This itinerary is a more classic exploration of the Southern part of Laos, starting with the Bolaven Plateau and its magic waterfalls, just like if water was falling from the sky in the middle of the jungle. Then from Champasak where the hotel is located, you will also explore the old colonial town, Don Khone for the 4,000 famous islands of the lower Mekong, sometimes by boat, by 4WD or by bicycle. A slow journey around the Mekong, source of food and water, social center for the settlements along its banks, the river plays an essential role in the life of People in Laos – it is also called locally” The Mother of Waters”
Luang Prabang, the ancient capital of Luang Prabang Province in northern Laos, lies in a valley at the confluence of the Mekong and Nam Khan rivers. Inhabited for thousands of years, it was the royal capital of the country until 1975. It’s known for its many Buddhist temples, including the gilded Wat Xieng Thong, dating to the 16th century, and Wat Mai, once the residence of the head of Laotian Buddhism.
