What a treat... Thank you Vivi and Kom - This trip was amazing. The crew [Vivi and Kom] were professional , super nice and helpful.
They looked after our group super well right from the start. They have fulfilled and surpassed our exception. We were looking for something to do out of the city of Chiang Mai and it did not disappoint.

A lovely ride in Chiang Mai - The tour was very well organized and we were taken good care of. We were received by the cheerful and lovely Vivi at the hotel from the start. She and her colleagues accompanied us throughout the tour, and made sure all of us were safe and none were not left behind. Vivi and her colleagues including Lek were also very thoughtful and amazed us with ice towels, chilled drinks, watermelons and Thai snacks when we were sweaty and thirsty.
They also brought us to a picturesquw restaurant after the tour where we had nice Thai food next to a pond and under the trees.
The other good thing about the tour was that the vans that accompanied us throughout the ride were air conditioned and in decent shape. The bikes and the helmets were also in good conditions.
As for the routing, we couldn't see the "fields of gold" because it wasn't harvest time but the place we went by was nice enough.
We enjoyed every bit of it. We joined another tour the next day and that tour paled in comparison in every aspect.

Fantastic Bike Tour with Fields of Gold - We had a fantastic half day of biking through the countryside and rice fields 45 minutes outside the city. Our guide was KOM who customized our private tour to our preferences. Even at 75 years old, we could manage the trails and hills considering the temperatures were above 100F! We highly recommend Fields of Gold for a unique Thai experience!

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.
