Journey through the beating heart of Laos, traversing the country from the serene, island-dotted waters of the far south to the timeless, gilded temples of Luang Prabang. Wander ancient Khmer ruins, navigate subterranean rivers in Kong Lor, and explore the mist-shrouded Bolaven Plateau. From prehistoric jar sites to hands-on traditional artisan craft in rural villages, this 16-day overland expedition exposes the raw beauty, deep history, and living soul of Laos.
Nong Khiaw is easily accessible from Luang Prabang but still remains the remote, stunning, mountainous landscape many travelers are looking for. This 6-day tour has been designed to take you on the most scenic trails, to the best homestays, and up and down the Nam Ou River by boat as you experience total immersion in the beauty of Nong Khiaw. We’ve designed the tour to include mixed nights in basic homestays for incredible cultural experiences and comfortable guesthouses where you can refresh with some modern comforts to reenergize for more jungle hikes well off the beaten path.
