Description

We invite you to ride with us to see the two different sides of Thailand; travel through the stunning countryside of rural Thailand; and explore a mega city, Bangkok, on two wheels. This experience is designed for people who enjoy an active lifestyle, and have a sense of adventure. Its a magnificent way to discover Thailand.

Your tour will take you through Khao Yai; one of the largest National Parks in Thailand. Youll have the chance to see elephants, bears, and tigers as you cycle across the park. Well take you to the beautiful region of Wang Nam Kieo, famous for its grape, orchid, and mushroom farms.

This is more than just a cycling tour, its a cultural experience that will help you understand more about the country and its people.

If you would rather leave the bike behind, we can organise a Trekking Tour for you, which follows a very similar route (excluding Bangkok).
