Alms Giving Experience & Kuang Si Waterfall

Anong is the best tour guide ever! He is very friendly and kind. He also took a lot of good picture for us during the alms giving. He explained a lot of information about alms giving and the history of Laos to us. It makes us learned more about the culture. He also took us to the morning market and we had a coffee in front of the Mekong River. It was a really really good experience. Anong is the best!!!

would have been nice if we were informed beforehand of scammers in the streets that would take you for the almsgiving experience.we thought we the guide just came to pick us up early but apparently a random lady went to our hotel twice to pick us up and charged as 200k kip instead.

Although it was the same day, it was actually separated into the two time slots on the left, and it was led by someone else. Giving experience: Although it was mistaken to be late, the Haocai tour guides were kind enough to teach me the etiquette of how to give alms again, and helped me to take pictures, so that we can make it from dark to light. Shougonglol Guanxi Waterfall: The waterfall has a green lake, so clean and beautiful. With the sunshine on the day, it seems to go to the left fairyland! I am allowed to change my swimsuit to soak in the water to eat the feet of the fish, which feels superb. (Swimsuit without straps doesn’t matter, you have to buy it before entering)

Such a great experience for Alms giving.. however for the transfer to Kuangsi Waterfall.. it is terrible as we expect it should be minivan for the 1 hour journey.. but end up traveled in Tuk Tuk and we have to squeeze total 12 persons on it.. my hand and leg were being under the hot sun for both journeys to and from the waterfall.. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

alms giving was a fantastic opportunity to learn the culture. The guide named Coffee was so nice, she has inspired us a lot during the morning session not only by alms giving but also guiding morning market. Part of the road to the waterfall was under construction therefore we felt a bit big turbulence, but worthwhile going to the waterfall, which was nice to see and to swim. Overall very organized nice tour even we booked just one day before the tour.

Alms giving was great and will be good if the tuktuk came with a bigger capacity instead of cramping a combined group of 5 adults (3 whom are of bigger built). Coach service (vehicle no 0170) went along to pick up adhoc passengers (paying cash to the driver). The mini coach was stuffed to the maximum capacity that some where unhappy to be seated on extension seat which caused some delay on the returning trip. Aircon also not working well and too stuffy with so many people

Anong guided us and he really went out of his way! Not only did we do the alms giving in the morning but he also gave us a tour at the morning market and recommended the local food! I can’t ask for a better day to spend at Luang Prabang!

It was good and a fascinating experience. I personally don't like that it's so touristy. Otherwise, tour guides were good and communicative with us.

I'm glad we went with a tour guide to the alms giving ceremony so that we can learn the etiquette and respect the culture. Our guide, Mr Phai, was insightful and showed us around the morning market after the ceremony. We took a nap before heading to the falls, which were beautiful. We hiked around the falls - wear sturdy shoes as some areas are slippery.

It is a very worthwhile event, but you can also visit as an onlooker and stay in Long Po Bang for three nights. I go to see it every morning. I recommend everyone to see it.
