Country Profile
Motorcycle Travel Thailand: Experience Adventurous Routes & Nature
Thailand is a true paradise for motorcycle travel, combining adventure with breathtaking nature. The unforgettable routes lead through lush rice fields and majestic mountains. Especially the Golden Triangle with the winding road from Pai and the impressive Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai attracts motorcycle enthusiasts. The best time to travel for tours is between November and February, when the weather is optimal. Don't miss the local delicacies like Pad Thai and Massaman Curry - a taste experience on your journey. Also visit motorcycle tours in Thailand for more information.
Does this trip match your riding level?
Thailand's riding runs from easy on-road cruising to real enduro work, and the three tours on this page split cleanly by skill level. The two on-road tours, the 10-day route through the north and the on-road adventure through the Golden Triangle, run mostly on sealed roads and suit riders with solid street experience: no dirt skills required. The 14-day combined Thailand & Laos tour adds enduro stages around Mae Malai, where you need to be confident standing on the pegs on loose gravel and packed dirt.
You ride a rental bike on every Thailand tour: a Honda CB 500X on the on-road routes, with a Suzuki V-Strom 650 or Honda Africa Twin CRF 1000 available on request. On the combined tour the enduro stages are covered on a Honda CRF250 (2012 model) or Kawasaki KLX250, with a refundable €200 deposit paid locally. Shipping your own bike from Europe is not offered for this destination.
Groups run from just 1 rider on the combined tour up to 10 on the on-road tours, always with an English and German speaking guide. A support vehicle for luggage joins the group from 4 riders. Days follow a route briefing, hours in the saddle through the mountains, and an overnight in a double room, apartment or bungalow depending on the tour.
Experience required
The on-road tours suit riders with solid street experience and need no off-road background. The 14-day combined tour adds enduro stages around Mae Malai, where you should be confident standing on the pegs on loose gravel and dirt.
Own bike allowed
No: you ride a rental Honda CB 500X on the on-road tours, or a Honda CRF250 / Kawasaki KLX250 for the enduro stages, against a refundable €200 deposit. Shipping your own bike from Europe isn't offered for this destination.
Daily distance
Daily distances vary by tour and stage, with several hours in the saddle each day on mountain roads. The on-road tours run 10 days, and the combined Thailand & Laos tour runs 14 days.
Typical day
Each day opens with a route briefing, followed by hours of riding through mountain roads and national parks with stops at temples, hot springs or elephant camps. A support vehicle joins from 4 riders, and nights are spent in a double room, apartment or bungalow with a local guide.
Best time to ride
The cool, dry season from November to February is the best time to ride northern Thailand, with clear roads around Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Outside these months expect more heat, and rain from around May onward. For the full month-by-month picture, see our Thailand travel information page.

What's included in a Thailand motorcycle tour price?
Every OVERCROSS Thailand tour includes an English and German speaking guide, your rental motorcycle, overnight stays with breakfast, and a support vehicle for luggage once the group reaches 4 riders. Flights, evening meals and travel insurance are not included; check each tour's included list for the full breakdown.
Do I need to bring my own motorcycle?
No: you ride a rental bike on every Thailand tour. The on-road tours use a Honda CB 500X, with a Suzuki V-Strom 650 or Honda Africa Twin CRF 1000 available on request. The combined Thailand & Laos tour adds a Honda CRF250 or Kawasaki KLX250 for the enduro stages, against a refundable €200 deposit paid locally.
How big are the groups?
Group size depends on the tour: the on-road routes run with up to 10 riders, while the combined Thailand & Laos tour keeps groups smaller, up to 8 riders, for closer guiding on the enduro stages.
Which tour suits my riding level?
The two on-road tours suit riders with solid street experience and no off-road background. The 14-day combined Thailand & Laos tour adds enduro stages around Mae Malai and suits riders with some off-road experience.
How does booking and the deposit work?
Once you request a tour, you'll receive a personal offer including the mandatory travel security certificate under German law (§651r BGB). The booking becomes binding once you confirm, after which you'll get your tour documents and packing list.
Can I book a Thailand tour as a solo traveler?
Yes. On the combined Thailand & Laos tour, solo travelers take a single room or, where possible, half a double room. On the on-road tours a single room surcharge applies; ask us for the current amount when you request your offer.
