Travel to Laos with a specialized travel agency

Laos is one of the few countries of South East Asia still protected from mass tourism. A tailor made holiday to Laos is an authentic journey that promises unforgettable memories, exceptional encounters and adventures like no other.

Tour Laos

Secluded in the middle of South East Asia, bordered by Vietnam, Thailand and Myanmar/Burma, Laos is landlocked by its neighbours. Sometimes forgotten by tourists, Laos, the “country of a million elephants”, is truly a wonderful destination for travellers and explorers as it appears to be a land stuck in time, harbouring hidden treasures which our carefully designed itineraries both allow you to explore and discover, as well as help this country preserve and sustain its unique heritage. Laos’ rich culture and tradition is an ode to this beautiful country made up of lively cities, charming villages and untouched national parks.

Things to do in Laos

Laos is a destination offering multiple activities for people from all walks of life. For moderate level trekkers and hikers, the Annamite Mountain Range is right on your doorstep, offering incomparable landscapes and incredible discoveries. Trekking to the top of the Bolaven Plateau brings you to a remote village which is home to the semi-nomadic Hmong people who will greet you with smiles and kindness to share stories of their life here in the mountain tops. If you are looking for culture and tradition, then the ruins and temples of Laos are not to be missed. From Wat Xieng Thong, considered to be the most beautiful temple in Laos, to the famous site of Phu Champasak, Laos houses incredible temples and monasteries.

Laos and its people

Whilst Laos may offer some of the most beautiful landscapes in Asia and is where the tasty Lao Barbecue (Sindad) originates from, it is the people who make this country so special. Throughout your travels you will undoubtedly experience some heart-touching moments as you meet and interact with the people. You will find the multitude of ethnic groups in Laos have one thing in common: the hospitality and the smiles they extend to their visitors. Their beautiful kindness is deeply rooted in Laotian culture and they are all ready to share their country and stories with you.
