Going from Phuket to Thao Suranari Monument (Ya Mo)?

The trip is about 1130 km and takes around 14 h 45 min without long stops. One fixed price per car, not per person.
The Thao Suranari Monument, known affectionately as Ya Mo, stands before the old Chumphon Gate in the centre of Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat). It honours Lady Mo, who rallied the townspeople against a Lao army in 1826, and locals visit all day to pray and leave offerings; the big Thao Suranari festival fills the square from late March into early April.
