In Brief |
|
Our journey begins in Bangkok with a part day cycle tour through the cities vibrant, bustling streets and alongside canals to see the famous Bangkok landmarks but skillfully avoiding the traffic! From Bangkok we fly to Chaing Mai for a half day cycle tour during which you can visit the fascinating temples of Thailand' s second city, a taste of the cycling to come.
After a short transfer some 50 miles NW of Chaing Mai the main part of our 5 day, 230 mile (370 km) ride commences. Towering mountain ranges, tropical forests and raging waterfalls are among the spectacular sights that you will experience in this land of wild and scenic beauty. As we travel to Mae Hong Son on the Myanmar (Burmese) border, you will have the opportunity to meet the people of the many hill tribes in the region, bathe in hot springs and descend deep into spectacular caves and view several beautiful waterfalls on short treks into the tropical forest. Along the way adventure is the key, with many must-see sights and some hidden places that few have been privileged to see.
After completion of the ride an internal flight will transfer us back to Bangkok were there will be a final opportunities to sightsee and shop.
