Thailand via the Mekong
NA
per personMid Life Adventures offered a spectacular ride out of Chiang Mai heading north on Thailand’s famous Highway 1155, crossing into Laos where we spent the next 8 days exploring this beautiful country, its environs, architecture, culinary offerings, remote villages, historical hot spots, and even the purpose-built Casino town on the Chinese border at Boten.
It was the ideal ‘riders ride’ on current 650cc Kawasaki motorcycles with the option to upgrade to BMW GS800.
A Once-In-a-Lifetime-Trip!
The tour started and ended in the beautiful area of Chiang Mai ‘THE ROSE OF THE NORTH’ with its breathtaking scenery, located 800 km north of Bangkok.
This tour provided an outstanding opportunity to obtain a thorough impression of the uniqueness of North Thailand and unseen Laos. We explored small, almost hidden routes that were unknown to many.
Laos was a country as yet untouched by modern demands. Its beauty lay in the stress-free, peaceful life of the Lao people, lush, pristine landscape, century-old traditions, and heritage. The magical, lush, and extremely colorful Laos offered motorcycle touring at its best: charming villages, exotic cultures, warm people, spectacular scenery, and mostly good tarmac roads.
We had lots of sightseeing and unforgettable memories as we passed through amazing natural, historical, traditional, and cultural attractions.
