Rent a Car at Lampang Airport (LPT)

Lampang Airport (LPT) serves the charming northern city of Lampang, known for its horse-drawn carriages and historic temples, and is located 3 km south of the city center. With a rental car from the airport's sole rental company, you can easily explore Northern Thailand's cultural treasures at your own pace. Lampang's oldest temple, Wat Phra That Lampang Luang, lies 18 km southwest of the airport and is considered one of the North's most beautiful.

Chiang Mai, the North's tourist hub, can be reached 100 km to the north via Highway 11 – just over 1.5 hours of driving. Book your rental car well in advance – with just one rental company at the airport, availability can be very limited, especially during peak season in November–February. Drive 30 km south to the Thai Elephant Conservation Center in Hang Chat for an ethical elephant experience without the masses of tourists.

Lampang's old town with its colonial buildings and Wang River is worth a stroll – park by the riverside and explore on foot. How far is it from Lampang Airport to the center? The airport is about 3 km south of Lampang's center, which takes approximately 5–10 minutes to drive.

Can I rent a car in Lampang and return it in Chiang Mai? It may be possible with a one-way rental to Chiang Mai (100 km to the north), but contact the rental company in advance as options are limited and extra fees may apply. Are there attractions near Lampang suitable for a day trip?
