Summary and comparison of all the different Asian Motorcycle Adventure motorcycle tour offerings.


 

Thirteen different Asian motorcycle tours, a tough choice. (Note: Not every motorcycle tour is offered every year.)
To help you with your motorcycle tour selection, here's an abbreviated summary and comparison of them all.

The Thailand BEACHES MOTORCYCLE TOUR » has the least mileage of our 10-Day Tours that absolutely no one will miss. This Thailand motorcycle tour is overloaded with sun and fun and exquisite cuisine. Krabi, Lanta, Koh Samui are all outstanding destinations.
Khao Sok National Park where we spend two nights is one of Thailand's gifts to the world. Phuket is reason enough alone to come visit Asia. And our day-visit to Victoria Point, the southernmost point in Burma is always a favorite with our participants.

The GOLDEN TRIANGLE MOTORCYCLE TOUR » encompasses the most breathtaking motorcycle touring of any A.M.A trip. 90% of all our routes up here are a biker's wet dream. The quantity, quality, and diversity of the roads will astound you. Wondrous temples, mountaintop villages home to dozens of hill tribe groups, and fine handicrafts and shopping will keep you constantly occupied. The weather is cooler than in the south, the food is great, yet different from the other Thai regions, and Chiang Mai makes for a terrific base.

    If your main purpose in coming to Asia is to experience the GREATEST CONCENTRATION OF MOTORCYCLE RIDING in Asia, this is the tour for you. This is also our most popular motorcycle tour choice.

 

The ALL-THAILAND GRAND TOUR » is an extended motorcycle tour lasting 28 days covering over 5,000 kilometers. You will see just about all of Thailand on this motorcycle tour. The ALL-THAILAND GRAND TOUR starts down south in Phuket and finishes up in the northern capital of Chiang Mai.

    The featured activity on this tour is SCUBA DIVING. Included in the tour price are scuba diving instruction leading to certification by the end of the tour, or if you are already certified, then 10 dives on 5 different days are included.

    This motorcycle tour is actually a combination of two of our tours, our GOLDEN TRIANGLE MOTORCYCLE TOUR » and our BEACHES MOTORCYCLE TOUR » with a lot more thrown in. Even though we cover so much territory, the pace never feels rushed because we have 8 two-night stays built into this tour. If you have a month to spare, there is no better way to spend it than on this ALL-THAILAND GRAND TOUR.

 

The LAOS MOTORCYCLE TOUR » is A.M.A's most fascinating trip. Only open to riders with off-road experience, and you must be in decent physical condition as well because this is not a cushy trip.  Our off-road motorcycles transport us into mankind's past, visiting people living a lifestyle millennia old. This tour is the essence of adventure travel and my personal favorite. Stimulating and exotic. Superlative trail riding and scenery for those who relish getting off the beaten track.

Our 31-DAY  THAILAND-CAMBODIA MOTORCYCLE TOUR EXPEDITION » is the best of our Golden Triangle Motorcycle Tour plus our Cambodia - Angkor Wat Tour plus, plus, plus! This tour combines the tourist-friendly amenities of northern Thailand together with high-octane motorcycle adventure found in Cambodia, one of the least-visited
countries in the world. The terrain is both rugged and wild, and on the Cambodia segment we will experience hard living and hard driving. Off-road motorcycle skills is a must for this tour. Once you have completed this tour, you will have experienced nearly all the highlights in this part of the world.

  If you need any help rationalizing spending this amount of money on yourself for a motorcycle trip, think about it this way: If your wife or better half can go out and blow thousands of dollars on a designer dress she'll wear maybe twice, plus thousands more on matching shoes and handbag, don't you at least deserve to treat yourself to a one-month tour of a lifetime?

 

5-DAY MOTORCYCLE TOURS IN THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE » are arecent addition to our schedule. Many wannabe participants tell us they simply are not able to spare the two weeks needed for our usual 10-day tours. These 5-day tours have the same great riding, sightseeing, culture and cuisine as do our longer tours but we only cover half the distance and visit half the itinerary stops.

  Two, 5-day motorcycle tours are being offered. These are the GOLDEN TRIANGLE WEST MOTORCYCLE TOUR » and the GOLDEN TRIANGLE SOUTH MOTORCYCLE TOUR ». If you can not make it to Asia for a two-week stretch, you should consider one of these 5-day tours.

 

ANGKOR WAT MOTORCYCLE TOUR ». The antiquities in Angkor make it is simply one of the most amazing places on earth and one of mankind's' most mesmerizing creations. If you choose this tour, you should have a lively interest in history, architecture, and art. And you should also know how to handle an off-road motorcycle because the ride into Cambodia is over one of the the worst (or best ---depending on which way you look at it) roads on any A.M.A. tour.

    But even if you can not ride off-road, you still should not miss out on our Angkor Wat trip because we can put your motorcycle on the back of our support truck for the ride in from the Thailand border. Because once we are in Angkor and Siem Reap, by far the best way to visit the antiquities is by motorcycle.

  If I live to be 100, I'll still never be able to take in all of Angkor Wat. Ask anyone who has ever visited Angkor. It has to be seen to believed.


The TRANS-BORNEO MOTORCYCLE EXPEDITION » is just what it says it is--an expedition. Expect the unexpected on this tour, as we battle the conditions each day trying to make it to our intended destination each night. The challenges are great, but so is the reward of completing a journey and seeing a region and countryside that few people will ever witness.

    All is not hardship though, as the last third of this tour is quite posh. In Sarawak, Brunei, and Sabah we get to act like normal tourists after nearly 2 straight weeks of battling the jungles with our motorcycles.

 

The PENINSULAR MALAYSIA MOTORCYCLE TOUR » offers the best road conditions and highest mileage on any of our standard 10-day motorcycle tours. Three of the roads are absolutely superb motorcycling segments. Malaysia, overall, is more developed than Thailand and the prevailaing comfort level is high. Taman Negara National Park is a special treat as is Pulau Redang. 
    No roughing it on this trip. English is widely spoken in Malaysia so social interaction with the locals is easy. 

 

The magnificent 82-kilometer logging trail through primary jungle on the BORNEO MOTORCYCLE TOUR » is probably the most spectacular and enjoyable road on any A.M.A tour, and we do it twice! Plus, it takes us for a two-night stay at the award-winning Borneo Rain Forest Lodge. A whole new world, or rather underworld, opens up to us at Mulu National Park with their incredible cave system. Spending time with the Dyaks and the Rungus ethnic groups is a moving social interchange. Every stop on this tour is guaranteed to make a lasting impression. The elevated tour price is due to an extended tour length combined with multi-night visits at two 5-star resorts, and this tour also includes a domestic air flight.

BURMA MOTORCYCLE TOUR » Burma is still largely untouched by tourists and is a most interesting country in its own rights. Very little commercial development has taken place inside Burma, and you will visit a country mired in the past as the rest of the world barrels into the future. Their temples are among the finest in Asia, and Bagan is one of the most important historical and archeological sites in Asia. I personally love Burma and it is a special treat every time I return for a visit to there.

 

Our COMBINATION TOURS mixes and matches the best features from two separate A.M.A tours. If the tour of your choice is fully booked, or your traveling schedule is fixed, you can't go wrong joining one of our combination tours. A lot of diversity is packed into these 11-day packages.

    The THAILAND COMBINATION TOUR practically offers you the whole of Thailand on a silver platter. It runs from the north to the south of the country and has the biggest variety of sights and activities. In the south we will visit several of the great beach resorts. In the middle of the country you'll visit Ranong and Burma and absorb Thai culture and history in the ancient city of Sukhothai. Up north, the fantastic motorcycle roads that makes the golden Triangle so legendary with bikers, lie in wait, and we will also visit several of the hill tribe ethnic minorities.

    The THAILAND--MALAYSIA COMBINATION TOUR will allow you to visit two Asian nations in a single visit to this continent. These two neighboring countries could not be more different from each other. We'll let you form your own comparisons about them.


It is now time for you to choose!
