Our most popular Motorbike tour by far though the use of the word "tour" hardly seems fitting!  Described by past customers as "more like an expedition than a tour" this is the epitome of our motorcycle touring style and for those with minimal off road riding experience we also include off road riding tuition along the way (please see note at bottom page).

This is a multi terrain motorcycle tour meaning you will be riding smooth tarmac, compact clay, dust, dry river beds, multiple river crossings, single track buffalo trails, with steep ascents and descents within an 14,000 Square kilometer region of one of Thailand's densest jungles and one of the least populated regions in Thailand very close to the Burmese border.  At no point within this tour will you be subjected to manufactured tourism of any kind,  in fact the chances of ever meeting another tourist when riding is virtually nil!  This is true adventure tourism concentrating on the ride, and the locale rather than the destination but most importantly you do not need to be an off road motorbike superstar!

As we said you do not need to be experienced off road though you do need to be very comfortable on a bike. Most importantly you must come with the spirit of off road biking meaning you will be required to pitch in and help out your fellow riders when required and able take the rough with the smooth!  This is true off road biking on trails used only by farmers and hill tribe people in very remote regions! 

The majority of the time we will stay each evening in small villages with very little tourist infrastructure meaning high quality hotels are simply not available and if they were they probably wont lets us in as we can guarantee you will be turning up very dirty indeed.  Saying that you will not be subjected to poor accommodation!  We will be using small family run guest houses and resorts and for those that want to get more adventurous on the trails we are able to arrange jungle accommodation within Thai government/Army run forestry lodges or refugee NGO stations.

Because we judge each route by the ability of the riders we need to ensure that each group has riders of the same ability therefore we will never place experienced off road riders with novice riders!   This tour is also available as a private touring option especially suitable for those that want one on one off road training along the route!
