Mekong Tour (15 days/2500 km)
This is a
ride into unspoiled Mekong River region, where rural life is like
centuries ago. We shall ride 700 kilometres along Mekong
river through the region least touched by progress and somewhat missing out on the
prosperity experienced by other parts of the Kingdom. We shall start on eastern
coast of Siam Bay, visit Angkor Wat in Cambodia, colourful Isaan villages, relaxing
tree-lined avenues of Vientiane, the capital of Laos, intriguing forest temples
and waterfalls,
noisy Indochina market in Nong Khai, take a boat trip across Mekong River to Laos and
to prehistoric rock paintings and admire the natural wonder of tropical
rainforests of Khao Yai and bustling streets of Bangkok. Two days in the seaside
resort near Bangkok, three days in Khmer country along Cambodian border, six
days along Mekong river, a day in Vientiane, three days in the mountains of Loei
and Khao Yai and finally a day and half in Bangkok for shopping. You will get
your visa for Laos and Cambodia at the border (only passport required).
