After booking I was immediately informed by the owner (Adon) that there will be a slight change to the route which was accepted. I was picked from my hotel by A (tour guide)and Rin (driver)really cool and welcoming guys. Cycling with A was amazing, it was cycling with a mate, we had so much fun and laughter that it didn’t seem like a tour. A’s friendly demeanour,character and knowledge are simply priceless. Overall, I’m glad I booked Chiang mai mountain biking and kayaking. Highly recommended!

Great experience from start to finish

Like you I performed my due diligence and assessed the various reviews of this business. Let me be categorical, the post claiming inferior bikes and poor staff is pure, adulterated rubbish. Our bikes were new and certainly not purchase at Walmart. I walked through the storage area on my way to the bathroom and saw no bikes that were of the quality claimed by some moron. Likewise, the safety equipment provided was in good condition. As far as the staff, we found everyone from the owner to our guide to be professional and attentive. The transportation was punctual and without incedent.The tour itself was a blast.The hike up the mountain was an enjoyable ealk and hardly challenging. It was our first time mountain biking and while I found it thrilling my wife found the bike down the mountain challenging. We are 64 and 63 respectively and above average physical condition so the physical exsurtion of the trekking up and the biking down the mountain were not a problem. As pure novices to mountain biking the challenge was navigating the rough terrain while going downhill. We both made it without incident. We highly recommend taking in this activity, it is well worth your time.

Great choice for beginner downhill mountain bike riders

Perfect beginner downhill bike from the national park. The crew was very experienced and gave good recommendations and made sure that safety was the main priority. At the end, there was an excellent Thai lunch at the lake. Highly recommended.

Real Mountain Biking

Ok, so first off I can’t review any of their regularly scheduled tours cause the Royal Princess was in the park the day we rode. That meant that we were not allowed on the trails we should have gone on. The guides adjusted! It did mean that the entire group (beginners and all) did the same ride. We ended up on a longer ride, more uphill but of course you always have to come down. The trail hadn’t been used in a while and some spots were washed out, but 95% or more of the trails were rideable (for an experienced rider). We had some Jeep trails, some really old Jeep trails that had turned into single track, and some true single track. I have a feeling this is quite typical of the trails in the forest. I had a blast, the other riders that day also had a blast. I would definitely do another ride with these guys. The guides speak English, have a sense of humour, and obviously all are friends. They took care of us and had fun doing it. The bikes are either Trek or Kaze. I rode the Kaze, all had deore rear derailleurs and mine was in great shape. All had hydraulic disc brakes as well. I loved my bike, well balanced and responsive.
