Escorted motorcycle tours around Thailand
 
Discover what some tourists already know: that seeing Thailand is not an endless succession of cities and overcrowded tourist resorts. Travelling by motorbike, you will see them all right, but you will also encounter an authenticity beyond the reach of average traveller. Anyone who has toured this beautiful, varied and uncrowded country on motorcycle will tell you, "Thailand and motorcycles are perfect match!" Warm climate, excellent secondary road system with well maintained surfaces, light traffic, courteous drivers and choice of routes turn motorcycle touring into a pleasant holiday experience.
 
Touring options
We have captured all of Thailand - North with its mountains, East with mighty Mekong river, South with islands and sand beaches, West with tropical rainforests around River Kwai Death Railway, and emerald green rice paddies of Central Plains into our four motorcycle touring itineraries:
  • Grand Tour - 2700 kilometres/1700 miles. We ride from Gulf of Thailand palm fringed tropical beaches to the foothills of Himalayas over 2000 meters high mountain passes to Northernmost of Thailand - the Golden Triangle where we cross the border to Laos and Burma.
  • Mekong Tour - 2750 kilometres/1730 miles. We turn East, visit Angkor Wat temples in Cambodia and ride along mighty Mekong River to the Laos capital Vientiane.
  • Southern Tour - 2300 kilometres/1400 miles. We follow the Malayan peninsula's coastlines of Pacific and Indian Ocean stopping in Ko Samui , Krabi and Khao Lak.
  • Eastern Tour - 1250 kilometres/800 miles. For those on tight schedule and who prefer shorter motorcycle rides we have a 10 day tour, where we explore white sand beaches, a tropical island Ko Samet, ride through hilly area along Thai Cambodian border and visit two UNESCO World Heritage sites - rainforest clad mountains - Khao Yai national park and Angkor Wat temples in Cambodia.
Touring style
 
With twelve years of experience organizing motorcycle tours around Thailand we have carefully planned each tour to include leisurely ride along safe, spectacular and scenic secondary roads with beautiful panoramic views and expose riders to region's culture, history and cuisine.
  • Most of our motorbike tours last fourteen days; eleven days on the road including half day rides and days off, with 100 to 300 km a day and three days in the beach resort.
  • Our tours are motorcycling holidays not TT races and are not only about motorcycle riding. We swim under the waterfalls, ride elephants, take river and island boat trips, cycle, trek the tropical rainforests and enjoy nights out. Our escorted motorcycle tours are made of small groups; up to six motorcycles accompanied by tour leader.
  • Tours start and end at the Jomtien Beach only a short drive from Bangkok Airport. This tourist resort is an ideal starting point for motorbike tours because it does not take long to leave 21st century hectic traffic behind.
  • We use light and responsive Honda Custom motorcycles that handle well. They are "rider friendly" and particularly popular among older and female riders.
  • Riding with us you will see "real Thailand" and also have a chance to visit neighbouring Laos, Burma and Cambodia on optional day trips with visas arranged at the border crossings.
