cycling TOUR & Travel Updates

What a great day it was going out with Toha for a ride through Phuket. We did 75km on undulating surfaces,stopping at beaches, markets, local coffee and restaurants, and a cafe that you can just about touch planes from. Toha is a great ambassador for Phuket, his knowledge was shared and adsorbed. Cycling is a great way to see another side to the area your travelling and absorbing the culture and warmth of the locals. Do yourself a favour and get off the beaten track. Thanks Siam cycling anx Toha, great tour, good bikes. Nothing too hard. Josh, Australia

Siam Bike Tours – Phuket Coast to Coast Our family of four took part in the Phuket Coast to Coast cycle tour on 25 August 2025 – and what an experience it was! The weather was ideal, neither rainy nor too sunny, though we still needed sun cream for UV protection. We met at 8:45am for a clear briefing and bike fitting. Prateep and Toha ensured we were fully prepared, with Toha leading us as our guide. Despite Phuket’s reputation for steep hills and busy traffic, the route followed quiet, mostly flat roads, taking us to Laem Sai pier and then onwards for a refreshment stop before returning to the starting point – a total of 52 km. Although we’re all experienced riders, this was a last-minute booking during our trip, so we hadn’t packed proper cycling gear. I’d recommend padded shorts and gloves for extra comfort, but the distance was manageable without (just! 😅). Plenty of refreshments were provided along the way, with a refreshment break around 30km, is it even a bi’e ride if it doesn’t include coffee and cake 🤔🤣. We completed the tour within the expected 3.5 hours, including the stop. Given the heat compared to the cooler UK climate, we opted for e-bikes, which made it enjoyable for the whole family (ages 12–54). The bikes were in excellent condition, and the overall experience was fantastic. Lovely to receive copies of the photos taken on the day too 👍 Highly recommend Siam Bike Tours if you’re looking to explore Thailand on two wheels – thank you Toha for the miles and smiles!

I had an amazing private tour to Phuket bridge and beyond with Toha - good rental bike, nicely organised route, great pacing and good talk all the way!! Highly reco for all cycling enthusiasts!!

We went as a family with two children (aged 10 and 14). The weather was not on our side as it started to rain heavily soon after we set off, however we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend the tour. We saw the rural side of Phuket which we would never have discovered on our own. The bikes were reliable and well kept. We have a good level of fitness and found the cycling easy with the EV assist. Definitely a tour for anyone who wants to get away from the tourist areas. The Ruby Sea Cafe on the pier was fantastic and definitely worth a visit on its own (views would be stunning in clear weather). Our guide, Matt, was really friendly, helpful and informative. He looked after us really well.

We had a great tour, the bikes were perfectly prepared. Nice scenery on the coast to coast trip. If you want to see Phuket or do something different, I surely recommend this tour!

We booked a half day tour from Siam Bike tours. We read up on what we needed before our trip so we took our own shoes and helmet. The team fitted us to two Canyon road bikes with Di2, water and electrolytes for our ride. We were greeted by Toha and off we set off around the quieter streets and roads across to the East coast. It was more challenging than I thought in the heat but the route was mostly flat with a few short hills to get the heart rate up. We cycled to a cafe by the ocean for a cool drink and cake Back on the bikes past a Thai temple and then the slightly scary part of returning to Phuket but our guide was amazing very knowledgeable and found the best way back. Ended up cycling 51.8km, 243m elevation, 23kkph avg speed and moving time of 2hrs 15. Would love to ride on more tours with Siam bike tours in Thailand.
