Thailand Travel Guides
Upon first entering Thailand from Cambodia the roads were very pleasant, plenty of space and very little traffic. However as we got closer to Bangkok, the traffic volume steadily increased.
There are no rules to cycle touring As long as youre leaving one place on a bicycle and arriving at another youre cycle touring It can be a few miles or a couple hundred its up to you
Getting back into cycle touring was an adjustment that was easier for us to make than we expected We did worry that wed struggle to adjust to budget living but so far things are going well
If you’re in your twenties, you should pack a bike and ride as far as you can. Throw in the towel on your job and just do it.
We rolled into La-ngu simply because it was on route. We were expecting just to eat and sleep, but at dinner we ended up having a wholesome time.
Cycle touring is a way of travel that requires absolutely no expectations. But I don’t seem to learn that 🫠
I personally would not return to Bangkok. We booked 4 nights and I wished it was 2. Other travellers love it so much they’ll stay for a fortnight. To each their own.
It was directly outside our hotel and we were starving. Although it was out of budget for us we both felt a good meal was needed.
Songkran was pretty mind blowing, to be honest! The tradition is a country wide waterfight across Thailand and its the same in Cambodia, too.
Here’s something I forgot to tell you…I think we caused a small car accident! Someone had a bad day 😫
We found our travels to be so inspiring that we made sure to get back out on the road after a three year break thanks to you know who.
I could not believe my eyes when we cycled through a seaside town to see these monkeys!
One morning we set off on our bike ride and rolled between these gorgeous salt farms. It turned out we were cycling through Samut Sakhon, a leading province in sea salt farming.
It’s so perfect to be on the coastline of Thailand. Ah, I keep breathing a deep sign of relief and just taking in what’s around me.
We cycled into a 7 Eleven for a glass of ice water. Upon arrival I saw two tourist bikes; memorable with their flag pole and the collection of flags from all the wonderful places.
As soon as we turned off the main road and met the coastal path everything changed for us. The view of the sea, the breeze cooling temps and quieter roads made everything infinitely better.
I completely forgot to share this video the other day. It’s not actually a great example but it’s an example of handling dogs when cycling and probably the only one I’d manage to get on camera.
