Our Cycle Northern Thailand tour allows you to immerse yourself in the rural life and scenic countryside of Northern Thailand, as well as exploring some of the main historical sights and the region known as the Golden Triangle. We cycle along scenic roads, which take us alongside rice paddies and orchards, past teak forests and amongst hill tribe villages where we can observe the simple traditional lifestyle of the tribal people. We begin in Chiang Rai in the northernmost province of Thailand, and head out to the Golden Triangle, the famed border where Thailand, Laos and Myanmar meet. We see the teak buildings of the 18th century Chiang Do Town, founded as a place of exile for people suspected of being possessed by evil spirits, and then cycle trough the valleys of the Mae Rim Mountains to Chiang Mai, the “Flower of the North”. On to Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Siam and now UNESCO site, and on via the hot springs of San Khamphaeng with time to immerse in the mineral waters, to Kanchanaburi with its famed Bridge over the River Kwai and Hell Fire Pass. Finally we end our adventure in Bangkok, with a relaxing Traditional Thai massage to soothe any aching muscles!
