Itinerary

Luang Prabang Pak Ou
At 10 a.m., your adventure begins aboard your charming river cruise ship. Settle into your cabin... more+ and get ready for four days of exploration and discovery.
Your cruise will take you upstream to explore the legendary Pak Ou Caves, home to thousands of small Buddha statues lovingly placed there by pilgrims over the centuries. From this sacred place, you can take a hike through the jungle to the local village of Ban Muang Keo. If you prefer a more leisurely approach, a short boat ride will take you to the village. Once there, you can witness the ancient tradition of distilling Lao-Lao, the famous local rice whiskey of Laos. Miss Somechan Khonpachith has perfected this art. She will not only reveal the secrets of this ancestral technique, but will also invite you to taste this iconic drink. In the afternoon, your boat will continue upriver towards Oudomxay province, passing by the Pak Ou dam construction site
