We meet at our tour hotel in the early afternoon and set out for a warm-up ride around Chiang Rai. Our main stop is the city’s most iconic landmark, the White Temple, known for its striking fusion of Buddhist architecture and surreal modern art, symbolizing the Buddha’s teachings in a contemporary context. After taking in the temple’s intricate details, we’ll loop back to our hotel and reconvene in the evening for a stroll through Chiang Rai’s lively Night Bazaar followed by a welcome dinner. Please let us know if you require assistance with airport transfers and pre-tour hotel bookings.

-237mWe manoeuvre out of Chiang Rai, riding on a provincial throughway until, after around 45 km, we branch onto a secondary road that takes us into the remote highlands of Wa Wi. Our first leg-testing climb rewards us with views of the Mae Suai Reservoir. Following a brisk descent, the ride turns into an undulating journey through a lush valley of jungles, farmlands, hill tribe villages, and endless mountain vistas. Around the 84-km mark, we meet the day's main challenge: a winding 15-km climb to the top of a pass located at an elevation of just over 1,000 metres above sea level. It’s not a continuous grind, however; a few relieving dips, flat stretches, and, of course, stunning views make it a thoroughly enjoyable challenge. We’ll take a breather at a viewpoint at the top of the pass and then embark on a 10-km downhill into the valley of the Mae Kok River, riding on the plains to our riverside resort, where peaceful gardens and a refreshing pool await.

Ride 125km+1592m-1528mToday’s ride takes us to the captivating Golden Triangle, nestled in the far northeast of Chiang Rai Province, where the borders of Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos converge at the majestic confluence of the Mekong River. We’ll have our work cut out for us to get there! Starting eastward for 20 km along the main provincial road, we ride through rolling, farm-covered hills, some crowned by Buddhist stupas. From here, a series of climbs leads us into the slopes of the Mae Salong mountains, famed for tea plantations and a Chinese heritage. Two particularly challenging 5-km ascents bring us into double-digit gradients, but each pass rewards us with sweeping views and refreshing descents. By the 50-km mark, the climbs are behind us, and the second half of the ride leads through the fertile rice-growing region of eastern Chiang Rai Province to the riverside town of Chiang Saen, the gateway to the Golden Triangle. The final part of the journey has us skirting alongside Chiang Saen’s crumbling ancient fortification walls before we saddle off at our lovely hotel on the Mekong – perfect for a sunset toast to today’s feat!
Siam Triangle HotelBreakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Ride 113km+1311m-1398mAfter a full-throttle start to the tour and with more tough climbs ahead, today’s ride allows us to take it easy as we follow the winding course of the Mekong River through the expansive rice basin of eastern Chiang Rai Province. The fertile, silt-rich land along the Mekong presents a vibrant patchwork of greens as we ride through endless agricultural fields and the communities that cultivate them. We pass fruit orchards, paddy fields, and banana plantations, alongside more developed areas in this thriving commercial region. Just across the river lies Laos. While the road doesn’t always offer views of the Mekong, there are standout sections where we can fully appreciate the landscape’s grandeur. And although the route is generally flat, expect some undulations and one very short but steep climb to the top of a ridge. We’ll conclude our ride in the small border town of Chiang Khong, arriving in time for lunch. You’ll have the afternoon free to relax at our riverside hotel and stroll along the boardwalk.
Chiangkhong Teak Garden Riverfront HotelBreakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Ride 67km+363m-374mGet ready for one of the tour’s major climbing feats and a real badge of honour for road cyclists in Thailand: the Phu Chi Fah ascent. We kick off with a warm-up, traversing 50 km along the plains of the Mekong River and through a valley nestled between two mountain ridges. Once we merge onto a winding highland road, the serious climbing begins. The first, and most demanding, ascent spans nearly 800 metres over 5 km of continuous uphill. After a well-deserved break at a viewpoint, we encounter undulations along a ridge at 1,200 m above sea level where patchwork fields are carved into the mountainsides, including crops like cabbage, corn, strawberries, and lychees. Our journey culminates at the summit of Phu Chi Fah, a favourite retreat for Thais seeking cool weather and sweeping panoramas of the mountains and valleys of neighbouring Laos. Tonight, we’ll stay at a cosy, basic Thai-style hotel consisting of bungalows, where you can enjoy the crisp and cool mountain air as a reward for today’s impressive achievement.
Ukrist Farm Hill ResortBreakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Ride 86km+1652m-788mIf you want to catch one of Thailand’s most epic sunrises, get up early and head to the Phu Chi Fah Viewpoint, accessible via a short drive and hike. From a steep cliff, you’ll watch as the sun illuminates mist-filled valleys and the jungle-covered peaks of Laos beyond. It’s all weather-dependent, of course, and our guide will discuss options with you the night before! Either way, after breakfast, we saddle-up and begin our descent back into the plains. The first 20 km is a continuation of the same undulating ridge from the previous day, but then it’s all downhill along a twisty road enveloped by waves of lush jungle foliage. It can get steep, so we take it slow and regroup at the mountain’s base (around 35 km). From here, it’s a long, mostly flat ride through the rice-growing basin of Phayao Province. This developed agricultural region includes some busier stretches along wide provincial roads, but we’ll stick to quieter secondary routes as much as possible. We end in the provincial capital of Phayao which sits on the shores of a large, scenic lake framed by mountains.
M2 Hotel WatersideBreakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Ride 136km+445m-1265mWe begin today’s route with a lovely ride along the shores of Lake Phayao. Vital to the region’s ecology and economy, keep your eyes peeled for birdlife and fishing boats as we skirt the edges of this vibrant wetland. After around 10 km, we veer away from the lake and follow rural roads into the foothills of the imposing Doi Luang Mountain. Then, it’s time to tackle our first pass of the day! Following a meandering road through the southern part of Doi Luang National Park, we climb approximately 12 km to a scenic viewpoint before descending into the Wang River Valley. The gradients range between 2-6% on both the up and downhills. Next, we traverse the rice-covered valley floor along an undulating provincial road before a final and steeper pass brings us into the Pa Pao Valley, where we conclude our ride. Tonight’s hotel may be basic, but its location beside a Buddhist temple and school provides us with an immersive experience in the rustic countryside of northern Thailand.
Me Vadsana Hotel Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Ride 73km+1103m-909mWe begin today’s route with a 20 km ride north through the Pa Pao Valley, easing into the day before a twisty, steep 5 km climb provides the first real test for our legs. A brief but rewarding downhill then transitions us to our next challenge – a 15 km gradual ascent into the eastern fringes of Chiang Mai Province along a winding highland road bordered by dense forests. At the top of the pass, we catch a breather, then enjoy a nearly 20 km freewheeling descent into the Phrao Valley, a wide, low-lying agricultural area encircled on all sides by the lush mountains of Sri Lanna National Park. We follow the valley south on a flat road for around 30 km before a final short climb brings us to higher elevations again, concluding our ride at Bua Tong Waterfall. Known as the “sticky waterfall” for its unique grippy limestone surface, we’ll take time to explore and cool down before transferring around an hour to our riverside hotel in Chiang Mai.
Aruntara Riverside Boutique HotelBreakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Ride 117km+1520m-1597mWe end our adventure by cycling the Samoeng Loop, one of Chiang Mai’s most iconic road cycling routes, celebrated for its serene, winding roads flanked by lush jungle foliage. After a brief 30-minute transfer from the hotel to our starting point, we set out through the forested foothills of Doi Suthep-Pui National Park. Our ride begins with a gentle 15 km stretch, gradually warming us up before we tackle a series of twisty climbs that lead us to the Samoeng viewpoint, perched at around 1,100 metres above sea level. After a well-deserved break to soak in the stunning vistas, we descend into the Mae Sa River Valley, passing through vibrant forests and agricultural fields, with the possibility of spotting elephants at one of the camps lining the road! We then have a few km along the main road before ending our ride at the Huay Tueng Thao Reservoir. This is a favourite recreation spot for Chiang Mai locals, featuring a large lake surrounded by forests and traffic-free roads. Keep your eyes out for some large and whimsical straw statues! From here we transfer back to the hotel and in the evening reconvene for our celebratory farewell dinner.

We ride a total of 834 km over 9 cycling days, with a total elevation gain of 9635 metres. The journey takes us along well-paved roads, ensuring a smooth ride as we explore northern Thailand’s diverse landscapes — from remote highlands and fertile valleys to the Mekong River plains and rugged mountaintops. Most days feature leg-testing climbs of various types: gradual low-gradient rises, short steep bursts, and longer ascents that can reach double-digit gradients. The descents are equally thrilling, and the views are worth every effort! Heavy climbing days are balanced by gentler ones (see Days 4 and 6) but good stamina is required to comfortably handle back-to-back rides with no full rest day. Riding through this culturally vibrant region offers plenty of opportunities to immerse yourself in local life. Accommodations include well-appointed and character-rich hotels for elevated comfort in places like Chiang Rai, Tha Thon, Chiang Saen, Chiang Khong, Phayao, and Chiang Mai, as well as basic but cosy options in more remote areas like Phu Chi Fah and Wiang Pa Pao.
The trip is fully supported, and your guide’s expert knowledge of the area and terrain means that you always know what is coming up in terms of distance and difficulty. This makes a tremendous difference, as does the constant supply of water and refreshments along the way.
Suitability: This is an intermediary to advanced level road biking challenge. Stamina is required for back-to-back riding days, including four days with over 100 km covered. Strength is required to handle a variety of climbing conditions, from gradual at 5-7 % gradients to shorter bursts that can get into double digits. On average, you should be comfortable with gaining 1,000 - 1,500 metres of elevation per day. Good handling skills are key to safely navigating steep downhills with sharp turns. Less experienced riders are welcome but should prepare themselves in advance to manage the long distances and consistent climbs at a reasonable pace. The support vehicle is always nearby to offer refuge to any weary cyclists.
Biking Conditions: The majority of the route is paved with smooth asphalt, making it ideal for road biking. While there may be occasional rough patches with debris or potholes, these are few and far between. Traffic is typically light, especially in remote areas, but you should still expect to share the road with trucks, cars, and motorbikes. Near towns and cities, traffic tends to be heavier. While we try to stick to quiet secondary and rural roads as much as possible, there are times that we need to ride on the shoulders of busier main roads, either because it is unavoidable or to keep distances manageable. Although we’ve scheduled our departures to avoid the wettest times of the year, rainfall can occur at any time. We generally ride rain or shine, but based on the guide’s discretion or your comfort level, modifications to the planned route can be made. Additionally, from March through April, northern Thailand experiences its annual burning season, when smoke from agricultural field clearings causes smog. While we avoid this period entirely, the exact start date varies each year, and some early burnings may occur in February, impacting air quality on parts of the route.
We meet at our tour hotel in the early afternoon and set out for a warm-up ride around Chiang Rai. Our main stop is the city’s most iconic landmark, the White Temple, known for its striking fusion of Buddhist architecture and surreal modern art, symbolizing the Buddha’s teachings in a contemporary context.

Our listed hotels are always accurate at the time of writing, but should we have to change any hotel, it will always be for a similar or better one.
Because some people can't imagine going on a trip without their own beloved bicycle, we do not provide them as part of this tour. However, you can hire bikes locally for the price listed in the tour pricing section.
If you bring your own bike, please make sure it is a road bike in good mechanical order.
Basic spares and tools are carried by the guide and on the support vehicle, though we cannot guarantee having spares for every conceivable problem. Carrying a basic tool kit, a spare tube and a pump while riding is recommended.
Wearing a helmet is required on all our biking adventures and is non negotiable. If you do not wear a helmet you will not be allowed to cycle. Your tour leader is trained in first aid and emergency rescue, but to a large degree you must be responsible for your own safety while riding. It is therefore compulsory that you take out travel insurance that will cover you for a mountain biking tour.
You will be led by a local English-speaking guide and if the group is 9 people or more we will add another guide to the tour. All our guides are well informed in the history, culture and religions of the area where you are biking and are skilled at passing that knowledge on to you. Your guide is also medically trained and an experienced cyclist, able to handle most minor repairs en route.
Important Update: As of May 01, 2025 all non-Thai nationals entering Thailand by air, land, or sea must complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) online before arrival. Please fill out the details on the official website here within three (3) days before your arrival in Thailand. This is a free process - beware of fake websites that charge a fee. If you are already travelling within the three days before your planned arrival in Thailand, then we suggest completing the form while you are at a hotel with reliable Wi-Fi. It only takes a few minutes.
We recommend that you visit a travel medical doctor and ask about the following vaccinations: typhoid, polio, tetanus and hepatitis A. A certificate for Yellow Fever is required when arriving from an infected area within six days.
Thailand generally has a tropical climate with fairly high humidity. The North and Central region have a tropical climate with fairly high humidity. Northeast Thailand has a humid hot and dry weather alternatively with medium rain while the coastal areas of the east is humid and hot with intermittent rain. The South of Thailand has a tropical climate with fairly high humidity.
There are three seasons: from March to June it is hot and dry, with temperatures between 27˚C/80 F and 40˚C/104 F, with night temperatures in the 20s. The rainy season is from July to October, but temperatures are slightly lower, because of the effect of the rain. During this time it will not rain continuously, but in sharp bursts, and the sun can come out quickly. The cooler season is from October to February, with average temperatures between 20˚C/68 F and 30˚C/86 F.
Meals are included as per the itinerary where B = breakfast, L = lunch, D = dinner. Most meals are local and feature noodles, rice, curries, and soups. Any special dietary requirements can also be catered for as well. Please let us know at the time of booking.
Keeping you completely hydrated is a job we take very seriously. Cold water, some energy-restoring local fruit, and soft drinks are included in the tour price while riding.

If you prefer not to share a single supplement is payable to guarantee your own room. The cost of the single supplement is listed above.
We recommend that you tuck away a few extra dollars, perhaps US$20 per day, for incidentals.
The Thai currency is the baht. ATMs, which are abundant, are the easiest ways to get Thai baht. Have a supply of US dollars in cash on hand, just in case your card doesn’t work. Banks or the rarer private moneychangers offer the best foreign-exchange rates. Credit cards are accepted in big cities and resort hotels but you’ll need baht for family-run guesthouses or restaurants.
