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.
