TRIP ITINERARY

REVIEWS

On this 850 kilometre road ride you’ll cycle on smooth tarmac through quaint little villages, pass Buddhist temples and waving children as you absorb the slower pace of life of the relaxed and friendly locals.

Our cycling starts just outside Bangkok and ends on the beach in Phuket. In between we ride along some spectacular coastline scenery and are awed by the spectacular limestone cliffs jutting vertically out of the landscape. Crossing the Isthmus of Kra will prove to be hilly but offer up great scenery as a reward. We overnight at a hot spring resort and continue down Thailand’s west coast to the rugged beauty of Khao Lak before crossing the bridge to the island of Phuket.

We overnight at beautiful resorts where you can take a refreshing dip in the pool before indulging in some fresh off-the-boat seafood. Varied riding, spectacular coastline scenery, statuesque peaks and the warm and hospitable Thai culture will be among the many highlights of this adventure.

Day 1: Petchaburi - Hua Hin

We meet at a Bangkok hotel before we transfer to the start of our ride in Petchaburi (approximately 2 hours). This ride is a gentle start to the trip as we head out of Petchaburi and into rural Thailand, along roads flanked by paddy fields and palm trees. We then ride along the beach into Cha-am and on to the beach resort town of Hua Hin. The town is closely tied to Thai royalty and the king currently resides at the summer palace located just outside town. The last 20 km is on a main road but there is a wide shoulder to ride on and if the traffic proves to be too heavy this section can be transferred. We’ll top off our day with a seafood dinner on a pier in the center of town.

Lodging	Putahracsa
Description	Putahracsa Hua Hin allows guests to combine the charms of small town leisure together with a beach hideaway.

Day 2: Hua Hin - Prachuap Khiri Kha

We head out of Hua Hin, towards Sam Roi Yot (300 hundred peaks) national park. This park has spectacular limestone formations and freshwater marshes in between the peaks. We ride on quiet back roads alongside beaches with many the peaks as our background. After the park we have a short ride on the main road, about 20 km, before heading back to the coast, passing many small villages on the way. The final section is along the beach to Prachuap Khiri Khan. The selected hotel has some great views and as the town is well known for having some of the finest seafood in Thailand, we’ll feast on the local specialties at dinner.

Lodging	Hadthong Hotel
Description	HADTHONG HOTEL,the first class international hotel in Prachuap Khiri Khan provides you for all comforts and facilities. The hotel is located in prime location which offers a panoramic view on the famous Gulf of Thailand.

Day 3: Prachuap Khiri Khan – Ban Krut

We leave the hotel and ride along the beach front road for about 12 km before hitting the main road. This section is 45 km with the option to transfer if preferred. We are now well away from the main tourist areas and the roads are quiet and in good condition. We head towards a serene beach and our nature-friendly boutique resort. Time to relax in a hammock and listen to the surf.

Lodging	Keeree Waree Seaside Villa & Spa
Description	Keeree Waree Seaside Villa & Spa, a nature-friendly boutique resort on golden-sanded Bankrut beach, near Hua Hin and Pranburi. Ideal for a break on the way to Koh Tao, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan’s full-moon party or Koh Krabi and Phuket.

Day 4: Ban Krut – Rest Da

This is a rest day – you’ve earned it. Spend it relaxing at the beach, wandering around the fishing village of Ban Krut or take a dip in one of the two salt water pools at the resort.

Lodging	Keeree Waree Seaside Villa & Spa
Description	Keeree Waree Seaside Villa & Spa, a nature-friendly boutique resort on golden-sanded Bankrut beach, near Hua Hin and Pranburi. Ideal for a break on the way to Koh Tao, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan’s full-moon party or Koh Krabi and Phuket.

Day 5: Ban Krut - Chumpo

With rested legs it’s time to do some serious kilometers. Today we ride 118 kilometers on quiet side roads with very little traffic. Our route sticks to the coast today giving us views of the sea to the left and rugged mountains on our right. We are passing through Thailand’s narrowest part as the border with Burma is less than 20 km away at some points. We end the ride just north of Chumpon, at another secluded and quiet beach.

Lodging	Chumphon Cabana & Diving Resort
Description	Make your dream reality at Chumphon Cabana & Diving Resort a lovely hotel in Chumpon. The Cabana overlooks mountains and green on one side, and the blue of sea on the other.

Day 6: Chumpon - Ranong

Today we cross the Isthmus of Kra, which separates the Gulf of Thailand from the Adaman Sea and is just 44 km wide at it narrowest point. We head west for about 60 km on an undulating road that cuts through the lush jungle clad mountains that surround this area. The hills and the twists and turns in the road make for some varied riding. There is a climb of about 3 km starting at the Pun Ya Ban waterfall and then it is downhill and flat all the way to Ranong. This is a spa town and the hotel has a hot mineral spring pool to sooth those aching muscles.

Lodging

Tinidee Hotel

Description

Tinidee Hotel@Ranong, is situated in the commercial district of the city of Ranong, southwest Thailand. Close to attractions such as Laemson National Park, Nai Khai Ranong, and Victoria Point in Myanmar, the hotel is just 30 min drive from Ranong Airport, and a one-hour flight from Bangkok. Beautiful Ranong, on the west coast of southern Thailand, is famous for its health giving hot spring and natural mineral water.

Day 7: Ranong – Khuraburi

We ride through valleys today so the road will be rolling, but there are no extreme climbs, just enough ascents and descents to make the ride interesting. We’ll pass many villages and children waving and yelling out farang, farang (foreigner). After some great views the ride ends in a lovely little resort nestled in a valley and surrounded by lush tropical rainforest.

Lodging	Kuraburi Greenview Resort
Description	At Kuraburi Green view Resort; all rooms were built with the natural environment. Designed in a rustic style with wood floors and stone walls yet furnished comfortably to allow guest to relax while in touch with nature

Day 8: Khuraburi - Khao Lak

We continue our journey south, riding from valley to valley towards picturesque Khao Lak. The road flattens out a bit as we reach Takua Pa, which is a former Portuguese settlement. The region was an important tin-dredging center in the first half of the 20th century, but there remains little evidence of the mining as rubber plantations have covered the dredged land. We next ride through one of the worst areas devastated by the 2004 Tsunami. You’ll be amazed to see how quickly this area has bounced back and rebuilt. There is a small climb to our hotel which is right on the beach and set next to a small national park

Lodging	Baan Khaolak Resort
Description	Baan Khaolak Resort, your home away from home by the Andaman Sea, invites you to experience a new paradise where the skyline meets the endless sea…. unbeatable beauty which only nature can offer.

Day 9: Khao Lak - Phuket

The last leg of the tour is to the tropical paradise of Phuket island, Thailand’s largest island. There are a couple of small hills to conquer before we leave Khao Lak, but then it’s flat all the way down to Phang Nga and Phuket. This road is in excellent condition and you’ll make good time towards our resort on Surin beach. Phuket is connected by a bridge to the mainland and we’ll stop for a celebratory picture before riding on to our hotel. If we are feeling energetic we can take a very scenic coastal road where there are a few small but steep hills on the way. The views are well worth the extra effort though.

Lodging	Manathai Resort
Description	Manathai Resort is a small boutique resort, located in the heart of beautiful Surin Beach Phuket Island. This exciting stylishly presented property faces the turquoise Andaman Sea, with direct access to the white sands of Surin Beach.

Day 10: Free Day

Today is yours to relax and rest after eight days of great riding. We can help with arrangements if you’d like to extend your stay at Phuket or organize transfers to the airport for onward flights.

I wanted to compliment SpiceRoads on organising a great bike tour for us in Thailand last week. The food and accommodation exceeded our expectations and your team were overwhelming in their service - particularly Natt and Bottle. Trek road bikes were the best I have had on similar bike tours with other companies.

                                        We meet at a Bangkok hotel before we transfer to the start of our ride in Petchaburi (approximately 2 hours). This ride is a gentle start to the trip as we head out
of Petchaburi and into rural Thailand, along roads flanked by paddy fields and
palm trees. We then ride along the beach into Cha-am and on to the beach resort
town of Hua Hin. The town is closely tied to Thai royalty and the king currently
resides at the summer palace located just outside town. The last 20 km is on a
main road but there is a wide shoulder to ride on and if the traffic proves to be too
heavy this section can be transferred. We’ll top off our day with a seafood dinner
on a pier in the center of town.

        We head out of Hua Hin, towards Sam Roi Yot (300 hundred peaks) national park. This park has spectacular limestone formations and freshwater marshes in
        between the peaks. We ride on quiet back roads alongside beaches with many the peaks as our background. After the park we have a short ride on the main
        road, about 20 km, before heading back to the coast, passing many small villages on the way.  The final section is along the beach to Prachuap Khiri
        Khan. The selected hotel has some great views and as the town is well known for having some of the finest seafood in Thailand, we’ll feast on the local
        specialties at dinner.

        With rested legs it’s time to do some serious kilometers. Today we ride 118 kilometers on quiet side roads with very little traffic. Our route sticks
        to the coast today giving us views of the sea to the left and rugged mountains on our right. We are passing through Thailand’s narrowest part as the
        border with Burma is less than 20 km away at some points. We end the ride just north of Chumpon, at another secluded and quiet beach.

                                        We continue our journey south, riding from valley to valley towards picturesque
Khao Lak. The road flattens out a bit as we reach Takua Pa, which is a former
Portuguese settlement. The region was an important tin-dredging center in the
first half of the 20th century, but there remains little evidence of the mining as
rubber plantations have covered the dredged land. We next ride through one of
the worst areas devastated by the 2004 Tsunami. You’ll be amazed to see how
quickly this area has bounced back and rebuilt.  There is a small climb to our
hotel which is right on the beach and set next to a small national park

                                        The last leg of the tour is to the tropical paradise of Phuket island, Thailand’s
largest island. There are a couple of small hills to conquer before we leave Khao
Lak, but then it’s flat all the way down to Phang Nga and Phuket. This road is in
excellent condition and you’ll make good time towards our resort on Surin beach.
Phuket is connected by a bridge to the mainland and we’ll stop for a celebratory
picture before riding on to our hotel. If we are feeling energetic we can take a
very scenic coastal road where there are a few small but steep hills on the way.
The views are well worth the extra effort though.
