Itinerary

Day 1 | 1st Stage: Phuket – Phang Nga

Afternoon boat trip to Phang Nga Bay
In the morning our journey begins at Siam Bike Tours Shop in Choeng Thale / Laguna. We take care of your luggage and load it on the van. After the bike fitting and the tour information, we start the first stage. We cross Sarasin Bridge and reach the mainland after 30 km. We continue cycling on a beautiful back road and enjoy the great view of Phang Nga Bay at the Samet Nangshe viewpoint. The road to Phang Nga leads us through a varied, tropical landscape. Later in the afternoon, we explore the nearby Phang Nga Bay on a boat tour. With its protected mangroves and countless limestone islands, the bay has become world-famous. Of course, the “James Bond Island” with its striking and much-photographed needle rock should not be missing on the excursion.

Day 2 | 2nd Stage: Phang Nga – Ao Nang Beach / Krabi
108 km | wavy | B, L incl.
A short pass road meanders across the dense jungle. On the exhilarating descent through the forest, we reach Thap Put where we take a coffee break. We continue through plantations past many limestone mountains to Ao Nang Beach in Krabi.

Day 3 | 3rd Stage: Ao Nang Beach / Krabi – Koh Lanta Island
102 km | flat to wavy | B, L incl.
We cycle south to Koh Lanta Island with its beautiful sandy beaches and beach resorts.
We take the 20-minute ferry trip to the island. Koh Lanta Yai and Koh Lanta Noi are connected by a bridge.

Day 4 | Koh Lanta
Rest Day at Koh Lanta Beach

The day of rest offers an opportunity to sleep in, relax, and enjoy the hotel pool or the white sandy beach. We appreciate the beautiful hotel complex and treat ourselves to a massage.

Day 5 | 4th Stage: Koh Lanta Island – Thung Song
125 km | wavy | B, L incl.
We leave the island of Koh Lanta and head east inland. We cross the Malay Peninsula on beautifully winding country roads with a few shorter climbs to Thung Song.

Day 6 | 5th Stage: Thung Song – Nakhon Si Tammarat
79 km | flat to wavy | B, L incl.
On today’s short stage we ride to Nakhon Si Tammarat. This is a large province on the Malay Peninsula in southern Thailand, stretching from a mountainous interior to the coast of the Gulf of Thailand. The sprawling Buddhist Wat Phra Mahathat temple with its huge bell-shaped stupa is one of the many ancient and religious sites in the capital, Nakhon Si Thammarat.

Day 7 | 6th Stage: Nakhon Si Tammarat – Khanom
103 km | flat to wavy | B, L incl.
Today we are cycling along many deserted side roads by the coast through rubber and oil palm forests. For the final part, we ride on the fascinating Coastal Road, which has many great viewpoints. Khanom is known for its long white sand beach on the Gulf of Thailand – the perfect place to relax and swim.

Day 8 | Rest Day at Khanom Beach

The rest day offers the opportunity to sleep in, relax and bathe on the white sandy beach. The beautiful and remote back roads tempt you to take another voluntary cycle tour.

Shortly after Surat Thani, we turn towards Khao Sok National Park. The rubber and oil palm forests are characteristic of this fertile area. The construction of the Ratchaprapha Dam in 1987 created a huge, rugged lake. After a refreshing swim in the hotel’s large pool, there is the opportunity to marvel at the unique limestone peaks of the Khao Sok National Park on the reservoir during a boat trip

After a brief descent, we visit an elephant camp and then continue on to a golf course, where we enjoy lunch. In Khao Lak, the coast of the Indian Ocean is already awaiting us. Our resort is located directly on the beautiful Nangthong Beach. The free afternoon offers the opportunity to swim and relax by the pool or on the beach.

Day 12 | 10th Stage: Khao Lak – Phuket
94 km | flat | B, L incl.
We follow the main road and after 33 km we turn onto an idyllic side road. We treat ourselves to our coffee break in Thai Muang.
