About us

It was back in 1998. My friend and I were eating "al fresco" off St. Christopher's place in London's West End. Two couples sat beside us at another table, planning their trip to Thailand. We couldn't help but eavesdrop. The names were too familiar. "Let's allow three days in Bangkok" one said. "OK, then overnight train to Chiang Mai for two days maybe" agreed the other. "And from there fly to Koh Samui; a week on a beach..." added the third. We glanced at each other and smiled, shook our heads slightly and ignored further conversation. We had both toured Thailand extensively by then and asked ourselves: "Is this what visiting the country is all about - a succession of cities and main tourist resorts?"

Well it is not if you choose to see Thailand by motorcycle. While riding you see people working in rice paddies and you actually smell the crop, you are amazed when you see a Thai farmer trying to get water buffaloes out of a pond, village people sitting in front of their houses watching passers by and being greeted by barefooted saffron robed monks walking along side of the road far away from any town. The wildlife of rainforests is right there, you can stop at historical monuments, forest temples, and elephant training camps, take boat trips and enjoy vistas not seen by many. In the late afternoon you arrive at a comfortable hotel, finish a day with a swim in a pool, a massage and a good Thai meal with drink. No, you will not "see it all" if you travel by motorcycle. Instead you will see the best. And you'll see it well.

In 1999 our first Grand tour “took off". Since then we have constantly improved the quality and added new tours. Our clients say that touring with us is like travelling with a group of friends. And this is the way we would like to keep it. Now our tour program includes five itineraries. We stick to the motto "quality not quantity". A group of up to six motorcycles works perfectly. It is easy to keep visual control and stick to the itinerary thereby getting the most out of the day. In the evening the whole group can eat together at one big table and conversations can be held without anyone being left out.

It is easy to fall in love with these Thailand once you have met her people; experienced the colour and excitement, the heat and vitality, the sounds and smells of a region that is second to none. The overriding impression is one of timelessness, of traditions unchanged through centuries, of a harmonious place. Old sits serenely by new, simple enhances elaborate, and an innate gracefulness touches all facets of life. The former Siam is the present ‘land of smiles’, where the locals are charming and visitors are charmed… again and again...Join us and we are going to show you the country the way nobody else will. You will not only see SE Asia, but you will live it!.
