Do note, roaming will not work here at yala province due to Thai government ban. You will have to get a local SIM. However, you can download Google maps before entry for offline navigation so you can still get navigation from border to Betong town if you only intend to get a SIM in town or not at all and depend on wifi.

*
Do you know if this is restricted to roaming from Msia phone or generally roaming from any country is restricted in Yala?

[Update]
Found my answer. It's for Malaysia mobile phone only

Just got back from a solo riding trip from KL - Krabi - KL via Betong and Wang Kelian border checkpoints. Avoided the usual popular checkpoints cause don’t wanna jam up with the lorries and all. No hassle going through these lesser known and relaxed checkpoints and I’m the first in queue at both checkpoints.

Total 6D5N
Day 1: KL - Betong (via WCE, Betong Checkpoint)
Day 2: Betong - Hatyai (via AH18)
Day 3: Hatyai - Krabi
Day 4: Krabi
Day 5: Krabi - Satun
Day 6: Satun - KL (via Wang Kelian Checkpoint, AH2)

Anyone who is on the fence about riding to Thailand, I would say, just do it. Great experience.

I will Just Do It when I can get a whole week off.
