Mekong Elephant Park Sanctuary
Animal protection organization
👍👍 Wonderful experience when we stayed two nights and one day in the park. I’m normally not a big fan of animals park but this is really an exceptional project with very passionate and courageous people. We loved staying in the forest overnight with much more wildlife than in most places in Laos. The L...

Elephant Conservation Center, Laos
Nature preserve
👍 My rating is a combination of 5/5 stars for their elephant care and 2/5 for the accomodation etc. I rounded the 3.5 stars up.
To see the once captive animals back in nature, trying to adapt again, is marvelous. I think the work done here for elephants and the environment they need is a very good th...

👍👍 Wow what a lovely experience.
3 course meal on a beautiful spacious boat going down the Mekong river at sunset.

Big Pha Ngern View Point Top
Hiking area
👍👍 Very cool hike!!
The lower view point was a bit more crowded since it is more instagramable :)
The path to the peak got a bit steeper and more rough after that.
At the top there is a refuge with an amazing 360 view - and all for myself!
100% recommended !!

Phadeng Peak Viewpoint
Scenic spot
👍👍 It’s an easy hike compared to the other viewpoints in the area. That being said we are not great hiking people so we had to pull ourselves to climb it and it’s a good 35 minutes to the top. Coming down is much easier though. There is a mid way break point as well. They have washrooms at the top. Car...

Ock Pop Tok Living Craft Centre
Craft store
👍👍 A great place working for a great cause. Very educational and the tour is free (although there was no guide available when I went).
I did a half day silk weaving workshop which was fun and I was able to make the perfect souvenir. It was affordable and I learned a lot about weaving. The master weave...

The cruise sets sail at 17:30 (not sure if every day) for 2 hours and costs 100k for an adult and 50k for a child.
An interesting point in the c...

Discovering Laos
Tour operator
👍👍 As a budget traveler I came here recommended by another budget traveler.
The owner is kind and explains the trekking quite well, as we wanted to get as much informed as we could be in our first time at the jungle.
Now to the action. A tuk-tuk picked us up and dropped us in the starting point ~30mi...

The Art House Cafe
Cafe
👍👍 Nice place. Was packed on the weekend. I tried the spring rolls (better than average) and coffee. Service is also good. Owner/manager made an extra effort to ensure we were happy customers. Enjoy the art displayed on the walls, too, which is available for purchase.

UXO Lao Visitor Center
History museum
👍👍 It is difficult to bear what this wonderful country had to suffer, while the world public on the whole didn't notice anything about it and until today largely knows nothing about it. Seen in this way, it is a sad but very important place for enlightenment. Thanks for your important work!

Nam Xay Viewpoint
Observation deck
👍👍 Very difficult to trek because of the broken way to reach. It took me like more than an hour to reach as I am not an expert in trekking. The main reason was to fly a drone from here. The views from here are breathtaking and tremendous. If you come to this trek do take plenty of water with you. Gener...

The Rock Viewpoint
Tourist attraction
👍 The view is not bad. But guess the selling point if the zipline. You can sip across to the other side of the mountain and do some climbing before getting back. There are 3 options,2 hours, half a day or full day, costing $30, $60 and $90. Or you can take a walk for 50,000kip ($2.50) like what I did...
