About this experience

Skip the beach and enjoy biking tour of Phuket! Test your limits as an 18km route around the tropical haven's countryside - a challenge made even better by your tour's stops along the road. Mountain bike and gear up with a safety helmet before taking off into the wild. Start your journey at the plantations nearby, where rubber and pineapples are produced by the locals. Watch local life in motion as you make your way to the National Park in the heart of the jungle. Take a short break at the reserves and fill up on local favorites before your tour carries on to The Gibbon Rehabilitation Project. Stop by this sanctuary for a chance encounter with the resident gibbons and other exotic animals. Catch glimpses of their cream-colored fur as they jump back and forth in between the high trees. After your stops at the local natural attractions, move along to the bayside area. Enjoy the view of Phuket's gorgeous coastline as you munch on tropical fruits at the end of your tour.
