One mountain stage, three intermediate sections and four flat sections can be conquered.
Constantly changing landscape scene and many cultural sights on the way become a breathtaking experience, which is denied to most Thailand tourists, because they hardly come here.
On the way north, you transition from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis Bangkok to rural Thailand. You pass by the Mekong River, orchards, vegetable, rice, and tobacco fields, sugar cane, strawberry, and cashew nut plantations, as well as small provincial towns, farming villages, and a huge reservoir. After crossing the mountains towards Luang Prabang, you arrive in a city classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
"Road conditions: In Thailand, the roads are very good, whereas in Laos, the road conditions are poorer, and potholes are frequent.
Our bike setup with 32mm tire width proved to be effective here, so we encountered no issues in this regard during the last tour."

Day 1 = Bangkok
Arrived in Bangkok, one of the largest and most moving cities in Asia, you will be surprised how advanced this city, which covers 20 million people in an area of 600 square kilometers, is. The bustling metropolis, which is awake 24 hours a day, can undoubtedly be described as one of the most interesting in the world.
The day is at leisure. For customers who have arrived the day before, Thailand Cycle Tours offers an optional sky-lane bike tour at the airport or a city tour. Bangkok is one of the safest and friendliest capitals in the world. She is definitely worth getting acquainted.
Day 2 = Prolog Petchabun
50km 146 climbing meters
In the morning at 7 o'clock, you will meet your guide and the support staff who will accompany you on your cycling experience to Luang Prabang. We will drive approximately 280 kilometers by mini-van to Petchabun. After lunch, we will begin our bike tour with a small prologue of 50 kilometers. The route is lined with rice, sugarcane, vegetable, and fruit fields on both sides. We will have our first evening dinner together in Petchabun. (B, L, D)
Day 3 = Petchabun - Dan Sai
119km 885 climbing meters
At 8 o'clock, you will start in the direction of Loei Province for the next part of your cycle tour. The first 80 kilometers are flat and go along rice, sugarcane, vegetable and fruit fields. Then the road rises, and it goes through a beautiful mountain landscape. The last 10 kilometers, however, it goes downhill again to our accommodation. (B, L, D)
Hotel Phu Na Come
Day 4 = Dan Sai - Chiang Khan
124km 1096 climbing meters
The start is again at 8 o'clock. Today's stage is longer, leading us along the Mekong River over rolling hills to the Chiang Khan Skywalk, offering a view of the confluence of a larger river with the Mekong. We will enjoy our lunch at a local eatery right on the banks of the Mekong River.
Upon arriving at Chiang Khan, a largely undiscovered and unpolished gem, the evening is free. However, I recommend visiting the shopping street, where almost every house is built entirely of wood. (B, L)

Day 5 = Chiang Khan - Sang Khom
105km 561 climbing meters
After the departure at 8 am, the winding Mekong River winds its way along flat roads to the small town of Sang Khom, which is located on a scenic section of the Mekong River in western Nong Khai Province.
Those who still have strength and energy can optionally and on their own visit the "Skywalk Wat Pha Tak Suea," which is 17 km away. However, everyone must be back at the hotel by 4:00 pm at the latest, as we need to load the bikes for the upcoming border crossing. (B, L, D)
Day 6 = Sang Khom - Ventiane rest day
Today is a rest day. After a short transfer of about an hour, we cross the border into Laos. Then we head to the hotel in Vientiane, the capital of Laos. From noon onwards, you will have free time. Enjoy exploring the city or relax at the hotel.
Important: Almost all nationalities require
a visa for Laos! Please make sure to bring a passport photo and about $50 in
fees. Please check your respective entry requirements for safety. (B)

Day 7 = Ventiane - Nam Ngum
95km 490 climbing meters
After a sumptuous breakfast, we cycle north at 8 am to the largest lake in Laos. The track is relatively flat. The first 15 kilometers, we are on major roads, until we are out of the capital. Then we continue on smaller roads, where the farmers sell their vegetables and fruits. At the end it goes uphill to a dam, where our hotel is located. (B, L, D)
Day 8 = Nam Ngum - Vang Vieng
106km 879 climbing meters
After breakfast, we will head for Vang Vieng at 8 am. During this section, we cycle through a hilly landscape. There are some climbs to tackle, but just like the day before, we're adjusting the pace to the skill of the group. Nobody is left behind. We take lunch at a really nice rest area next to a lake. There, the protein reserves that your body needs to strengthen the leg muscles are replenished. Then we continue to the backpacker village Vang Vieng, which is very well known. (B, L, D)
Day 9 = Vang Vieng - Kasi
96km 785 climbing meters
Today's adventure ride takes us to Kasi. We will start at 8:00 am and embark on a scenic loop in Vang Vieng, riding on some gravel roads before heading to Kasi through the mountains. Please note that the road conditions may not be optimal, and we may encounter many potholes along the way. Our guesthouse is located in Kasi, where we will have dinner with a local family.
Today, you have several options: either join us at 8:00 am for a scenic bike ride around Vang Vieng (35km), arrange a hot air balloon ride on your own, or enjoy your breakfast and join the group afterward (around 11:00 am) to head to Kasi.
After a group lunch in Vang Vieng, we will ride on some gravel roads towards the mountains to reach Kasi. Please be aware that the road conditions on this stretch may not be optimal. While roadworks are planned by Laos authorities, the exact timing is uncertain.
Our guesthouse in Kasi is run by a local family who will also prepare our dinner. Let yourself be surprised by their hospitality.

114km 1480 climbing meters
At 8 am, we cycle on our final leg of the bike tour to the beautiful, world-famous city of Luang Prabang, classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The route winds through a picturesque mountain landscape with both uphill and downhill sections. We'll enjoy our lunch break amidst this stunning scenery.
With an average gradient of 14% over 10 km and poor road conditions, the ascent is too steep to be cycled. However, for those with sufficient fitness and a desire for adventure, it may be attempte ,in "exceptional cases" with the approval of the lead guide.
After a coffee break at the summit, we'll begin cycling the remaining 94 km to Luang Prabang. The communal dinner will mark the end of the guided bike tour.(B, L, D)
