Welcome to Laos, the Land of a Million Elephants, and the UNESCO World Heritage town of Luang Prabang. Upon arrival you will be met by your local guide and transferred to your hotel.
We’ll pick you up at the airport and take you to your hotel. Our city tour include visits to Wat Sisaket with its thousands of miniature Buddha statues; Wat Prakeo, the former royal temple that now serves as a national museum of religious objects; Wat Simuang, the site of the city pillar and home of the guardian spirit of Vientiane; the famous Pha That Luang, the most important national monument in Laos and a symbol of both the Buddhist religion and Laos sovereignty and Patuxai, a large monument reminiscent of the Arc de Triumphe in Paris. You’re free to explore this capital city before we head for a local restaurant to admire Laos’s cultural show while enjoying delicious local cuisine.
We’ll make our way to Nam Ngum Lake, a huge reservoir created by damming the Nam Ngum River, stopping over at Ban Keun, which is famous for its salt extraction plant and a village of local Laos rice wine whiskey distillation. After lunch, we embark on a long tail boat visiting fisherman villages in various islets and take a short walk to explore the lifestyle of the local fishermen. We’ll then head back to the capital city and have dinner at a local restaurant.
After breakfast, free at leisure till time to depart to your next destination.
