The region’s must-sees by motorbike

Have motorbike, will see EVERYTHING. That’s the motto for this six-day journey, which makes the most of travel on two wheels to see as many incredible sites as possible. From the temples of Nakhon Sawan to the tragic memorial of the Hellfire Pass via the Bridge Over The River Kwai, we’ll pack in the photo opps. But we’ll also make this a thrilling access-all-areas adventure, exploring by jungle dirt roads, longtail boats and remote mountain passes.
