Take a Laos tour with us and we can show you all the best bits and more! Sitting on the banks of the Mekong River, your adventure could start in Vientiane. The city is immersed in history, where you’ll find a mix of traditional Lao culture, French influence, and modern architecture. Head to the unique Buddha Park, where you can wander through over 200 sculptures set in tranquil gardens overlooking the river, visit the COPE centre to learn about what the people of Laos had to endure through the Vietnam war, and head to the Night Market for a spot of souvenir shopping.
You could then head north to Vang Vieng, which is known for its stunning natural landscapes of limestone mountains, lush greenery and the Nam Song River. Explore the impressive stalactite formations of the Tham Nam and Tham Phu Kham caves, kayak down the river past mountains and locals going about their day-to-day life, take a refreshing swim in the turquoise blue water at the Blue Lagoon, or for something more adventurous, hike up to the Nam Xay Viewpoint and enjoy panoramic views at the top. As well as the beautiful scenery, you’ll fall in love with the laid-back atmosphere of this Lao town!
Further north is the UNESCO World Heritage city of Luang Prabang, known as the Ancient City. Enjoy leisurely strolls through the charming streets as you pass stunning architecture and head to one of the riverside restaurants to enjoy a sundowner as the sun sets. If you’re an early riser, you could get up for the morning ritual of the local monks where you can give them food offerings – a truly stunning once in a lifetime opportunity. Visit the morning market, wander to the Royal Palace Museum or the Old Quarter, and make sure you head to the Kuang Si Waterfalls – a multi-tiered waterfall with turquoise pools and a beautiful spot for swimming.
Other popular destinations in Laos include the stunning 4,000 Islands archipelago, the ancient ‘Plain of Jars’ and Champasak – known for its natural beauty, cultural attractions and stunning waterfalls in the Bolaven Plateau. You could also combine a trip to Laos with another destination – heading to Cambodia or Thailand as well can make for an even more incredible trip!
With all this to see and much more the only thing is going to be how you plan it without missing anything but that’s where we come in, let us take that worry away so all you should focus on is falling in love with this amazing country.
Laos doesn’t have to stand alone. It also works perfectly in combination with other fascinating tours or relaxing beaches in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Malaysia.

Laos Map
Just like its surrounding countries in terms of weather, Laos is no different when it comes to being split between the wet and the dry season.
Peak and dry season is between November and April, though like Cambodia, November to February is a much more comfortable heat and looked at as the cool season. Making this the perfect time to explore the Mekong River and Bolaven Plateau as the rivers has risen.
March and April, though dry, are extremely hot and if that’s fine for you then this is a perfect time to go but if the heat is too much then the good thing about Laos is that you can travel further north and you will find it cools down due to the mountains.
Wet season then runs from May to October but again like its neighbours, even though the rain is heavy when it falls, it’s not common to rain all day. Normally known as short and sharp and more common in the afternoon, you are still able to enjoy the country as you just plan your day around it with the biggest bonus being no matter how wet it is your never really be cold!!

Asia Holiday Ideas to Inspire
Vietnam was everything I hoped it would be – beautiful, vibrant, exciting and fascinating. And the use of knowledgeable local guides was invaluable. Everything was so well organised. Considering the logistics of us staying in 5 different places everyone was there to meet and greet us and take us to and from the different places. Absolutely faultless in every respect.

Just to let you know we had an amazing time in the Philippines! It’s difficult to choose highlights as everything was fantastic. The Philippines are beautiful, rich in history with amazing food and wonderful people. Eric (our guide) was brilliant and went above and beyond. Thank you!
Philippines
Totally and literally absolutely wonderful! Being in the jungle with a fantastic guide, we thought it couldn’t get any better. And then we went to Gaya Island. Wow. This is now one of our top three hotels ever. Thank you for a truly wonderful holiday.

My friend and I have returned from a wonderful trip to Vietnam and Cambodia organised by Liam. The team on the ground, in both countries, were excellent- tour guides, drivers, hotel staff. All in all, a wonderful experience which we would both highly recommended.
Vietnam
All aspects of this trip were amazing. The accommodation – from 5* luxury to simple lodges in stunning idyllic settings. The guides – superb, super knowledgeable. The activities were different and insightful – talking with the villagers, cycling through the rice paddies, kayaking, the vespa tour. And the holiday went without a hitch – many thanks!
Vietnam
The local staff were utterly reliable and charming giving us an excellent and interesting insight into Vietnamese culture, from the vibrant culture in the cities to the peace and calm of the villages and rice fields.

Our time in the Philippines was amazing. The itinerary was perfect and it was such a reassurance to know you would take care of everything.
