Responsible Travel

Our aim is to offer guided, small group motorbike adventure tours for motorcyclists looking to discover the 'Real Thailand', away from the traditional 'package tour group' trails and, overdeveloped locations. On our Motorbike tours we stay in small, family-run hotels and guesthouses, eat in local restaurants and use local transport as much as possible. In addition all local guides and agencies used are considered friends rather than 'business contacts'. The idea being that you will visit as guests rather than as tourists.

What They Said

I managed to find myself neck high in the river without my motorbike between my legs.  I bore the brunt of a few quips from the boys because of that but had a fantastic time.  The routes we took were way off the beaten track and the other guys in the group were a joy to ride with.  Hope to be back again for another tour.  Thanks Andy for a great time!
