Itinerario
Recogida en su alojamiento a primera hora de la mañana alrededor de las 5:15 a.m. de marzo a octubre y a las 5:45 de noviembre a febrero. Nos levantamos temprano para observar la procesión del amanecer de los monjes que reciben limosnas y la experiencia de ofrecer comida a los monjes. Morning Alms (Sai Bat) es una tradición de larga data en la cultura budista de Laos, y es muy exclusiva de Laos. Laos es la única nación budista que aún conserva la procesión.
Después de la limosna de la mañana, visitamos el mercado matutino de Luang Prabang. El mercado que recubre un par de calles tranquilas cerca del Palacio Real, comienza temprano y termina a media mañana. Se instala a lo largo de un par de calles laterales al lado de uno de los muchos Wats de la ciudad. Un carnicero y algunos de los puestos más turísticos tienen mesas reales para sus productos. Pero la mayoría de los vendedores, que venden desde arroz hasta verduras frescas, pescado al vapor, ranas y cualquier otra cosa que pueda ser la pesca del día, simplemente se instalan en el suelo.
Luang Prabang, designado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO por su combinación única de influencias coloniales tradicionales de Laos y europeos en su arquitectura y cultura, fue la capital del reino Lane Xang de los siglos XIV a XVI, así como el centro de culto budista en la región. El casco antiguo ubicado en una península en la confluencia de los ríos Mekong y Nam Khan, rodeado de verdes montañas, ofrece una belleza natural que se complementa con la artesanía de los palacios, templos y casas tradicionales de Louangphrabang.
Un pequeño parque en la punta de la península de Luang Prabang, donde se encuentran los ríos Mekong y Nam Khan.
Wat Xieng Thong, alguna vez conocido como "El Templo de la Ciudad Dorada", tiene una gran importancia cultural, histórica y arquitectónica. Está situada en una zona tranquila cerca de la punta de la península, en la confluencia de los ríos Mekong y Nam Khan, con una gran escalera que conduce desde el Mekong. Durante siglos se consideró la puerta ceremonial a la ciudad, a la que llegaban dignatarios visitantes y reyes que pronto serían coronados a través de estas escaleras. (Tarifa de entrada 30.000 kips)
El templo fue construido en 1718 por el rey Kitsarath con 100.000 piedras del río Mekong. Literalmente significa "Templo de 100.000 tesoros"
[El museo está cerrado el último jueves de cada mes y no se puede visitar] El Palacio Real, que hoy es el museo nacional y fue construido por los colonialistas franceses entre 1904 y 1909, muestra una hermosa colección de artefactos y le ofrece una visión del fascinante historia y cultura de Laos. (Tarifa de entrada 60.000 kips)
El Centro de Información UXO (Orden sin explotar) muestra la devastación que Laos sigue sufriendo como resultado de la Segunda Guerra de Indochina. (cerrado sábados y domingos)
El templo budista más antiguo que data del siglo XVI, conocido por su gran estupa con cúpula de sandía (precio de entrada 30.000 kip).
El monte Phousi es una colina de 100 m de altura en el centro del casco antiguo, situada en la península entre los ríos Mekong y Nam Khan. Como punto más alto de la ciudad, cuenta con la famosa y favorita vista panorámica de la ciudad. En la cima, la brillante estupa dorada de Wat Chom Si se asienta firmemente y saluda a los visitantes de la montaña. Fue construido en 1804 durante el reinado del rey Anorouth y se ha convertido en un símbolo del significado espiritual de Luang Prabang. (Tarifa de entrada 30.000 kips)

Covered all of the sites and my guide was very knowledgable about the city, temples and culture. He recommended a fabulous restaurant.
I quit the tour in the middle of the show. The driver was doing other activities with the car, so much that we could not leave our belongings in the car, and he took a long time to catch us, which delayed us. At some point, the guide suggested picking up a tuktuk because the driver did not answer the phone, even though we hired the air-conditioned car for a private tour.
Guide was very good and show many temple. I not understand all history but it very beautiful and gold. Lunch on banana leaf was top. Thank you for good day in Laos.
"Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad you enjoyed the day in Laos with our guide. Sounds like the temples and lunch on a banana leaf were highlights 😊. Appreciate your kind words, hope to welcome you back!"
Our guide, Boun arrived promptly to collect us from our hotel and was super informative throughout the whole trip. We learned so much more than if we had ventured out alone. We visited the morning market and on the walk down the street, Boun pointed out various landmarks such as the best coffee house, the various royal palaces, the old cinema and radio station and how UNESCO help with the upkeep of many very old buildings. He pointed out many different fruits, vegetables and spices at the market and what they were all used for. We visited the Royal Palace Museum which is steeped in history and has so many artefacts which Boun was able to explain to us. Remember to take long trousers or a sarong to cover the legs and shoulders when going inside each section. You must also remove your shoes so wear socks! We then climbed up Phousi Mountain (328 steps to the top) but with stunning views over the river to the mountains beyond. A driver picked us up when we had descended again and we were provided with cool towels and bottled water before going to Wat Xiengthong (Temple of the Golden City) and our final stop was Wat Sensoukharam (Temple of 100,000 treasures) We can definitely recommend this tour!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience! 😊 We're glad Boun made your walking tour so informative and memorable. Sounds like you got a great mix of culture, history, and local insights. Thanks for the tips about the Royal Palace Museum and Phousi Mountain - will pass those on. Glad you enjoyed the tour, hope to welcome you back to Luang Prabang!"
A jam packed day...12 hours...but it was amazing. Our guide was passionate and first rate. The cruise on the Mekong was a highlight.
Our city tour in Laos with Sa was absolutely outstanding and easily one of the highlights of our entire trip. From start to finish, Sa was knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly passionate about sharing the heart and soul of Laos with us. The alms ceremony was truly unforgettable—a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will cherish forever. Sa explained the meaning and traditions behind the ceremony with such respect and depth, allowing us to participate in a way that felt authentic, meaningful, and deeply moving. It wasn’t just something we watched; it was something we genuinely felt. Throughout the city tour, Sa brought every stop to life with fascinating history, local insight, and thoughtful stories that made us see Laos through a completely different lens. The pace was perfect, the experience felt personal, and Sa was always attentive to our comfort and questions. If you are visiting Laos, booking a city tour with Sa is an absolute must. This was more than a tour—it was a cultural experience we will never forget. We cannot recommend Sa highly enough!
We’re so grateful for your positive feedback, It means the world to us that you appreciated to our team. takes pride in going above and beyond to ensure our customers always have an unforgettable experience.”
Brilliant day trip. Such a range of experiences and sights. Our guide, Boun, was very knowledgeable and interesting and the travel around the city was seamless. The lunch stop was perfect and my favourite part was learning about silk production and weaving. Great day, thank you!
😊 Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear you had a brilliant day exploring Luang Prabang with our guide Boun! 😊 It's fantastic that you enjoyed the range of experiences, sights, and seamless travel around the city. Boun's knowledge and passion for the local culture really make a difference, and we're glad you loved learning about silk production and weaving as much as you did! 🌟 If you have any more adventures in Laos, we'd love to help make them just as memorable!
I was collected bright and early for the Full City Tour. Very helpful guide, Boun, who ensured we went to a quieter area for the Alms Giving. These entailed a lot of waiting around which, while wasn't a problem, could've been planned earlier. Otherwise, all well planned and executed. Went to Phousi Hill in the morning instead of sunset which I was OK with. Very happy. All boxes ticked.
😊 Nice one! Sounds like Boun nailed the Full City Tour 🎉! Kudos for adapting to the Alms Giving wait - quieter spot was a win 👍. Swapping Phousi Hill to morning = bonus views 🌅! Glad all boxes were ticked and you had a fab day out 😄! Anything you'd change or wanna explore next in Luang Prabang?
We went for the private Luang Prabang city tour including alms giving in the morning at 5.30am, morning market, 4 hr guided tour of the sights in Luang Prabang, and a Mekong cruise. Our tour guide Thin was absolutely fantastic. Knowledgeable, he patiently answered all our questions, and best of all, managed to get us to places at quieter times. E.g. took us to the top of Mount Phousie for 12 noon in time for the beating of the big drum. On the Mekong cruise we even stopped at an elephant sanctuary for lunch where we got to feed an elephant. Beautiful sunset and a cold beer on the way back to Luang Prabang after a long day. Could not have been better.
.“Wow, thanks for the 5-star rating and review, We’re elated to hear that you found our Tour intuitive and easy to use. The team works hard to guarantee our presence is as user-friendly as possible.”
Alms giving to the monks in a respectful environment. We visited most of the Royal Palace and the major temples. A unique waterfall experience. Tony took into consideration our physical limitations and accommodated us. We had a great day!
