Going from Bangkok to Tham Naka (Naga Cave)? Airport Transfer Bangkok picks you up at your door in Bangkok and drives you straight to Tham Naka (Naga Cave) in a private air-conditioned car. The trip is about 706 km and takes around 9 h 15 min without long stops. One fixed price per car, not per person.
Tham Naka, in Phu Langka National Park, Bueng Kan, is famous for huge sandstone rocks cracked into a pattern that looks like the scales of a giant naga serpent coiled in the forest. The trail up is steep with long stretches of steps and takes several hours there and back, and many visitors come out of devotion linked to the Mekong region's naga beliefs.
