3 Three-Day Trips in Laos to Build a Day Around

1.3-Day Cultural Remote Trek With Homestay

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 9 reviews · 3 days · from $360Our pick

Spend three days walking jungle trails, rice paddies, and mountain paths north of Luang Prabang. You will cross rivers by local boat, sleep in simple Hmong and Khmu homestays, share meals with village families, and learn about rural life from an English-speaking guide. Guides Aroun and Chan have led this route.

“Absoluut een van de hoogtepunten van onze reis. Je krijgt een beeld van het plattelands leven zoals dat waarschijnlijk honderd jaar geleden ook al geleefd werd. Gids, Chan van tigertrails deed het fantastisch en had veel te vertellen over de verschillende hillttribe mensen, rituelen, planten en dieren. Tracks zijn goed te doen sommige stukken pittig vooral als het 37°C is Overnachten bij de mensen thuis is zeer eenvoudig maar een belevenins en een kans wat meer van de manier van het leven daar mee te maken.”
