Tours - Special Tours

Off Road Survey Tour North Thailand

Ready to push beyond your perceived adventure threshold? Prepared to rough it a little to experience the true lifestyle of living in the mountain jungles of Northern Thailand? Want to break away from the confines of a tour but need the experience of a local? Happy to ride without a strict schedule or itinerary? Not worried about getting dirty?

The epitome of our unique touring style this tour utilises our local route knowledge and our Thai and hill tribe language to the full. This tour is actually one of the most carefully planned tours in our tour line up which may seem strange seeing as the itinerary is almost non existent! Serious adventurer seekers only please!

We have planned this 9 day 8 night motorcycle adventure holiday by carefully balancing the true lifestyles of back to basics jungle living with the joys of motorbiking in many regions where GPS maps or even paper maps do not exist however, this is the most adventurous tour we have ever offered and we require 3 survey groups to finalise the tour itinerary and routes.

Getting away from main highways and city life and entering the world of off road ranging from easy to almost impossible routes even for our own team often on single track buffalo trails where we need to litterally cut our way through the jungle to reach other trails.

Up for the challenge? Limited to only 5 riders and we are not looking for champion enduro riders! If you have good manoeuvrable skills on a bike especially at dead slow speeds (off road experienced not necessary) and prepared to ride 6 days with a possibility of never finding a guest house, hotel. 7 - 11 or any other tourist we would like to hear from you!

Note on Accommodation: On the days when we are deep in the mountains you may be expected to share with other members of the group! Where quality accommodation is arranged on this tour (Chiang Mai and some days on the riding section) we have provided private rooms (no sharing)

Itinerary

Day 1 Meet and Greet

Arrive Chiang Mai city where you will be met by our team and transported to your private hotel room close to the main city center. This evening is about getting to know each other and we will do this with some great food in one of the cities best restaurants.

Day 2: Safety, tour planning and time to relax

In the morning we will have a group session explaining the full intricacies of this tour and of course our safety briefing. Once this is completed you will have the day to relax and do as you please while our team prepare the bikes for the following morning.

Day 3: Ride to our first base center

Due to the trails we will be riding the majority of the time our support truck will not be able to follow the group so this tour we have 3 base centers where our support vehicle will be operating from. The first base center is a small but busy location offering all the utilities we require. Today's ride includes some wicked road riding giving you a sample of why Thailand is rated as a top biking destination. Ride today around 6 hours.

Day 4: Into the Jungle (Dual Terrain)

We ease our way slowly into the jungle regions climbing into the mountains and away from mainstream population and today we will be utilising the services, back up and help from the Meo hill tribe people. Note: 50%-60% of today will be off road riding though not too difficult.

Day 5: Off Road

Continuing off road: Expected to be 100% off road riding without seeing any main roads or highways. We expect to be utilising the services of the hill tribe people as far as shelter this evening.

Day 6: Off Road

Continuing off road: Expected to be 100% off road riding without seeing any main roads or highways. Guests of the hill tibe people again this evening.

Day 7: Riding (Dual Terrain)

Dual terrain: Expected to be mostly off road though we will be making it to our second base center to enjoy the luxury of modern conveniences such as cotton bed sheets and flushing toilets.

Day 8: Dual Terrain

Long trip ahead of us today so a very early morning start heading back into the mountains for a Dual terrain ride back into Chiang Mai. Expected distance 300 Kilometers (8 hours). We plan on arriving back into Chiang Mai city where we have arranged a farewell dinner and night on the town.
