Bow down and kiss the trail. His majesty the King of Thailand, or one of his influential subjects, must be an adventure-motorcycling aficionado. Twogether Tour’s Philip King outlines a dream landscape of riding in what was once Siam.
Golden Budha at Chiang Saen
To experience the thousands of kilometres of Thailand’s fantastic riding is one of adventure motorcycling’s greatest life pleasures. Riders can be stunned by the superb roads, easy riding and spectacular scenery to be found in northern Thailand.
Using Chiang Mai as an operational base, seven-day, 14-day or longer tours can be enjoyed most of the year. Maybe giving the greatest bang for the buck, 14 days in total with nine days riding is optimal. Seven days with five riding can be a wonderful taster of greater things to come, and while some undoubtedly cannot squeeze the extra time away, 26 days leads to another dimension as to what might be on offer.
