— What You Can Expect —

Discover the best of Chiang Mai’s Old City on an easy guided bike ride through
ancient temples, historic monuments, and vibrant local markets. This flexible
tour lets you choose between a peaceful morning ride or a cooler, atmospheric
evening ride, each offering a different and equally beautiful way to explore
the heart of the city. Start at the Discova Day Tour Shop, then cycle directly
into the Old City toward Tha Phae Gate, once the main trading entrance to
Chiang Mai. Continue to the historic square around the Three Kings Monument
and the Wat Intakhin (City Navel Temple), a spiritually important site marking
the symbolic center of the ancient kingdom.

The tour continues through peaceful temple grounds, stopping at several of
Chiang Mai’s most significant religious sites. Visit the impressive Wat Chedi
Luang, famous for its massive ruined chedi and ancient City Pillar. Depending
on the morning or afternoon departure, the ride also passes one of the city's
stunning temples: either Wat Chiang Man, the oldest temple in the city, or Wat
Lok Molee, known for its stunning Lanna-style wooden viharn and towering brick
stupa. Along the way, ride along the ancient moat and past sections of the
original city walls, learning how this carefully planned square fortress once
protected the capital of the Lanna Kingdom.

In the evening, temples like Wat Lok Molee and Wat Chedi Luang are beautifully
illuminated, creating a dramatic and atmospheric setting; during the morning
tour, you may encounter monks beginning their daily rituals. A stop at a local
market is included on all departures. Experience either a fresh morning market
filled with produce or a night market buzzing with street food. Your guide
will help you try a few simple snacks or fruits, giving a taste of local
flavors. Covering around 12–14 km at a relaxed pace, this tour is suitable for
most travelers, including families with older children. With insightful
commentary, iconic landmarks, and rich temple visits, this is one of the most
engaging ways to experience Chiang Mai’s history and culture before ending the
tour at Discova Day Tour Shop. If you are opting for any of our private tours,
pick up and drop off at your Chiang Mai hotel is also included.
