What is the best approach for a visa run in Thailand with a toddler?

Visa Run Advice Needed for Mom & Toddler (Chiang Mai)

For context:

• US passport holders

• Received 60-day exemption on arrival + paid for 30-day extensions already.

Hi everyone, I’m hoping for some advice on doing a visa run with my toddler.

This will be my first (and only) visa run before applying for the DTV at the end of the year. I’m trying to figure out what’s most practical with a little one:

• Should we just fly out, stay overnight (maybe one or two nights), then fly back in?

• Or would it be better to go with one of the border run companies/private van services that handle everything in a same-day trip?

Any recommendations or tips would be greatly appreciated — especially from other parents who’ve done this with kids.

Thanks in advance 😊
