3 Three-Day Trips in Laos Worth Booking

1.3-Day Cultural Remote Trek With Homestay

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

Spend three days walking village trails through jungle, rice paddies, and mountain valleys north of Luang Prabang. English speaking guides such as Aroun and Chan lead small or private groups to Hmong and Khmu homestays, with local meals, boat crossings, and no-frills village life.

“A big adventure into the real Laos culture by visiting two villages of Khmu and Hmong out in a beautiful valley. We were the only two tourists in 2 months visiting the villages and the people were so welcoming and friendly and hosted us so warmly. Our guide Aroun explained us a lot about the nature and culture, it was extremely interesting and eyes opening! We stayed there over New Year’s and were so warm-heartedly invited to take part in the Khmu New Year’s celebration (sharing food with the whole community, drinking whiskey lao lao, Beerlao, playing music, dancing…). We really enjoyed it a lot and would absolutely recommend this…”
