This is Thailand’s most popular road cycling journey, and for good reason! There’s nothing quite like gliding along excellently paved roads that snake past tropical shorelines, savoring delicious Thai cuisine, and enjoying the world-renowned hospitality of the Land of Smiles. From the coconut groves and sandy beaches along the Gulf of Thailand to the rugged headlands and bustling fishing ports of the Andaman Coast, road cycling from Bangkok to Phuket is a journey you’ll want to experience again and again – just as many SpiceRoads riders already have!

We meet in Bangkok and whisk ourselves away to the coastal area of Khlong Khon. A warm-up ride takes us through a patchwork of salt pans and aquaculture farms, leading us to the bustling beach town of Hua Hin. From there, we ride south along the Gulf of Thailand coastline, passing the limestone cliffs of Sam Roi Yot National Park and hopping from one scenic bay to the next before resting at a beachside hotel in Baan Grood. The next leg of the tour takes us through endless coconut groves and oil palm plantations before crossing the hilly Isthmus of Kra to the Andaman Sea. Now on Thailand’s rugged west coast, we head inland through the agrarian hinterlands of Ranong and Phang Nga provinces. We pause to soak in the Old-World charm of Takua Pa, a historic tin-mining town, and arrive at the sun-kissed sands of Khao Lak Beach. A final zip down the Andaman Coast leads us to Phuket, Thailand’s premier island destination. The tour ends in Phuket.

Join us on this classic road cycling journey from Bangkok to Phuket, where cyclists come for the challenge and fall in love with the charm of Thailand’s coasts!
