Luang Prabang Tours and Activities

Gliding effortlessly across currents and passed pristine forests, the Luang Say boat is a purpose-built 34 metre luxury river barge, a stylish replica of the journey craft famous to these waters. Long scenic stretches of breezy, sun soaked river cruising are punctuated by visits to river-side hill tribe villages and the magical Tham Thing Caves of a Thousand Buddhas. In between the two days on the river, the Luang Say Lodge at Pakbeng offers a charming and serene riverside stay, a perfect romantic interlude in this unspoiled wilderness setting.
