I agree with the other terrible reviewer about Crank Adventures. I have sent numerous emails and inquiries about mt biking with Crank Adventures when I travel to thailand this month. I have not received one response from them. Its too bad because they look like they run pretty decent trips. Oh well, I don't know what the deal is but... More

Damian and MR. Winn very relaxing and perfect Guidance. I did several trip in the south and other operators before. Not even close comparable what these guys have worked out. If you really like a Moutain Bikier this is my big discovery and the only Guys who understand to get on single trails as much as possible. Guiding you to... More

What an experience! Damian and Mr Winn did an incredible job getting us all of the adventure and activity we could ask for. We went way off their form, and combined bamboo rafting, a village stay, an incredible zipline, and mountain biking! They made the mountain biking work for my incredibly fit husband, my not so fit 12 year old,... More

After just a few email exchanges, Damain sensed just what I was after and crafted an ideal 3-day tour for my girlfriend and me. There was no overpromising or underdelivering, and many pleasant surprises along the way. My tour was managed perfectly. Damian and assistant guide Mr. Win were a pleasure to hang out and chat with. Riding through rolling... More

We booked a last minute flight from Bangkok to Chiang Mai to take a morning cooking class and wanted to do some mountain bike riding later that afternoon before heading back to Bangkok. Crank Adventures was very accommodating and provided the 2 of us a private tour through the hills that same day. We had a fun day and our... More

I had the pleasure of doing two day trips organized by Crank Adventures. One to the Sankampaeng Hot Springs, and one to the Maesa Elephant Camp. Here's why I loved them both: - Great bikes. Unlike many other rental experiences, these bikes do not suck. - Great guides. Damien and Win were both fun, encouraging, knowledgable, friendly companions. They cheered... More

Perhaps this would have been a good experience had anyone returned any of my multiple emails to try and arrange an outing for single rider. Really inexcusable in my opinion! More

My husband and I booked a 2 night 3 day mountain biking tour with Crank Adventures for February Half term. We're both working in a school in Thailand in the sex tourist hotspot of Pattaya and fancied a bit of culture and some good single track. Damien was spot on with the organisation of the trip and really helpful before... More

We had a half day leisure cycling trip with Crank Adventure and it was the highlight of our tour to Chiangmai. My whole family, including my 71 years old dad enjoyed it very much. It was really a good family activity. We had so much fun cycling through villages and taking photos of the beautiful sceneries along the route. A... More
