Modéré

Mostly easy walking of 3 to 8 km a day on temple paths and village lanes, with uneven steps at Kuang Si, a long, steep stone stairway at Wat Phou and steep stairs at Angkor. Day 8 is an optional flat cycle of about 15 km on Don Khone, with a tuk-tuk for anyone who prefers it. Heat and humidity add more than distance; every demanding part can be sat out.

Arrive in Luang Prabang

Luang Prabang International Airport to your hotel in the old town

  • Welcome dinner
  • Nuit : Luang Prabang
  • Environ 15 min de route

Fly into Luang Prabang International Airport (LPQ), about 4 km from the old town, where a driver meets you after immigration for the short drive in. Luang Prabang sits on a narrow peninsula where the Nam Khan runs into the Mekong, and the whole town, with its gilded monasteries and shuttered colonial shophouses, has been on the UNESCO World Heritage list since 1995.

Soir

If you land early, walk down to the Nam Khan and cross the old steel bridge on its narrow plank walkway for the view back over the rooftops, or climb Mount Phousi for sunset over the river. In the early evening your See Sight Tours guide meets the group for a short briefing on the twelve days ahead: the train, the two flights, the border and what to pack for the islands. Then we walk to dinner together at a Lao restaurant in the old town. Plan to land by mid-afternoon; the exact briefing time is sent with your final itinerary.

Faune et météo : November to February is the cool, dry season: warm days, chilly mornings in the north and on the Bolaven Plateau, and little rain. The Khone falls are at their fullest early in the season, and the dolphins at Kampi are easier to see as the river drops.

Questions

What does the price include?

Eleven nights in hotels and lodges, 11 breakfasts, 10 lunches and 3 dinners, both train legs and both domestic flights, airport transfers, a private vehicle and driver in each country, boats to Don Khone and to the dolphins, your See Sight Tours guide throughout, local guides, and every visit in the day plan, including a 3-day Angkor pass.

How big is the group, and who leads it?

The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests. A See Sight Tours guide travels with you from Luang Prabang to Siem Reap, and local guides join where sites require them, including a Cambodian guide at Tuol Sleng and at Angkor.

How fit do I need to be?

Moderate. Most days are 3 to 8 km of easy walking, made harder by heat. The steep parts are the stairway at Wat Phou, the trail beside Kuang Si and the stairs at Angkor, and each has an easier option. The bike ride on Don Khone is flat and a tuk-tuk can replace it.

I am travelling solo. What does a single room cost?

A room of your own is from CAD 490 more, shown before you book with no surprise at checkout. If you would rather share, ask us and we will try to pair you with another solo guest of the same sex; if we cannot, you only pay the supplement if you choose your own room.

When is the best time to go?

November to February. It is the cool, dry season, with warm days, cool mornings in Luang Prabang and on the Bolaven Plateau, and little rain. The Khone falls are fullest early in the season. From March to May it is very hot, and from June to October the rains make some roads slow.

Do I need visas for Laos and Cambodia?

Most visitors, Canadians included, need both. For Laos, apply for an e-visa or buy a visa on arrival at Luang Prabang airport. For Cambodia, we confirm when you book whether the e-visa is accepted at the Trapeang Kriel land border or whether you buy the visa there. Bring US dollars and a passport photo.

What is the land border like?

Quiet. The Nong Nok Khiene and Trapeang Kriel crossing sees few travellers, and your guide walks you through both sides, which usually takes about an hour. Small unofficial fees have been reported at this crossing in the past; we brief you on current practice before you go.

Will we see dolphins at the 4,000 Islands?

No, and we do not promise it. The Irrawaddy dolphins of the cross-border pool below Don Khone were reported gone in 2022. We look for them instead at Kampi near Kratie, in Cambodia, where a small population survives. Sightings there are likely in the dry season but never guaranteed.

Why only one night in Siem Reap?

Eleven nights could not cover the whole river and two nights at Angkor. You get Ta Prohm on the afternoon you arrive and a sunrise and morning at Angkor Wat and the Bayon. For more time, stay on after the trip and we can arrange extra nights and a guide, or see our Cambodia trip.

Can I travel on my own dates?

Yes. Besides the small group, the trip comes as a private trip for your party only, on a date you choose. If you would rather travel independently, ask us from the dates section for a quote: we can book the same hotels, trains, flights, drivers and local guides for you.

How does booking work?

Choose a start date and request to book. We check the hotels, trains and flights and confirm your trip within 24 hours. No payment is taken until then. Prices are per person sharing a room, with taxes, starting from CAD 2,895 for the small group.
