Hoteller i nærheden af Pak Ou Caves & Kuang Si Waterfalls
Beskrivelse
En heldagstur til Pak Ou-hulerne og Kuang Si-vandfaldene. Vi sejler fra Luang Prabang bådmolen om morgenen. Flydende langs Mekong-floden vil du blive forelsket i det smukke landskab i Luang Prabang. Stop ved en landsby "Ban Xang Hai" for at smage unik lokal riswhisky og risvin. Udforsk derefter den mystiske hule med den lokale rejseguide. Spise frokostbuffet i restauranten med udsigt over Mekong-floden. Om eftermiddagen tager vi en bil til vandfald og nyder at svømme i det kølige vand. 17.00 tager vi afsted til byen. Stop ved en Hmong-landsby undervejs. Vi møder Hmong-folk iført traditionelle klæder og ser deres lille Hmong-museum. Ankomst til byens centrum eller dit hotel kl. 6:00. Der er mulighed for at besøge vandfald om morgenen og Caves and Sunset Boat Cruise om eftermiddagen. Dette er den samme oplevelse, bortset fra at morgen- og eftermiddagsruterne er byttet om.

Rejseplan
En unik lille landsby ved bredden af Mekong-floden. Ban Xang Hai, der også er kendt som whiskyby, er berømt for deres håndværksprodukter som destillering og salg af whisky, håndvævet stof og smykker.
Disse to huler ligger ca. 25 km fra Luang Prabang, hvor Nam Ou-floden strømmer ind i Meking. Rejsen på en langsomt flytende langbåd til huler er bestemt malerisk. Motoring upriver du kan se lokalbefolkningen fiske og lytte til den glædelige svagere af børn stænk i vandet. Hulerne er æret over hele Laos og et meget populært sted for turister og pilgrimsalike. Der er omkring 4000 statuer abd statyetter i hulerne, for det meste af Buddha, mange stykk dækket med papir tynde forgyldning. Den første hule nås ved en stejl trappe fra flodens kant, mens den anden hule er lidt dybere inde i bjerget: tag en tændstik!
Kuang Si-vandfaldet, sommetider stavet Kuang Xi eller kendt som Tat Kuang Si-vandfald, er et tre niveauer vandfald ca. 29 kilometer syd for Luang Prabang. Når du når fald, kan du slappe af og nyde de storslåede naturlige omgivelser. Vandet tumler ned og kaskader forsigtigt i flere kølige, klare bassiner, hvor du kan nyde en forfriskende svømmetur. Den eventyrlystne kan gå til toppen af vandfaldene via en stejl bane, hvor en fantastisk udsigt venter på dem. Kuang Si-vandfald er også et sted, hvor et redningscenter til beskyttelse af solbjørne, den truede art, er placeret.
På vej tilbage fra vandfaldet besøger vi en Hmong-landsby. Vi går gennem landsbyen og stopper ved et lille museum bygget af landsbyboerne. Vi lærer af landsbyboerne klædt i traditionelle kostumer om deres oprindelige højlandsliv.

Fantastic whole day experience seeing Kuang Si Falls, meeting a baby elephant at Manifa sanctuary where we had a delicious lunch, visited Pak Ou caves and a whiskey village where we tasted 2 different whiskeys! Out guide Ben, was so friendly and knowledgeable, highly recommended.
Thank you for your kind word . It means a lot to me to receive such thoughtful recognition from a valued client like you. Your words of appreciation have brightened my day and motivated me to continue doing my best. I truly believe that positivity can fuel success, and your gratitude has fueled my determination to achieve even greater heights in our work together. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to collaborate with someone as talented and dedicated as tour guide . Once again, thank you for your kind words. Your support and encouragement are invaluable to me.
Beautiful day on the waterfalls and the Mekong river …. The tour guide amazing name Bon!!! He was very enthusiastic and helpful in all aspects, very caring and kind . We love him The waterfalls are breathtaking, what a beauty in Laos . Also the long tail boat on the mekong river so beautiful and peaceful .. good opportunity for a relaxing on the journey all the way to the temples on the rock formation. I really recommend this tour and the company.
An absolutely unforgettable day in Luang Prabang! Our guide, Dang, was fantastic, incredibly helpful and knowledgeable throughout the trip. Seeing the rescued bears and feeding the elephants were wonderful, heartwarming experiences. The ultimate highlight of our tour was the sunset cruise back down the Mekong River. It rained just a little bit, which rewarded us with a stunning, picture perfect double rainbow over the water. We also enjoyed visiting the village of the Hmong people. The only minor downside was the lunch. While it offered several options, the food quality wasn't the best. However, they did have an excellent cold drink selection and ice cream to make up for it. Overall, it is a highly recommended tour. LandLTravelWithAloha
Thank you so much for this beautiful review! 🌈💚We’re thrilled you had an unforgettable day with Dang — we’ll pass your kind words to him. He really loves sharing Luang Prabang with guests and we’re glad he made the day so helpful and special for you.Seeing the rescued bears, feeding the elephants at the sanctuary, visiting the Hmong village, and that sunset cruise on the Mekong sound like the perfect mix. And a double rainbow in the rain?! That’s pure Luang Prabang magic. We’re so glad you got to see it ✨Thank you also for the honest note about lunch. We’re sorry it wasn’t up to standard. We’ve shared your feedback with the restaurant team so they can improve the food quality while keeping those cold drinks and ice cream coming!We’re so glad that overall you’d highly recommend the tour. Hope the rest of your time in Laos was just as memorable, and we’d love to welcome you back someday.Warm regards,The Manifa Travel Team
This tour exceeded expectations! The falls in the morning is a MUST. You get to climb and walk at your own pace; all doable, and the winding roads towards the caves was worth it in my opinion as it was a trip lol but I am young and living through it alll! The buffet was vegan friendly and avoid the elephant if you can for their own protection :)
Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! 💚We’re so glad the tour exceeded your expectations! Kuang Si Falls in the morning really is a MUST — having time to climb, swim, and go at your own pace makes it so special. And yes, those winding roads to Pak Ou Caves are part of the adventure 😄 Glad you enjoyed the ride!Appreciate you mentioning the vegan-friendly buffet too. We always try to offer options so everyone can enjoy lunch comfortably.We also hear you on the elephants. Their wellbeing matters a lot to us. We work with sanctuaries that focus on rescue and ethical, no-ride interactions only. If you ever want info on fully observation-only programs, just ask us next time you’re in LPB.Thanks again for the 100% recommendation. Hope the rest of your travels were just as amazing!Warmly, The Manifa Travel Team
This was nice. They drop you off at the different places and give you free time to explore. It’s not a guided tour which I really liked. Lunch was at an ”elephant sanctuary” which I thought was questionable. They said that the elephants could live freely in the forest and only came to the fence for snacks. However, they were obviously trained to perform tricks for tourists, like putting a hat on a person etc.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed parts of the day, but we’re sorry that the tour did not feel as guided as you expected. This itinerary includes several stops where guests are given free time to explore independently, but our guide should still provide clear background information and context at each place. We will review this with the guide team so future guests receive better explanations about the sites, the Mekong, and the flow of the day. Regarding the elephant camp lunch stop, we would like to clarify that our elephants are not kept for circus-style performances. They live in a forest-and-river environment under the daily care of experienced mahouts, and interactions with guests are meant to be calm, limited, and closely supervised. If you saw any moment that appeared staged or inappropriate, we take that seriously and will review it with our team. Thank you again for your honest comments. They help us improve both our guiding and how we explain the elephant care model more clearly to visitors.
a very good set of activities, properly organized. it looked beautiful! Waterfall 10/10 Boat 10/10 Cave 9/10 Lunch 7/10 Transport 9/10
This was an awesome tour! The day was filled with activities and the boat ride was very peaceful. The lunch was excellent and I also was able to see and feed the elephants. Ended the day with the waterfalls, rice farm and sunset cruise. Highly recommend! The tour guide Von was great and knowledgeable.
It was a really good tour. The cruise back to Luang Prabang was out of this world with the beautiful surroundings. Enjoyed myself thoroughly, thank you.
