Review for: Luang Prabang Pak Ou Cave & Kuang Si Waterfall Full-Day Tour

Included pickup from your hotel/accom and we were transferred to shared vans. itinerary is packed the whole day, from visit to village to Kuang Si waterfalls, then lunch - with opportunity to feed elephant, then transfer to boat ride toward Pak Ou Caves. Last stop at Wine Village is also a great walk. We chanced upon strong wind and rain showers, but we had sighting of rainbow. Totally good day trip!

Luang Prabang is the most famous tourist spot in Laos. We purchased a whole day trip including KUANGSI WATERFALL, the elephant preserve park for lunch buffet(not circus purpose), Pak Ou cave with seeing a fantastic canyon landscape on the boat. Finally we went back to the Luang Prabang downtown directly by taking the boat. The whole trip tempo was very relax which made each one of us really chill and enjoyable! We really recommend it!

The trip was smooth, on time. Everything was covered. We got Lao beer on the Mekong cruise for free. highly recommended. the only thing I want to change was the lunch. I wish to try something more local.

Booking this tour was worth it. Instead of doing this DIY, this brought together all scenic spots in Luang Prabang in one trip. our guides Pong and Tay were very accommodating. Tay in particular was very friendly and demonstrated his excellent English communications skills. Both shared a lot of stories which made the trip very worthwhile. Must recommend!

In the morning, we will first visit the waterfall, passing through the Hmong Cultural Village. Upon arrival at the waterfall, it is recommended to head straight up to the upper-level natural pool for a swim before anyone else gets there, which makes for great photos. Afterward, you can slowly walk back down the mountain to take more pictures. The Asiatic black bear sanctuary is located right within this attraction. Next, we will take a vehicle to the elephant sanctuary for lunch, featuring an all-you-can-eat buffet of drinks and grilled skewers, which is very delicious. However, it was heartbreaking to see how accustomed the elephants in the park are to tourists taking photos... The park also offers paid elephant riding services, which is quite sad 💔. After lunch, we will take a boat to the Pak Ou Caves. Following the visit, we will take another boat to the Whisky Village (quite boring, you can think of it as a place pushing liquor sales, though there is no pressure to buy). Finally, we will take a 90-minute boat ride back to the Luang Prabang riverbank, where vans will be waiting to transport us back to the hotel.

Full day of adventures with lunch included. The guide didn't do much. It was basically self guided tour with tickets and transportation. I recommend taking the right side to climb up to the top, and pay extra to see the tree house. Then take the left side stairs to go down.

We really enjoyed the trip. Everything ran smoothly and was very well organized. There was enough time at each stop, which we really appreciated. The lunch was delicious. The waterfalls, the boat ride, the cave, and the elephants — the whole day was simply fantastic. The guides were excellent. I highly recommend this tour

I had a great day seeing the waterfall and the cave. We also made a stop at a traditional village and whiskey shop. Our guide (mr. Pong) was very friendly, funny and informative and made the trip unforgettable. Lunch was a buffet including drinks and ice! Also we were provided with water and a drink on the boat back. If you want to see more than Luang Prabang alone, this trip is great.

The tour itself was great! You got to do your own thing once you got to the locations and the spots were really nice. The boat ride in the morning was really cold so make sure to bring a jacket, but we did have to wait a long time for all the people from different tours to get on the boat. It also took the driver 20 extra minutes past the pickup time to arrive. That wasn't great, but our tour guide was very nice and funny.
