Day 1
Phuket hotel pick-up - Koh Yao Islands
After leaving Phuket, you will quickly reach the coast at Bang Rong. Here, after loading your bike and other belongings, you will board a typical boat and depart for the scenic, one-hour long ride to Koh Yao Noi. Upon arrival on the island, you will visit some local islanders specializing in Batik paintings, before reaching your accommodation: beautiful bungalows scenically perched on the hillside. After lunch, you will get on your bike and ride around the island through its circular, 18-km trial with an off-road, more adventurous option for the bravest ones! Having successfully circumnavigated the island, you have earned the right to sit by the ocean at a seafood restaurant where spectacular sunset views can be admired. Nightly transfer to the hotel.

Day 2
Koh Yao Islands
Local sunrises are well worth an early wake-up alarm. You will have breakfast and bike to the 10-km away pier where a typical "long tail" boat will be boarded to Koh Yao Yai Island. Here, you will bike through a scenic route (partially with off-road sections) made of paddy fields and fantastic ocean views. Lunch in a beach-side restaurant, followed by the bike ride back to your resort, with the in-between boat interlude taking you back to Koh Yao Noi Island. Today you will enjoy dinner in an intimate local restaurant at a small nearby village.
