Amazing adventure trip in Laos, made especially great for being there during Lao New Year Celebrations. Organisation in advance, bookings and communications were excellent thanks to Steve. On arrival in Luang Prabang, local guide Phonsie provided first class service. He is most knowledgeable and so proud of Lao culture and history - the tour of temples and museums in Luang Prabang was very informative.
Equally, the time in Luang Namtha and the National Park was brilliantly led by Onh who took great care of us along with the local guide Mr Sing. All first class and they were able to tailor the hike to meet our requirements.

Lovely, clean - just outside the main street so a little quieter but only one block from the start of the main street and the night market. Amazing breakfasts, large and clean rooms.

Hi Saul & Andrew,
Thanks so much for the kind words. Much appreciated. I did enjoy your photos and see you really immersed yourselves in Laos, not sure during the New Year celebrations but also in local markets and during the challenging hike.
I will also pass on your comments to the guides as I can tell they did a good job in keeping you happy and helping understand Laos better.
Looking forward to your next trip and I'm sure Kimkim will have an expert in that destination to provide another memorable journey.
Best regards,
Steve.
