“I loved this trip! Our guides made a big effort to help us understand the culture of the area through which we bicycled. Both the guides and drivers were exceptional with their sensitivity to our needs. The area of Thailand we rode through was beautiful and and varied. For westerners concerned about not finding western style "necessaries", never fear! They were available everywhere!”
“Thailand is a magical place with proud, generous and happy people. The tour took us through major cities and small towns. We stayed at great hotels and ate fantastic food from street vendors to Michelin rated restaurants! The tour offered us the option of spending a half day caring for elephants and white water raftings.”
“We biked from Bangkok to Chiang Rai in April/May 2019 with Art of Bicycle. The guide (Noom AlphaGo) and the support vehicle driver Prasertsak Duanchai (Sunni) were awesome. They anticipated needs and ensured that the trip ran very smoothly. The trip was guaranteed with only two participants (and there were only two of us) so it was like a private tour. Equipment was excellent and they carried an extra bike "just in case" which we appreciated. The one (slightly) negative observation - the hotels selected seemed to be away from the city centres so it was difficult to walk around the city centres at night or early AM. The operator seemed to want to offer hotels with swimming pools - which meant hotels with enough land on which to build swimming pools which meant hotels away from downtown. Some would say after a long day of biking that swimming pools are great but I prefer to be closer to the historical centre of a town. Restaurant and hotels at 3-4 star level mostly, but (they say) the best in the smaller towns we biked through. Can't say enough good things about the two guides and their attention to detail!! I will definitely book more trips with Art of the Bicycle!!”
