  • To kick of the tour, Asia Private Travels will pick you up from Luang Prabang and transfer you to Oudomxay in about 3-4 hour driving. After 30 minutes of driving, we will stop at Ban Pak Ou, a village on the Mekong River's bank, directly across from the well-known Pak Ou Sacred Caves. We crossed the river to see the location where hundreds of Buddha statues were donated by devotees.

    After that, we'll get back in the minivan and carry on our journey. You can make stops along the road to explore, take photos, wander around, and visit several ethnic villages (mainly Hmong minorities). You are headed to the 5-star resort in Oudomxay (or the nearby city of Muang La) in the afternoon.These places are nestled in paradise, contrasting an unexpected luxury resort with the surrounding jungle and villages inhabited by ethnic minorities.

    The wonderful sceneries and the services around culture, activities, and wellness are exceptional. It is known to be among the best in Laos that is promised to bring you the best stay!

The second time to Laos - a completely well-prepared trip

This was the second time I've been to Laos. The previous trip was not really lucky because of the bad weather and poor accomodation. So this time my family decided to travel back here again, with APT team. Actually we didn't really expect a lot on this trip because of the previous unluckiness. But APT team definitely surprised us! We are absolutely pleasant with their care of every details, which makes us a very memorable and perfect tour. Many thanks to APT team, you guys are really nice and professional:)

i and my mother really had some trouble with food. Lao foods and flavors are not suitable for us. So we didn't have much to eat :( But Luang Prabang is definitely beautiful and gorgeous. We had meaningful time here. This is a great choice to visit but you guys should consider whether you love the food here or not
