Colonial mansions, tree-lined boulevards and Buddhist
temples make Vientiane a charming town on the banks of the
mighty Mekong River. The former royal capital of Luang
Prabang never fails to enchant visitors with its abundance
of temples, faded French architecture and its gentle
friendly people. An additional highlight is the famous Plan
of Jars in Xieng Khouang.

We start from Vientiane to the limestone outcrops unchanged
for century in Vang Vieng, visit the beautiful town of Luang
Prabang. Then travel right around the north of Laos to
Oudomxay, Nong Khoiw and then cruises up the mighty Mekong
River. We venture into northern Laos which is home to a wide
array of hill tribe group including Dao, Hmong, Khmu and
Akha and use a wide variety of local transport , including
bus, truck, and boat. This trip is strenuous as we drive
through the area less visited. But it is a great chance to
encounter rarely visited minorities people. The trip ends at
Houei Say pier – border between Laos and Thailand. |

This new adventurous trip is a perfect way to explore the
very best of northern Laos. Trekking through the Nam Ha
National Biodiversity Conservation Area, we have chance to
explore the primary forest and meet with different ethnic
minorities who have a colorful history and an interesting
culture in the north of Laos. Then we cruise on Nam Ou river
and visit the magnificent temples of Luang Prabang before
explore the picturesque landscape of quiet water and the
limestone outcrops unchanged for century in Vang Vieng.
