Great tour!
We had a fantastic tour with Vone. Being a former Buddhist monk he was very knowledgeable about Buddhism which made our visit to the Pak Ou Caves more informative. Great tour if you want to see the caves and waterfalls in one day!

Our tour was great. Kayaking on the Mekong was a great and memorable experience. Excellent way to get to Pak Ou which was also a great experience.

A very beautiful experience kayaking on the Mekong River.
Visiting and swimming at the waterfalls was stunning.
A walk through a traditional village was also a lovely experience.
A compact package that has it all and is ideal for those who only have a few days available.

Really lovely time kayaking on the Mekong in the morning, showers & towels provided before a very good buffet with a lot of different options for lunch. Then headed to the waterfall where you have plenty of time to swim, you’re not staying with your group so it feels like your own holiday if you want to.

Such a cool day. The falls were beautiful but hands down chilling on the boat cruising down the Mekong was our favorite part.

Great fun tour
A great experience. The kayaking wasn’t easy but it wasn’t far and it was amazing scenery! We also were really luck and we were the only two on the trip which made it very special. An extra treat was the chance to meet elephants at the end of the trip over lunch and feed them

Great tour. There are LOTS of steps and inclines involved everywhere we went, so that is something to consider. Altogether a great day!

Brilliant day
This is just a great day. If you choose the elephants over the kayaking it's the same. Great guides, the best lunch I've had on any tour. And lots of remarkable things to see. Can't recommend it enough

It was long day, but a lot of variety and incredibly beautiful views. The falls were among the best in the world, and certainly more enjoyable

Up the Mekong
This was even better than I expected! The tour allocates seating at table and I had very interesting fellow travellers, along with the rest of the passengers. Well organised and helpful crew. Interesting visits arranged to Karen and Hmong villages plus Buddhist caves etc. Excellent views from the boat. The day was scheduled so that you could relax but also time never dragged. Initial booking was helpful and efficient. Recommended hotel was great.

When to visit

A must for lovers of history, culture, and river cruising, the Pak Ou Caves are a Luang Prabang favorite for good reason.
There are simple bathrooms at the caves, usable for a small fee.
The Pak Ou Caves are a religious site and on the chilly side. Long pants and covered shoulders will improve the experience all around.
Both upper and lower caves are accessed by steps, which can get slippery during the rainy season.
If visiting the upper cave, you’ll need a flashlight—bring one (or install an app).
