THAILAND TO LAOS BY BOAT

Elephant, boat, flower, Buddhist Pagoda Festivals & art festivals celebrated year round

Visit the living wats (temples) and hill tribes of Chiang Mai.  Enjoy an elephant ride and meet the long-necked women wearing brass rings around their necks in the famed Golden Triangle area.  Feel like an explorer as you cruise down the Mekong to the Pak Ou Caves before docking at Luang Prabang, the sleepy royal capital that offers a delightful fusion of traditional Laotian architecture and stately French colonialism.  Enjoy the natural mountain scenery that surrounds Vang Vieng.  Delve into the stalls at Vientiane’s market with a variety of textiles, silver jewelry and finely made handicrafts.  Board a converted rice barge for a relaxing 2 day cruise down the Mekong.
