    Memorable day trip with a genuine nice guide

    PHILIP_A, Apr 2026
    Nice day trip with a nice van, friendly and professional guide. Helpful and made our tour visits special and memorable. Recommended.

    Worth the long day.

    Grant_H, Apr 2026
    This tour was 12.5 hours long but worth it. There were only 2 of us (seperately) on the tour, and i'm glad the other guy also chose to do the balloon ride, or i'd have felt guilty keeping him waiting! The viewpoint climb was tough, 40 mins of steps and ramps in 36c heat, so be prepared for it. Great view, despite the haze made it worth the sweat! Blue Lagoon was a well paced stop, allowing for a swim, lunch, or just people watch! The cave was well worth it and the temple stop was brief, but enough. The hot air balloon, pricey, but worth it in my opinion! Having done this trip, i felt i'd seen enough of Vang Vieng, so good option if you dont have time in your itnerary for a layover there. Punch the guide was very good, very communicative and caring. He even supplied juice snd water for the climb and assisted us with ordering and buying stuff. Expensive day but a once in a lifetime experience!

    Vang Vieng day tour.

    Excellent day tour with a good guide. The trek up the mountain was a bit daunting but managed to do it. Also done a boat trip and a hot air balloon ride in the afternoon.

    Challenging but great

    Make sure to bring change clothes/shoes for the viewpoint. Very challenging ascent, partly muddy. But it's fun. Gao with driver Nan were great, thank you.
