What you can expect

Float down the vast Mekong River and see beautiful countryside as you head to the statue-filled Buddhist Pak Ou Caves. On the way to the sacred caves filled with golden wonders, pass traditional rural communities and hear about their specialized micro-economies from your local guide.

Board a riverboat and set off down the legendary Mekong River, the 12th longest in the world. As you drift along, absorb the scenic views of the countryside before you arrive at the spiritual Pak Ou Caves. Enter the caverns and marvel at the hundreds of statues of Buddha in various positions.

Continue by road to villages that have developed their own shrewd methods of making money. Ban Xanghai distills rice wine and Ban Xang Khong and Ban Xienglek produce handmade paper. Afterward, journey back to Luang Prabang fully relaxed from your peaceful day on one of the world's mightiest waterways.
