What’s not to love about a Laos tour? One of Asia’s enchanting hidden gems, this peaceful inland nation boasts stunning natural beauty – lush green valleys are ensconced by forested mountains teeming with wildlife. Fascinating Buddhist culture is carefully juxtaposed against French colonial influence in Laos. And at the heart of it all, lies the ancient cultural capital of Luang Prabang – where the delicate scent of frangipani sweetens the air, and red-roofed temples and colonial buildings vie for attention alongside bustling markets, busy ateliers and chic homestays. For the adventurous and the culture enthusiasts alike, Laos offers endless fascination.
The highlights of your tour include lively Luang Prabang, where you will wake with the first rays of dawn to witness the ancient alms-giving ceremony of Tak Bat. Centuries-old architectural feats, charming textile villages and incredible sunsets over the Mekong River await you. Just some distance upriver from the capital, emerald waters of the Kuang Si Falls offer respite from balmy afternoons. At picturesque Vientianne, 8,000 Buddha statues lie within the oldest Siamese temple in the world, and colonial buildings lounge amid gilded pagodas.

Panoramic vistas, authentic cultural experiences and pure relaxation await you in Laos.
