Adventure on a Thai Blue Moon

Lunar Eclipse Coincides With Thailand Multi-sport Adventure

BikeHike Adventures anticipate a lunar eclipse to coincide with their December 2011 – 10th to 20th – departure of the Adventure Siam trip in Thailand.

Unlike solar eclipses, this lunar eclipse will be completely safe to watch. Opportunities to pair such interstellar events with immersive outdoor activities are both rare and special.

The Full-Moon party has become a monthly fixture in Thailand.

The skies become all the more significant as Thailand observes a Lunar eclipse on December 10th, Day-1 of BikeHike’s Adventure Siam.

Active travellers will be able to view the eclipse with unaided eyes before embarking on an-Day multi-sport adventure. Click here for details.

This special celestial offering on BikeHike’s Northern Thailand adventure is paired with five days of biking through remote countryside villages, elephant riding through the hills of Chiang Rai, hiking in Doi Mae Salong through hill tribe villages and kayaking to a riverside town near the Myanmar border.

The trip cost starts at approximately £1700 ($2699 USD: land).
