Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Historic City of Ayutthaya, Pratu Chai Sub-district, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya District, Ayutthaya 13000 Thailand
We arrive at our starting point for touring this historical site, where you will get a short safety briefing and your bike will be properly adjusted.

We will take off the beaten tracks and onto local trails that show you authentic Thailand.
Duration: 1 hour 45 minutes
Stop At: Wat Mahathat, Thanon Naresuan, Tambon Tha Wa Su Kri, Amphoe Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Chang Wat Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya 13000, Thailand
Our guide continues guiding you passing the ancient city walls and the Wat Mahathat, admiring the Buddha images of this great temple. You will of course receive an explanation about the history of Ayutthaya and its temples and kings.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Chao Praya River, Ayutthaya Thailand
We leave the main roads and ride into the Thai countryside on back roads that parallel the Chao Phraya River. We follow the road in northern direction through idyllic, quaint little villages and along rice paddies. To continue our journey, we cross the river by local ferry and reach our lunch address – a local Thai restaurant right en route towards our afternoon visits.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Wat Niwet Thammaprawat, Bang Pa-in Thailand
After this break, our paths lead to a unique Gothic-style temple, called Wat Niwet Thamaprawat, erected on a river island. This rather impressive temple can only be reached via a short ride due to its rural location.

Pass By: Chao Praya River, Ayutthaya Thailand
We continue our ride with the Chao Phraya River near us until we reach the pier to cross the river again back to the city and finish the tour at our meeting point.
