Fantastic day 🎇 - My wife and myself booker rural experience route. But on the day when I told the guide that my wife was just beginner rider, he showed us alternative route with the short video illustration as well. So we can visualize what to expect. The trail was very enjoyable and relaxing. Along the way, the guide and driver prepared some fruits for us also for refreshment. Overall the trail was fascinating and the service was above and beyond. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend this tour! - We loved our tour with Trailhead - everything was very well organised, the route was beautiful and the equipment was excellent. The route goes through rice paddies, some woods and rural villages, both paved and double tracks. We were kept well hydrated and well fed throughout the tour, and while it does require some basic level of fitness, the guide made sure to accommodate everyone's abilities. At the end there is an extra uphill bit you can do if you're up for the extra challenge.

Really enjoyable day of cycling close to Chiang Mai - The Fields of Gold tour proved to be an excellent day out. The scenery was lovely throughout, particularly when we reached a waterfall. The cycling for the most part was reasonably straightforward and not very technical but there were a few sharpish inclines to negotiate so a certain degree of fitness is definitely an advantage. Kom was a great guide and has sent me many photos and videos from the day. The bike used was an almost brand new Trek mountain bike in great condition. Overall, I would highy recommend the tour and Trailheads. This is the second tour I've done with them and would love to do another one day. Great value for what is provided.

Great day biking around rice fields - This tour is run by Trailhead, which seems to be a very good outfit generally. Their own description captures the tour very well. Bikes were well maintained (not always the case). Although we took the tour in early March, and the fields were not golden, the rice had been planted and the fields were a vivid green. The route is interesting from the point of view of scenery and a challenging bike ride as well. Perhaps not challenging for hardened mountain bikers, but certainly for recreational cyclists. My husband and I are in our early-ish 70s and bike a lot at home, this was perfect for us. The tour guide was careful to make sure that the oldies were not having difficulties while letting the (one) younger one speed up. There were a few places off-track where the route downhill was too rutted for me to be comfortable, so I walked. Lunch was in a beautiful spot by water, typically Thai (pad thai, green curry, a not typical mushroom dish) and plentiful. I highly recommend if this kind of thing is your thing. I would certainly use Trailhead for all cycling tours.

Fun Day out with great service provider - Great experience, the trail is manageable for someone like me, who rarely ride a bicycle. Lek, our guide is very friendly and cheerful. The bike provided is really light, the ride going uphill become much easier with their bike. Will definitely join them again for different routes when I revisit Chiang Mai next time.

Great trip for active riders - We love riding dirt roads and in rural settings. This tour got us out of town to see the countryside and up and down rolling dirt roads without the need for pads and single track craziness. Loved it and wished it was a bit longer! Easy going staff, good gear and a great day trip.

Fields of Gold Great fun day trip - We were picked up from the hotel at agreed time. Our guides were friendly and professional. Bikes and equipment were good quality. Helmet was fitted at the shop. They asked us our height to match the right size bike when we booked. They supplied a snack and drinks. We rode through some beautiful countryside and villages. We finished off with a nice lunch at a restaurant with a lovely outlook over a lake before being dropped off at our hotel. Highly recommended.

The tour you need to do! - I booked this awesome tour through our hotel (2000thb pp). The package included hotel pick-up and drop-off, bikes, helmets, drinks & snacks during the ride, amazing cycling guides and a delicious lunch at the end. There were only 7 riders on the tour + 2 guys cycling alongside us + 2 cars with extra guys in case of an emergency/ for snacks. The route was stunning and we travelled ~36km around rice paddy fields, banana plantations and villages of rural Chiang Mai. The tour guides catered to the needs of the riders, e.g. if people were slower, the second tour guide would hang back to make sure that person was okay. Trailhead suggested that this was a ‘mild’ ride. I think that a moderate level of fitness is required given that it is road and mountain trails with steep inclines and descents at times (in my opinion - I am NOT a seasoned cyclist). At the end of the tour, we were driven to lunch which was at this gorgeous restaurant which was a bit off the beaten path. All in all, give this cycling tour a crack if you want to see real Chiang Mai.
