Travel in Laos: A Hidden Gem of Tranquility and Tradition

Take an unforgettable journey to Southeast Asia’s hidden beauty, with Laos tours from Asia Journeys. Laos has stunningly preserved its wild nature, rich spiritual culture, and wonderful culinary adventures. Our journeys have expertly curated unique experiences which allows you to experience ancient temples like Pha That Luang and Wat Si Saket, glide along the Mekong River on a slow boat, and soak up, and interact with, the local vibe at Talat Sao and Vientiane Night Market, or the many colourful festivals we can explore by regional celebrations like Boun That Luang and Pi Mai. Outdoor lovers can quick day kayaking and trekking in Phou Khao Khouay National Park, biking in Vang Vieng, or arrange an overnight kayak trip to Thousand Islands on the Mekong river. If you are looking for something more relaxing, our trips offer safe, flexible, and extremely authentic Laos tours, allowing an experience that is very personal, culturally charged, and educational, from Luang Prabang to Vientiane.
