About LocalRoutes
Cycling tours in Asia, designed differently
LocalRoutes designs custom cycling tours in Asia for travelers seeking the roads less pedaled, offering experiences far removed from mass tourism. We create both guided and self-guided bike tours, built around quiet roads, local encounters, and a more immersive way of traveling.
Our idea is simple: slow down, ride further, and see a side of Asia most people miss.
Our philosophy
We believe the best travel experiences don’t come from rushing between highlights.
Instead, they happen naturally: on the road between two places, during an unexpected stop in a small village, or simply from the feeling of moving entirely at your own pace.
Our cycling tours are designed around that rhythm, to create real connection.
What makes our bike tours in Asia different
We don’t follow standard routes or mass-tour itineraries. We focus on:
-
Carefully designed cycling routes across Asia, prioritizing quiet and scenic roads
-
Real local immersion, not staged experiences
-
Flexibility, especially for self-guided cycling tours
-
The perfect balance of independence and expert local support
Every tour is built from time spent exploring on the ground.
