timing here, especially if it is raining, as the streams you will have to cross back will get significantly deeper and stronger the more it rains. The rangers will tell you when to leave, so keep an eye out for them when you are out exploring the waterfall.
By the time you get back to the parking lot, it will probably be around 4 PM, so you will only have time left for one last tourist attraction before nightfall. Thankfully, the next tourist attraction is not far from Krok E-Dok Waterfall.
Where to Stay in Saraburi, Thailand?
2. Visit Wat Pa Sawang Bun
Only a few kilometers away from Krok E-Dok Waterfall parking lot, you will find Wat Pa Sawang Bun, a temple built in 1985 where you will find a stunning temple surrounded by over 500 golden stupas.
At the center of the temple, you will find a central pagoda with a beautiful mosaic ceiling inside. The golden stupas reminded me of Borobudur but were built in the modern Buddhist way.
There's plenty of parking lot at Wat Pa Sawang Bun, and there is no entrance fee, so stopping here on your way back from Krok E-Dok Waterfall is a no-brainer. The temple opens from 6 AM to 6 PM.
3. Take Photos with Brooming Flowers at BigTae Garden
One of the things that Saraburi is known for in the Thai community is its thriving agrotourism ecosystem, and one of the most popular places to visit in the region is BigTae Garden.
BigTae Garden is a 33-acre flower/fruit plantation turned tourist attraction where you will be able to get up close to all the colorful flowers and have access to some of the finest locally-made products.
For 20 THB, you will have access to the flower gardens where you will find many colorful flowers and blooming crops all around you. You can roam freely however you like and take as many photos as you want here.
Once you are done, you can rest at their spacious cafe with cold drinks and snacks while enjoying the view overlooking the plantation. It is a great place for you to relax and unwind for the day. You will definitely appreciate the tranquility, especially after hiking Krok E-Dok Waterfall.
At BigTae's Cafe, be sure to try out their signature Iced Buttery Pea Lemon drink and their homemade Dim Sum, all locally made from the plantation. It's a great sustainable way to run a business, which I fully support.
Fun fact, the owner Tae is a close friend of mine from my university years. So, if you end up visiting BigTae Garden and meet the owner himself, be sure to let them know that you read it from Pete's Blog and let me know 😉.
BigTae Garden opens from 8 AM to 5:30 PM every day. Since BigTae garden is pretty far from the city, be prepared to drive about an hour from Saraburi city to get here. Do not worry, we will be stopping at other tourist attractions along the way, and I guarantee you it is well worth the drive.

If you are looking for more activities to do here, be sure to check out some of the available tours and day trips:
- From Kanchanaburi: Erawan Waterfalls and Hellfire Pass (8 hours) 🏅 Top Pick
- From Kanchanaburi: Erawan National Park Half Day (4 hours)
- From Kanchanaburi: Kanchanaburi City Tour Half Day (3 hours)
4. Visit Chet Sao Noi Waterfall National Park
On your way back from BigTae Garden, you will want to stop at Chet Sao Noi Waterfall National Park, a rainforest park featuring a beautiful 7-tiered waterfall where you can stroll around or swim in a designated area.
Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, swimming is prohibited for the time being. However, even then, the park has plenty of shaded areas for you to relax and enjoy the breeze.
The waterfall is quite nice, a bit small, but after seeing the Krok E-Dok Waterfall, your expectations have to be adjusted 🤣. There are well-paved walk paths that will take you from the first to the fifth tier before the paved walk path ends.
There are also cafes and food stalls selling outside the park's entrance, so you can break that one-hour drive back here with a cup of coffee and a stunning view.
5. Check Out the Golden Spire of Wat Phra Phutthabat
If you are coming from Lopburi, you can visit this temple and the next one on your way to Saraburi. However, if you are coming from the East, you can drive past Saraburi City towards Lopburi, and you will find one of the most revered temples in the province, Wat Phra Phutthabat.
Are you looking for a comprehensive travel guide to Lopburi? Check out the 10 Best Things To Do In Lopburi.
Back in the day, the local Thai-Chinese community highly revered Wat Phra Phutthabat. Now, the temple is known for its spectacular golden spire that puts all other temples to shame. Inside, you will also find Buddha's footprint, where the locals often worship.
Wat Phra Phutthabat opens from 7:30 AM to 5 PM, and it is free to enter. You can park your car in front of the temple, where a local market is located. You can also buy some delicious snacks here at a local price, so be sure to browse around before leaving.
6. Admire at All the Massive Black Buddha Images at Wat Tham Krabok
Not too far from Wat Phra Phutthabat, you will also find another temple that is worth your visit. Wat Tham Krabok is a temple where you will find several massive black Buddha images that you don't often see in Thailand.
Due to its location away from the cities, surrounded by mountains and nature, the temple also serves as a rehabilitation center for addicts. As a result, you will find some interesting characters walking around the temple. Apparently, even westerners come all the way from their home country to be treated here.
There are no opening hours or entrance fees for Wat Tham Krabok, so you are free to enter whenever you like. However, when I was there, some of the big Buddha images were still under construction, and you would have to walk through a construction site to reach another monument. Therefore, be sure to watch your step.
7. Hike Around Namtok Samlan National Park
Last but not least, there is no better way to end this Saraburi trip than to visit another waterfall, or several of them, at Namtok Samlan National Park.
Namtok Samlan National Park is a popular camping area for locals to escape the city life and be with nature for a night or two. Even though most locals will only stay at the reservoir and camp, we will go deeper into the forest and hike to some of the waterfalls tucked away in the national park.
Once you get to the entrance of the waterfall, you will have to pay 100 THB for the entrance fee, plus an additional 30 THB for a car. Once you are done, you can drive into the national park and start hiking.
When you enter the park, you will see a lake on your left, where all the campers are. You will have to drive a little further and park your car right before you arrive at Namtok Samlan National Park Office.
There are several hiking trails in Namtok Samlan National Park, including a 5 km nature trail that will take you to Roi Kuek Ma Waterfall through all the waterfalls in the park, which I didn't do because I didn't have enough daylight.
Another hike that I recommend is a shorter trail that takes about 30 minutes, and it will take you to the three major waterfalls: Ton Rak Sai Waterfall, Pho Hin Dat Waterfall, and Samlan Waterfall, which is the biggest one of all.
To hike this shorter trail, you will first have to find the trailhead. From your parking lot, walk east across all the bike paths, and you will find a trailhead that will take you to Ton Rak Sai Waterfall, which is the first station of the 5 km nature trail.
At Ton Rak Sai Waterfall, walk across the stream to the other side and continue along the trail until you find a directional sign above. We will go right to Pho Hin Dad Waterfall, which is only 100m away, and once you are done, backtrack your way to this directional sign and head towards the headquarters instead.
Following the 400m path to the headquarters, you will merge back onto the main road in front of the Namtok Samlan National Park Office. From there, you will have to head south to the trailhead for Samlan Waterfall and walk the easy trail to your final destination.
Samlan Waterfall is the most impressive of all, with several cascades all lined up in 3 tiers, and a ton of water flowing into this large pond in front. You can dip your feet in or walk along the cascade, as I did in the photo above 😉.
The whole trail should take you no more than 30 minutes, and you will already see all the highlights in the national park. Since you are allowed to camp here, the park is open 24 hours, but I'd recommend you visit the park during the day and hike only when there's enough daylight.
What to Eat and Drink in Saraburi?
1. Relax With a Cup of Coffee at Sathien Simple Space Cafe
If you are looking for a nice, quiet, and spacious cafe in Saraburi, I recommend you give Sathien Simple Space Cafe a try.
Sathien Simple Space Cafe is both a cafe and a workspace, and they serve coffee as well as all kinds of western foods. It's quite pricey for Saraburi, but you really do get what you paid for here.
With its high ceiling interior, quiet cozy atmosphere, and delicious selection of food and drink, Sathien Simple Space Cafe has got to be one of my favorite cafes in Saraburi.
2. Eat Delicious Thai Food at Cafe Inn Factory
While you are out exploring the eastern side of Saraburi province, I'd recommend you stop by at Cafe Inn Factory for lunch. They serve delicious Thai food at affordable prices, which is great if you are in a big group or if you are looking for a nice place to try out different Thai dishes.
My local friend from BigTae Garden took me to Cafe Inn Factory, and I love it. To get there, you will have to go through some really narrow streets, but I assure you, the food is well worth the drive.
Technically, Café Inn Factory is not exactly in Saraburi province, but if you are already at BigTae Garden or Chet Sao Noi Waterfall National Park and looking for a nice place to eat, this is the place to be.
When to Visit Saraburi, Thailand?
The best time to visit Saraburi is from November to January when the weather is cooler and less humid due to Thailand's climate, making it much more enjoyable to ride a scooter or walk around.
That said, Thailand has suffered a lot from air pollution in recent years due to the burning season, which is extremely prevalent during Thailand's winter period (December - January). So, even though the weather is cooler, your visibility might not be the best. Be sure to buy a face mask if you decide to visit Thailand during this time.
March - April is the hottest and most humid period of the year, so if you can't handle heat very well, avoid visiting during this time. The air quality may be a bit better during this time, though it's not guaranteed.
All the other months are considered to be a rainy season, which, even though the weather is a little more manageable than the summer months, you will also be seeing a lot more rain, which might prevent you from enjoying the outdoors. Air quality during this time should be better due to the rain.
As you can see, the best time to visit Thailand used to be during its wintertime, BUT now that the air quality is getting worse and worse, you will have to decide which is more important to you as a traveler: good weather but bad air quality or vice versa.
How to Get to Saraburi, Thailand?
Saraburi is located 110 km north of Bangkok. In order to get from abroad to Saraburi, you will first have to get yourself to Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand. Thankfully, Bangkok is a major hub in Southeast Asia, so there are several ways you can get to the city from where you live.
From the US, unfortunately, there are no direct flights to Bangkok, so you will have to rely on transit flights by Emirates, Qatar, or Turkish Airlines from the East Coast or ANA Airlines or Korean Air from the West Coast.
From Europe, you can fly from most popular European hubs like London, Paris, or Frankfurt via Thai Airways or local carriers such as British Airways, Air France, or Lufthansa to Bangkok. You can also choose to go with Etihad, Qatar, or Emirates if you don't mind transiting.
From within Asia, there are several low-cost airlines offering multiple routes from various hub cities such as Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, Jakarta, and Bangkok. AirAsia and Thai Lion Air are excellent low-cost options.
To find a cheap flight to Bangkok, I would recommend that you use Skyscanner or Expedia to look for the cheapest route and schedule, so you can compare and pick the best one.
Getting from Bangkok to Saraburi
Getting from Bangkok to Saraburi by Buses/Vans
To get from Bangkok to Saraburi by buses/vans, you will have to take a minivan from the Mini-Bus stand across the road from the Morchit Bus Terminal.
You can reach Morchit Bus Terminal from almost anywhere in Bangkok via either MRT station Kamphaeng Phet or BTS Morchit station, and then from there, you can take a taxi to Morchit Bus Terminal. The taxi should cost no more than 50 THB.
Once you arrive at the Morchit bus terminal, cross the road to the mini-bus stand with the footbridge and go to Building B to buy your ticket at one of the kiosks inside. Once you arrive at Building B, the people and the kiosks will direct you to the right one. Just tell them that you want to go to Saraburi, and you should be on your way.
The mini-bus and vans from Bangkok to Saraburi leave every hour from 5 AM to 9 PM every day. The journey will take around 2 hours, and the ticket will cost about 120-140 THB. When you buy your ticket, they will ask you where you want to get dropped off.
You do not have to reserve your ticket beforehand, as Saraburi doesn't get as many tourists as other places. But, for peace of mind, you can browse through some of the available options with the link below:

Getting from Bangkok to Saraburi by Trains
To get from Bangkok to Saraburi by train, you can catch the train from Bangkok's Hua Lamphong Central Train Station. You can get from anywhere in Bangkok to Hua Lamphong Train Station via MRT underground train, where you can get off at Bang Sue MRT Station and walk up the stairs. You should be within walking distance to Hua Lamphong Central Train Station.
For the train schedule, there are 14 trains per day that leave from Bangkok and pass through Saraburi almost every hour, starting from 5:20 AM to 10:45 PM. Since there are many trains connecting the two cities per day, you do not need to book a ticket for the trip.
A train journey from Bangkok to Saraburi and vice versa will take about 2.5 hours, and it will cost you around 24 THB per person for a third-class seat. Once you arrive in Saraburi, get off at Saraburi Train Station, and you should be right in the city center where you can then catch a motor-taxi waiting at the entrance to your accommodation.

How to Get Around Saraburi Province, Thailand?
One of the reasons why Saraburi is not so popular among foreign tourists is because of how spread out the tourist attractions are. In order to visit these places, it is important that you have your own vehicle. Public transportation is rarely available outside of the city, and you won't be able to go anywhere far without your own car.
Renting a Car in Saraburi
For car rental in Saraburi, you can rely on Rentalcars.com to find the right car for your journey. The car rental price in Saraburi ranges from 790 THB to 1500 THB per day. Click on the link below to browse through available car options.
To rent a car, you will need a valid driving license (a foreign driving license is fine), a 3,000 THB deposit (which will be refunded when you return the car). All you have to do is fill in the form, set up a pick-up/drop-off time and place, and you are on your way.
How Many Days Do I Need For Saraburi?
With your own vehicle, you will only need 2 days (3 nights) at most to see all the attractions I have listed in this guide. Here is a breakdown of the 2-day Saraburi itinerary.
Day 1: Start early and hike to Krok E-Dok Waterfall. The hike will take 6 hours, and you can stop at Wat Pa Sawang Bun along the way.
Day 2: Go to Chet Sao Noi Waterfall National Park in the morning, and continue to BigTae Garden. Once you are done, drive back and visit Wat Tham Krabok and Wat Phra Phutthabat before ending your day with a small hike at Namtok Samlan National Park.
How Much Money Do I Need For Saraburi?
With a 2-day Saraburi itinerary above, we can roughly calculate how much you will be spending on this trip as follows:
Accommodation: For 3 nights of accommodation in Saraburi, you can expect to pay around 57 USD for accommodation.
Food: Food in Saraburi should cost around 40 - 60 THB per meal, so you can expect to pay around 300 THB for 2 days in Saraburi province.
Transportation: Including the train from Bangkok to Saraburi (48 THB) and a 2-day car rental (1600 THB) plus gas (~600 THB), you can expect to pay around 2,256 THB for transportation.
Activities: For the Krok E-Dok Waterfall hike, you will have to pay a fixed rate of 250 THB. For Namtok Samlan National Park, the entrance fee is 100 THB for foreigners (20 THB for Thais) plus 30 THB for cars. BigTae Garden is 20 THB flat. Namtok Chet Sao Noi National Park entrance fee is also 100 THB for foreigners (20 THB for Thais) plus 30 THB for cars. In total, you will be paying 530 THB for activities for the entire itinerary.
Total budget for 2 days in Saraburi province: 4,864.54 THB (156 USD).
Is it Safe in Saraburi?
Since you will be driving most of the time, the thing to worry about is the road. As some of you may know, Thai drivers aren't the best in the world, with lots of fast pick-up trucks and container trucks sharing the road. So be sure to be extra vigilant when you are driving in Thailand.
Another area that you should be careful of is when you are hiking in Krok E-Dok Waterfall. The trail can get slippery at times, and the last stretch goes straight up along a steep slope, so be sure to have good sturdy shoes with you.
Also, for the Krok E-Dok hike, you will be crossing knee-to-waist deep streams 8 times. So, be sure to wear something that you don't mind getting soaked. You will have 2 local guides with you at all times, and they will help direct you through the hike, so there's nothing to worry about.
Which tourist SIM card is best for Thailand?
Update: If your phone supports eSIM, I highly recommend checking out Airalo, a global eSIM marketplace. It allows you to stay connected affordably while traveling in Saraburi, Thailand without having to switch out your physical SIM card.
Gone are the days when you needed to scramble to find a local SIM card at an airport upon arrival. You can purchase an eSIM before your arrival, and you'll be good to go. If your phone doesn't support eSIM, here is how you can get a local SIM card in Saraburi, Thailand:
There are 3 major carriers in Thailand: AIS, DTAC, and True. All of them offer a pretty similar range of traveler's packages and coverages. Personally, I use AIS as I have been with them since my first phone. They have a lot of Support Centers around Thailand, and their coverage hasn't failed me yet. So, if you are looking for a reliable carrier, I can recommend AIS.
There are 3 packages for tourists: 5 GB for 5 days at 160 THB, 15 GB for 8 days at 299 THB, and 30 GB for 15 days. Depending on how long your trip to Thailand will be, you can pick one of these 3 packages that fit your itinerary the most.
With these three packages, you can top up more in case you need additional data or calls for your trip. More often than not, 5 GB is more than enough for me to travel around Thailand for a month.
For more information about Thailand's local SIM card: Thailand's Prepaid Data SIM Card.
Tips: To stay connected with people at home, be sure that you have a VPN, such as ProtonVPN, installed before traveling. It's FREE, and you can gain access to services that may be blocked in certain countries.
What to Pack for Saraburi, Thailand?
As you may already know, I am an advocate of light traveling, and indeed, packing light for a journey like this is a unique art form. Here are some packing tips for your upcoming trip to Saraburi, Thailand:
- Walking/Hiking Shoes: With all the walking and possible hiking during your travel, a comfortable pair of shoes is a must. I recommend the Timberland 3-Eye Classic Boat Shoes that are my go-to pair for long strolls and hikes.
- Breathable Shirts: Given the potential for hot weather, pack a few breathable shirts for your outdoor adventures.
- Shorts/Jeans: Anticipate lots of walking during your travels? Be sure to pack some breathable shorts and a pair of Levi's jeans for when the weather cools. For women, leggings are excellent for both hot and cold climates, so consider packing some as well.
- Outer Shell Jacket: An outer shell jacket is great for windy or rainy conditions. I highly recommend the Columbia Watertight Jacket (for women). It's lightweight, breathable, and even comes in a cool orange color.
- Microfiber Towel: A Microfiber towel is the ideal backpacker's towel due to its lightness, quick drying, and compressibility.
- Swim Suits: A swim trunk is a must-pack item if you are planning to visit Saraburi, Thailand in the summer, just in case there is a body of water you can jump in.
- Camera: You should also pack a good camera for your trip so that you can capture all the beautiful experiences you might have. I recommend the Sony a7R V camera together with the Sony 24-70mm f2.8 GM II lens, which is probably the highest-performance camera and lens combination you can get right now.
- Power Bank: Keep your electronics charged on the go with a 20,000+ mAh Power Bank.
- Water Bottle: The Hydro Flask Trail Water Bottle is a great insulated water bottle to have with you in cities or on hiking trails. It is lightweight and can keep your water cold or warm for more than 12 hours. It's a total game-changer.
- Universal Adapter: You'll need just one universal adapter to plug in your electronics in any country you visit.
- Packing Cubes: Packing Cubes will help you save space in your backpack and keep all your belongings organized.
- Daypack: The Langly Alpha Globetrotter is my go-to everyday camera backpack. It's large enough to carry all my travel gear, and it comes with plenty of slots and pouches. Plus, it's stylish as hell!
- Large Backpack: You will need a large backpack to carry all of your stuff. I recommend the Osprey Atmos AG 65L backpack. With excellent weight distribution and a lifetime guarantee, you can't go wrong with Osprey.
