Pak Ou Caves & Kuang Si Falls

Visit 2 natural highlights in 1 day, cruise the Mekong on the morning, enjoy your afternoon swimming in turquoise water

Begin your day with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel before joining a small group for a scenic cruise along the majestic Mekong River. As the boat glides through peaceful waters and dramatic limestone landscapes, you’ll head toward the sacred Pak Ou Caves — a spiritual treasure filled with thousands of Buddha images left by devoted pilgrims over centuries. This mystical site, set against towering cliffs at the meeting point of the Mekong and the Nam Ou River, offers breathtaking views and a truly serene atmosphere.

On the return journey, stop at the charming riverside village of Ban Xanghai, famous for its traditional Lao rice wine. Discover the local distillation process and enjoy a taste of this unique cultural speciality.

After returning to town for lunch, continue your adventure with a scenic drive through lush countryside to the spectacular Kuang Si Falls. Here, turquoise pools cascade through the forest, inviting you to cool off with a refreshing swim or explore shaded jungle trails at your own pace.

By late afternoon, relax as you’re transferred back to the heart of the city, where you’ll be dropped off near the vibrant Night Market — the perfect place to end a memorable day of discovery.

* Lunch (normal set):
Mekong Weed, Luangprabang Chili Sauce, Luangprabang Sausage, Spinach soup with pork or chicken meatball, Sticky rice and Sweet green noodle in coconut milk.
We can accommodate a set for vegetarian.
