Day 1: Petchaburi - Hua Hin, 42 mi. (68 km)
After meeting at a  Bangkok hotel, there will be a 2 hour transfer to Petchaburi for the start of the cycling. This ride is a gentle start, heading out of Petchaburi and into rural Thailand, along roads flanked by paddy fields and palm trees. The cycling continues along the beach into Cha-am and to the beach resort town of Hua Hin, closely tied to Thai royalty. The king currently resides at the summer palace located just outside town. The last 20 km is on a main road but there is a wide shoulder to ride on and if the traffic proves to be too heavy this section can be transferred. You will top off the day with a  seafood dinner on a pier in the center of town. (L, D)

The peaks of the spectacular limestone formations will be your backdrop. As the riding ocntinues back toward the coast, you will pass through  many small villages. The final section is along the beach to Prachuap Khiri Khan.

The route leads toward a serene beach and thenature- friendly boutique resort, Baan Grood Arcadia, for a refreshing overnight. Take time  to relax in a hammock and listen to the surf.

You pass through Thailand’s narrowest part, and  the border with Burma is less than 20 km away at some points. The day ends just north of Chumpon, at another secluded and quiet beach. (B, L, D)

Today you will cross the Isthmus of Kra, which separates the Gulf of Thailand from the Adaman Sea and is just 44 km wide at it narrowest point. The route leads west for about 60 km on an undulating road that cuts through the lush jungle covered mountains that surround this area. The hills and the twists and turns in the road make for some varied riding. There is a climb of about 3 km starting at the Pun Ya Ban Waterfall and then it is downhill and flat all the way to Ranong. This is a spa town and the hotel has a hot mineral spring pool to soothe those aching muscles. (B, L, D )

Day 7: Ranong – Khuraburi, 80 mi. (128 km), Elevation gain +1052 m/-981 m
Rolling hils, but no extreme climbs, is the route today as you ride through valleys We ride through valleys withjust enough ascents and descents to make the ride interesting. You will pass many villages and the local  children wills surely wave and shout out Farang, Farang! (Foreigner). After some great views the ride ends in a lovely little resort nestled in a valley and surrounded by lush tropical rainforest. (B, L, D)

Day 8: Khuraburi - Khao Lak, 45 mi. (72 km), Elevation gain +518 m/-587 m
The journey continues south, riding from valley to valley towards picturesque Khao Lak. The road flattens out a bit the closer to Takua Pa, a former Portuguese settlement. The region was an important tin-dredging center in the first half of the 20th century, but there remains little evidence of the mining as now rubber plantations have covered the dredged land. Next, the ride is a bit sobering as you pedal through one of the most devastated areas of the 2004 Tsunami. You’ll be amazed to see how quickly this area has bounced back and rebuilt. There is a small climb to the hotel which is right on the beach and set next to a small na­tional park. (B, L, D) 

Day 9: Khao Lak - Phuket, 88 mi. (106km), Elevation gain +741 m/-743 m
The last leg of the tour leads to the tropical paradise of Phuket, the largest island and also a province of Thailand. There are a couple of small hills to conquer before leaving  Khao Lak, but then it’s flat all the way down to Phang Nga and Phuket. This road is in excellent condition and you’ll make good time to­wards the resort on Surin Beach. Phuket is connected by a bridge to the main­ land and you will  stop for a celebratory picture before riding on to our hotel. If you are feeling energetic, you can take a very scenic coastal road where there are a few small but steep hills on the way. The views are well worth the extra effort though. (B, L, D)
