Thailand is perhaps the most popular tourist destination in Asia. Cycle touring this country allows you to uncover by far more aspects than mass tourism would ever reveal.

 

What is Thailand about?

 

• As the land of smiles, the Thais are among the kindest and most welcoming people we ever met

• The cultural heritage & spiritualty of the people

• Thai food

 

What surprises you:

 

• That Thailand is not all about sex tourism (in fact the sex industry is concentrated to a few cities)

• That Thailand’s cities are very advanced, even though many remnants of the 3rd world remain

 

The pros for a cycle tourist:

 

• English is a rather commonly practiced language, even in the country side

• Thousands of little and empty roads & most main roads have a security line

• Great value (that’s why it’s a popular tourist destination)

• Provisions available literally everywhere

 

The challenges:

 

• The climate and heat

• In some bigger cities traffic and dangerous drivers (can be avoided)
