Featured review

Kristin_C

A great change from the typical tours in Phuket… exploring the jungle and plantations on a mountain bike was a great way to learn about the agriculture and have fun at the same time. There were a few parts of the ride were more technical and definitely some hills but we are a mountain biking family from Colorado so we managed fine but you do need to be prepare for a good workout! Our guide, Lee was fabulous… and the snacks along the way and lunch at the end were so good! Highly recommend if a good bike ride is your thing!

A different side of Phuket

Paul_L, Mar 2026

Great trip. Really well organised, from pick up to drop off. Good bikes. Rode through a variety of countryside, including some wonderful jungle, almost all of it on flat roads and trails - easy riding. Lots of snacks, drinks stops, including a small village shop where we got to try loads of local stuff from the shelves. Our guide, Lee, was very informative. All ended with a very nice lunch looking over the water. Top day out.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Your title says it all. Thank you very much Paul for joining us on the northern Phuket trails and taking the time to review. A beautiful description you give of the activity. Information about the nature and farming lifestyle is an essential part of our cycling tours. We hope to welcome you again

Exhilarating, educational bike tour! Great way to spend a day in Phuket’

Kristin_C, Jan 2026

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you very much Kristin for your review, and for joining with your family. So nice to read that you enjoyed this off-the-beaten-track experience in the north of Phuket. You give a good description also of the activity. Thanks for the recommendation, and we hope to welcome you again, on the bike in Phuket or Phang Nga!

Fantastic tour with an outstanding guide!

Mikael_H, Dec 2025

Me and my wife had a really wonderful bike tour here in Phuket! We cycled a total of 22 km, which was a great route through beautiful surroundings. Everything was well-organized and professional. The only reason I am giving four stars instead of five is simply that I wanted even more time in the saddle—the tour left me wanting to cycle further! However, the "fifth star" definitely goes to our guide. His passion for sharing stories about the different locations was infectious, and he was incredibly friendly, making an effort to chat with everyone along the way. Most importantly, I want to highlight his extreme patience. We had a fellow traveler in the group—a Greek man—who behaved very poorly throughout the entire trip. He demanded constant service, forced the group to stop repeatedly for photos, and even yelled at the guide because the food took time. He was rude to the rest of the group and even scolded the taxi driver for not dropping him off at his hotel first. Despite this difficult behavior, the guide remained calm, professional, and kind. He handled the situation with incredible grace. A huge thank you to the guide for making the experience so positive despite the circumstances!

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you very much Mikael for your lovely review and for joining our small-group cycling tour in Phuket. So nice to read your description and what you write about our guide Lee, very appreciated. I will forward your review to him. We look forward to welcome both of you again!

The half-day tour was...

Andre_B, Dec 2025

The half-day tour was overall decent. The route took us over rough and varied terrain, which made the ride physically demanding but also genuinely enjoyable. The scenery around Phuket was impressive, and a few stunning photo spots along the way added to the experience. The meal at the end was a pleasant surprise and tasted excellent. A solid choice for travelers who enjoy an active outing with rewarding views.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you very much Andre for joining our cycling tour in the north of Phuket, and for taking the time to give your impressions. This really helps others interested in this bike ride. This area of Phuket indeed has great views. We hope to welcome you again!

Fun and relaxing experience.

Zaza_H, Oct 2025

It was a fun tour with plenty of stops for water and snacks. Lee, the host was experienced and friendly. In my opinion, the tour is not really for a beginner cyclist. The person should at least be familiar with the bike gears because the ride was not all flat. Some fitness level is also required to cycle 20km with a few uphill intervals.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you very much Zaza for joining our bike tour and for taking the time to review it. What you write is very helpful for others interested in the this bike ride in the Phuket farmland. There are a few short hills, but people can walk up if they want. This tour is accompanied by our air-conditioned support vehicle

Great day out the bike....

Albert_K, Aug 2025

Great day out the bike. Bikes are very well maintained and in great condition. Going through the rain forest was a lot of fun. Our guide Lee was very informative and helpful

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you very much Albert for joining us on the trails and roads of northern Phuket, and for taking the time to review your cycling experience. The trail through the tropical forest is also my favourite part. I will pass your compliments to our guide Lee. We look forward to welcome you again

Interesting ride

Elizabeth_L, Mar 2025

Very interesting and ejoyable ride. I'm not a mountain biker, but there was only one short section (down and up) where I needed to push the bike.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you very much for reviewing our bike ride in the farmland of northern Phuket, and for joining. You don't need to be a mountain bikes to do this tour, as most trails are completely flat, except the very short part you mention where people just walk down and up again. We hope to welcome you again!

Very good cycling

George_h, Feb 2025

It was very good. We enjoyed the ride very informational. The workers were very informed. was good for all cycling levels.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you very much for your review and for joining our bike tour. Our guides indeed love to share their knowledge about local life and nature with you. Thanks for taking the time to review, and we look forward to welcome you again

Nice activity

Rita_B, Jan 2025

Nice experience, felt a little bit adventueres, and not to crowded. Good bikes and the female guide was full of knowledge about nature, culture and answered most of the questions you asked.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you Rita for taking the time to review our bike ride in the farmland of northern Phuket. So nice to read that felt a little bit like an adventurer. Some parts of the route indeed are far off the beaten track, where you won't see any other tourist. Thanks for the compliments for the guide, we will send it to her. Hopefully we can welcome you again one day on our tours

A beautiful trip and...

Ahmad_O, Dec 2024

A beautiful trip and experience. I enjoyed seeing the forests, trees and sea. It is a fun sport dot miss it

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thank you very much Ahmad for taking the time to review our activity and for joining it. Great that you loved seeing the combination of jungle and seaside of Phuket. Thanks for the recommendation also, and we hope to welcome you both again one day on our tours

Wonderful niche activity in Phuket

Leon_D, Sep 2024

I was fortunate enough to receive a private tour as I was the only person who booked on this particular day. Pui is an excellent guide who is very knowledgeable and attentive. We cycled over 20km, with some breaks in between. And saw a lot of interesting sights. We finished at a seafood restaurant for lunch. I'd definitely recommend this excursion.

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Thanks a lot Leon for your review, and for joining our Phuket bike tour. This is a small-group tour, with a maximum of 12 people. Mor would be uncomfortable on the farmland trails of northern Phuket. I will forward your compliments to our guide. Thanks for the recommendation, and we hope to welcome you again one day on our tours

Fantastic!

sophie_y, Apr 2024

This was a highlight of my trip to Thailand! Really fun and interesting, the guides were excellent, professional in a very effortless way. Great to see some remote areas, forest, farming and wildlife and get off the beaten track. And it's easier to bike than walk when it's v hot as you have a nice breeze when you're moving. Highly recommended.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you very much Sophie for joining the tour and for taking the time to review it. I love what you write about biking in the heat, you have a constant nice breeze indeed. Thank you for recommending and hopefully we can welcome you again one day!

Good experience

Sylvia_G, Feb 2024

The ride was challenging for an inexperienced rider, but still fun. You ride for 21.5 kms and it includes some off road trails.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you Sylvia for taking the time to review and rate the tour, and for joining. The route of the tour indeed is designed to be fun for all levels of cyclists. The many trails fit the more experienced ones, but are still easy and flat and appeal also to the occasional biker. Thanks for joining us from Canada, and we hope to welcome you again one day on the bike in Phuket

One of the best activities in Phuket

Jolle_R, Jan 2024

We had an amazing day with Pui our guide. We were a small group , just 3 plus Pui. My friend and I were nervous because we don't ride bikes very often (meaning never ! ) but it was great, the country side, the forest, everything! We had such a blast!!! Pui explained to us so many thing, I will definitely do it again! But I was happy I am in a good shape et go to the gym a lot, cause it is not for a non activ person 😋

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Thank you very much for your review and for joining our tour. Quite a feature indeed, if you manage to do this cycling tour as a non-cyclist. Being almost completely flat, the route is designed to be accessible to anyone with an average fitness level. And if it would be too long for some, there is our air-conditioned van following the group. Nice title you use for the review. Thanks again, and we hope to welcome you again one day.

Wonderful

Olga_A, Jan 2024

Very beautiful experience and very grateful to our guides. Joris, Pui and the driver, you are the best!

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Thank you very much Olga for your review. It was so nice to share the ride through the Phuket forests, pineapple fields and ruuber plantations with Anna and you. And hopefully we can welcome you both again one day on our tours!

Nice way to discover...

sharkdog, Dec 2023

Nice way to discover Phuket from a different way. The cycling trip is well organized with sufficient breaks, during which a lot of explanation is given about the area. The cycling activity is just right in terms of intensity.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Thank you very much for your 5* review. This is a very good description of what people can expect. It really is a different Phuket you get to see. Thank you for joining and we hope to welcome you again one day

Great tour, unforgettable experience

Abwechslungsreich

Corinna_M, Dec 2024

Die Tour führt durch verschiedene Plantagen und es sind einige Höhenmeter zu überwinden. Für ungeübte Fahrradfahrer meines Erachtens nicht geeignet.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Vielen Dank Corinna fuer Ihre Review von unsere Fahrradtour. Abwechslungsreich ist est bestimmt: Dschungel, Kautschuk und Palmenoel plantagen, Ananas Felder, radfahren mit Aussicht aufs Mehr. Vielen Dank um dabei zu sein!

Hi Susanne, Vielen Dank fuer Ihre 5* Review, und auch um mit uns mit zu Fahren im Norder von Phuket. Die Dschungel Fahrt ist besonders und eigentlich ziemlich einfach, wegen komplett flach. Hoffenlich bis naechstes Mal in Phuket!
