Lamyai Labyrinth – more than half a day
1 of 10
Highlights:
You will cycle through beautiful fertile country with fruit plantations, villages and ricefields. There are lots of stunning temples in this area and we take the smaller roads and now and then will cycle offroad through plantations and ricefields. You will see a part of Thailand where very few tourists go. After a nice ride along the Mae Nam Kuang (Kuang River) we end the trip in Lamphun, a town where time has stood still.
Difficulty Level:
This tour is all about fruit. The land between Chiang Mai and Lamphun is extremely fertile due to the proximity of the Ping River and tributaries. It is also very scenic. On this bikeride we concentrate on everything that grows here. You will see coconut palms, banana, mango and papaya trees; we will pass through endless longan plantations because this is longan country and Lamphun is the longan capital of Northern Thailand. Less easy to spot are trees that carry fruits like santol, starfruit, jackfruit, sugar apple, rose apple, tub tim, guava, rambutan, pomelo and dragon fruit. You will taste at least five different kinds of fruit, some of which will be new for you. The tour ends in Lamphun where we will visit the market and Wat Haripunchai, the most famous temple.
* This trip available from June 1 until December 1.
