Best Places to visit in Laos
Laos remains Indochina’s final frontier – an oasis of slow living, where jungled valleys, limestone caves, and winding rivers remain largely untouched by mass tourism. Our Laos specialists have trekked through remote forests, canoed past hidden cave systems, and sailed serene waterways to discover the country’s most authentic experiences and they’ll help you design a tailor‑made itinerary to follow in their footsteps.
Once closed off to most travelers, Laos is now revealing its wonders: from the former royal capital of Luang Prabang, where golden wats stand beside colonial villas and silent monk processions wind through the dawn streets; to Vientiane, a petite riverside capital lined with faded French mansions and lively coffee shops. Beyond these cultural hubs, the landscape is endlessly green, carved by slow-flowing tributaries of the Mekong. Along your journey you’ll encounter little‑visited hill‑tribe villages, off‑grid towns, and ancient Cham temples that predate even Angkor.
Round out your adventure with unique natural and historical highlights: explore mysterious cave networks such as Viengxay, sheltering wartime stories in its chambers, visit the iconic Pak Ou Caves near Luang Prabang filled with ancient Buddha statues, or relax beside the aquamarine tiers of Kuang Si Falls.
With expert insights from our Laos team, you’ll chart a path through the country’s serene landscapes, timeless traditions, and hidden gems-ensuring every step of your journey is as meaningful as it is memorable.
