This 9-day South Thailand tour is a ride amongst spectacular scenery and breathtaking beaches. We ride among coconut palms, rubber plantations and mangroves, exploring a surprisingly diverse and beautiful part of Thailand.
Our journey starts in the little visited province of Trang as we wind our way up the coastline through the dramatic landscapes of Krabi and Phang Nga Bay.
Staying clear of the tourist centres, we will show you the peaceful countryside of Southern Thailand before arriving at Khao Sok National Park, home to one of the few remaining rainforests in Southeast Asia.
The beautiful beaches of Phuket and the warm waters of the Andaman Sea are welcome reward at our journey’s end!

We ride approximately 500 km (a number of rides are optional) mostly on tarmac roads in reasonable repair. Some of the optional rides are off-road and will challenge inexperienced riders.
