There's a revolution in wine production today, as the new New World wines of Thailand are making a stunning breakthrough into the considered world of wine appreciation. Grown and processed in the stunning Asoke Valley sitting at an elevation of 350m above sea level, the location is perfect for nurturing wine grapes, and of course tasting the finished product.

The rolling hills are also an ideal place for dairies and we'll pass many on our bicycle ride. We'll also take the time to visit a few temples, including  the impressive 45 metre tall white Buddha at Wat Theppitak Punnaram. 

Riding the trails in this valley where vineyards and dairy farms coincide side by side you'll  discover a wonderful little escape from Bangkok that combines fun bicycle paths with some wine tasting and delicious Thai food. 

To turn a short trip into a real holiday you can add on our Kanchanaburi or Central Thailand tours and receive a 5% discount on the total price.

Day 1: Bangkok – Asoke Valley
Starting in Bangkok we drive north for two hours and arrive at Bonya Lit temple. Here we’ll get on our bikes and start riding on a quiet country road. Though the road is paved there are lots of potholes as the road winds and undulates through small dairies, tamarind orchards and even a sheep farm. After 6 km we’ll turn off onto a shaded gravel road that skirts a pond and will leads us to a dirt road. Here we’ll be without vehicle support for 4 km as we ride through mango orchards and fields of sugar cane. After a rest stop by a lake we’ll ride on to Khao Yai Winery and lunch at the Hornbill Restaurant complemented by a glass of wine. We’ll then take a tour of the vineyard and taste some Thai wine. We then have just 4 more kilometres to cycle to our resort. The pool has a wonderful view and it’s a great way to cool down after a day of cycling.
Day 2: Asoke Valley – Bangkok
After breakfast we have a short transfer to our start point. Today you will be climbing a bit on the bike as well as off the bike! We start by cycling on yet another very quiet road, passing tapioca fields and a rock quarry. Your climbing will be rewarded by a long downhill to Wat Tam Tien. Here you can climb the 145 stairs up to a cave. After a look around it’s time to get back on the bikes and we ride through sugar cane fields, passing a Chinese meditation centre with three distinctive statues. Then it’s just a few more turns of the pedals to the Prapatsorn grape farm. Here you can taste their local grapes and if you have a sweet tooth the candies they make from them. You’ll have a perfect view of the white Buddha on the hill. He’s sitting 112 metres above ground level on the hilltop and is made entirely from concrete. If you are up for the challenge a walkway with 1,250 steps leads to the base of the statue and the views are well worth the effort. After all that climbing a hearty lunch is in order. Sated with our thorough ride through Asoke Valley it’s time to head back to Bangkok.

Mr. Tee, our guide was fantastic. He was very patient with us not being good cyclists. Cabbages & Condoms Resort was better than expected and more than comfortable. The restuarants and food were beautiful throughout the tour. Thank you for a great experience.
