great organized bike tours with Big Bike Tours
I have been 2nd time to join Big Bike… I have been 2nd time to join Big Bike tours in northern Thailand. One tour dry season (bigger group) and one during rainy season (small group). Both had been awesome. Very good skilled tour guides and in rainy season our group consisted of just two participants (2 bikes) plus Noah as perfect and fast guide. We could ride as fast as our skills allowed us :-) This is the advantage during rainy season, because of small groups. I will come back soon
Response from the operator: Thank you very much, Harald, for sharing your amazing experiences with Big Bike Tours! We’re delighted to know you enjoyed both trips during different seasons and appreciated the skilled guidance. We eagerly await your next adventure!

Great riding in Thailand
The bikes are excellent, and the tour is well organised, from the airport pick-up to the return to your hotel. Great roads and magnificent countryside. Some stop activities could be replaced or changed i.e. Elephant feeding, Hill Tribe village, Lao village, but the roads are calling, the focus is on riding, that's what we are there for.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We also had a great time with you. It was cool to have you on the road and to share all the moments and activities with you. Hope to see you one day again buddy. Cheers mate

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Chiang Mai.
How much does 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand cost?
+
Prices start at $1350 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Chiang Mai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Chiang Mai is not rushed.
Is 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Chiang Mai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 72 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 21. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 72-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Chiang Mai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Chiang Mai and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 Day Motorcycle Tour (Magical Golden Triangle) from Chiang Mai, Thailand start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Chiang Mai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Chiang Mai?
+
On Outty we rank every Chiang Mai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half-Day Thai Cooking Class at Organic Farm in Chiang Mai, Full Day Thai Cooking at Farm (Chiang Mai), Thai and Akha Cooking Class in Chiang Mai. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Chiang Mai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Chiang Mai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
