3 DAY TOUR (Mae Hong Son Loop) | Motorcycle Tours in Thailand

The famous Mae Hong Son Loop is a comprehensive way to discover one of Thailand´s most authentic provinces. For those wanting to see the real Thailand and want to ride a biker´s paradise, the Mae Hong Son Loop is the perfect antidote. Mae Hong Son is the most mountainous province in Thailand and receives little traffic due to its relatively remote location and the time needed to reach it. This excursion will take you first to the highest peak in Thailand (Doi Inthanon with 2,565 meters above mean sea level). Ride along winding and narrow twisty curvy roads with high mountain scenery along the Myanmar border on perfect tarmac roads. 1,864 curves through a vast panorama view of Mae Hong Son and the charming Pai. National Parks and non-touristic places are full of unique history and activities.

Tour Highlights: Doi Inthanon National Park (the highest peak of Thailand); Vachiratharn waterfall; Famous 1,864 curves to Mae Hong Son; Wat Phra That Doi Kong Mu; the longest bamboo bridge in Thailand; Pai World War II Memorial Bridge; Tiger Kingdom
