Southern Laos Modules

Authentic, untouched and very green is probably the best way to describe this part of Laos. If you have some time left at the end of your trip through the North and would like to get a taste of 'pure' Laos, then we can certainly recommend visiting the south of the country. From Luang Prabang or Vientiane you can fly to the small town of Pakse, the starting point of several of our southern modules. Explore the thundering waterfalls in the rainforests of the Bolaven Plateau and the many small islands in the mighty Mekong River.
