Welcome to our Service Centre in the morning for a tour briefing and motorcycle hand over etc. We are at your disposal as of 8 am.

Enjoy a coffee at one of the many coffee stops on the way. From Phrao cross the mountain at Mae Waen, a pleasant scenic ride. One more mountain to cross for the day, over Doi Chang, famous for its coffee plantation and stunning scenery. The final stretch to Chiang Rai is on back roads, plenty of curves and pleasant hills. You will stop at the remarkable Wat Rong Khun (White Temple) which is today recognized as one of the main attractions all over Thailand. From the temple, there is only a short ride left to the hotel in central Chiang Rai. In the evening there is time to explore the night market or just relax at the hotel.
