Golden Triangle Explorer Cycle Tour - We start the trip from Chiang Rai and head immediately north to our hotel on the Mekong River. An afternoon ride will take you through the countryside and to the ancient river town of Chiang Saen. The next morning we visit the Opium Museum which documents the history of the opium trade and how one of the most abundant crops in the area has now been replaced by legal produce thanks to various royal projects. On this second day of riding, we follow the Mekong River towards Chiang Khong, taking in expansive views over the Mekong, the natural border that separates Thailand from Laos. On our final day, we head west towards Chiang Rai, experiencing true Thai village life on the way. On the outskirts of Chiang Rai, we’ll visit a unique temple before parting ways.

Day 1: Pick up in Chiang Rai and then transfer to the Golden Triangle area and head out for a scenic loop through the countryside and visit the town of Chiang Saen, the former capital of Lanna. ( L, D )

Day 2: Today we have a sobering visit to the Opium Museum before starting our more challenging ride along the Mekong River towards Chiang Khong and our lodge in the midst of a Hmong village. ( B, L, D )

Day 3: We complete our loop and cycle west towards Chiang Rai on small country roads, through rice fields and orchards and sleepy villages and stop to visit the White Temple outside Chiang Rai. ( B, L)
