Your journey begins mid-morning at your hotel in Bangkok. We give you a general briefing on do's and don'ts, what if's and safety on the road, we introduce you to your equipment and to our navigation app, and set you off for a trip to remember! You will stop en-route for a nice lunch break or decide to have a lunch late at your destination by the beach. And off you go for a first, short ride through the coastal town of Pranburi towards Sam Roi Yot, your accommodation for the day. Relax and enjoy, this trip is off to a great start!

You hit the road right after breakfast and head towards Sam Roi Yot National Park (300 peaks), filled with spectacular limestone formations and stunning marshes covered with lotus flowers. You soon stop by the beach and take a boat to visit the majestic Phraya Nakhon cave and the incredible temple it houses. Back to your bikes, you keep riding towards Ao Noi temple. After a well-deserved break, you head again towards the laid-back town of Prachuap Khiri Khan. You may climb up Khao Chong Krachok or Monkey Mountain to admire both the view from and the temple hosting Buddha's footprint at the top.

After a great breakfast overlooking the sea, watching fishermen boats head back to shore, you get going on your bikes away from the main tourist areas and alternate between pleasant beach side stretches and winding roads through never-ending coconut plantations. A slow paced, contemplative ride just to be lived... You head to your resort for the day along a serene beach. At sunset, you should not miss the visit of Wat Tang Sai hillside temple overlooking the beach. One of the most beautiful temples in Thailand!

You start the day with an amazing road stretch, right under the coconut trees, watching the sun rise. You ride along the Royal Coast Road, and soon coconut trees give way to pine trees, making for an interesting change of atmosphere. The shade is pleasant as you keep going with the sea to your left and farmland to your right.

Along the way, we stop to visit the secluded and little-known temple of Wat Khao Tham Ma Rong. Leaving the bikes at the foot of a hill, we walk up to discover a magnificent cave filled with dozens of Buddhas—and home to a colony of friendly bats.

The way left in the afternoon is relatively short and partially shaded. You may stop by red cliffs, and finally head towards your seaside hotel for a nice dip in the pool!

Today you leave the Royal Coast Road for a little while to take the (dirt) road less travelled. You pedal through rubber tree and palm forests on some of the quietest roads until reaching the Kaeo Prasert Temple where you can enjoy breath-taking views of the surrounding peaks. From there you keep riding until the quiet fishing village of Ao Thungmaha, and then on hilly roads to reach your seaside lunch spot and once again indulge in delicious local specialties. The rest of your ride is on quiet roads through the countryside, until reaching your charming riverside resort for the night.

You leave Chumphon behind today and start the second part of this journey. A section that is even more remote, authentic, and where cyclists are likely the only foreigners... Between coconut sugar production workshops, temples, and those always charming fishing villages, you'll continue to be amazed by the sights. Tonight, you'll stay in a small, quiet yet lively provincial town, perfect for an evening stroll.

A good coffee, and off you go through the lively morning market! You cross the river branch to take small roads, then follow the coast here and there. The path is peaceful, and you get to enjoy one last day of sea air. Before or after arriving at Cape Laem Sai, you can visit traditional silk weaving workshops. It's amazing to see that the same techniques are still being used after centuries of practice! You'll be staying right by the sea once again.

Today, you head out on small roads and venture inland. You'll quickly realize the coast is behind you as you notice the elevation. You are deep in rural Thailand, where tourists rarely venture. Don't hesitate to greet them with your best "wai". Tonight, you'll be staying by the river, in the stunning Khao Sok region, famous for its many towering peaks. If your arrival time allows, we will take you for a private boat ride on the magnificent Khao Sok lake. Magical moment guaranteed!

For your last day of cycling, you leave your hotel and head straight onto small roads, passing through rubber plantations, until you reach a local spring with crystal-clear water. Take a refreshing dip, and then head towards the beautiful temple perched on Dharma Hill, which offers a 360-degree view of the surrounding countryside. You keep riding afterwards to the little-known temple of Wat Tham Prasat Nalakiring, from where you'll finally transfer to the pier and then to the islands!
