Your trip begins with an introduction to Lao culture with a sunset game of petanque. You'll join the locals near the riverside for a fun, interactive game while enjoying Lao snacks and drinks together. The smiles and laughs of the villagers is a welcoming and memorable start to your Laos package tour.

A full day of your Laos tour will be spent cruising around the town by electric bike. These eco-friendly, rechargeable bikes are a quiet and relaxing way to sightsee along the quiet city streets. Your will stop at several non-profit organizations which are working to preserve the culture and heritage of Lao and learn how you can contribute to their services. 

An integral part of responsible travel is learning about and respecting the local culture. Our Laos tour ensures that you gain an understanding and appreciation of Lao traditions through several ceremonies. You will be blessed in a baci ceremony, make merit with villagers in the early morning and have a chance to witness a performance of traditional dance, memorable highlights of your Laos tour.  

Moving beyond the city center, this Laos tour also includes excursions to the beautiful rural areas around Luang Prabang including a boat trip along the Mekong River to the Pak Ou Caves. You'll also spend a morning at the Kuang Si Waterfalls, where turquoise pools, cascading waters and leafy jungles form a tranquil retreat. Near the falls you will visit a rescue center for the endangered sunbears, which are a target for regional poachers, as well as several traditional hilltribe villages.

We also offer you the chance to make a positive impact on the rural youth via book donation at a local school. Many children in Laos do not have access to reading materials and the excitement they will show when receiving their books is sure to bring a smile to your face and leave you with fond memories of your Laos tour.

Responsible Travel: This tour combines several elements of Responsible Travel: an eco-friendly city tour, opportunities for donations to local charities and participation in traditional ceremonies for better understanding of the Lao culture.
