About this trip

Seven days across Laos, moving from the capital Vientiane to the old royal capital Luang Prabang. It's a gentle introduction to a country that gets overlooked next to its neighbours, with plenty of temples, rivers and quiet streets to take in.

Fully guided throughout, so the logistics are handled and you can focus on the places themselves. Good pace for families or anyone easing into travel in Southeast Asia.

What you'll do

  • Explore Vientiane's temples and riverside streets
  • Travel overland or by air to Luang Prabang
  • Wander the old town of Luang Prabang, a former royal capital
  • See monks collecting alms at dawn
  • Take in river and mountain scenery along the way
Good to know
  • Fully guided, so a good fit if you'd rather not plan logistics yourself
  • Suits families and groups travelling together
  • Focus is on culture and city exploring rather than adventure activities
