Laos holidays with a touch of adventure
If you’re going to escape anywhere to escape the chaos and craziness of modern life, then escape to Laos. A perfect balance of discovery and downtime - on your terms, at your tempo. A truly unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime travel experience.
Slow the pace with sunset cruises, sleepy rural backroads, backwaters and beautiful Buddhist temples, the air thick with incense. Or head to Northern Laos for mountain trekking, kayaking and adventure if you’re looking for something a little more upbeat.
Immersive holidays that give back - your chance to discover the essence of this astonishing country and its astonishing people.
Bordering Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia, why not tie in a trip to one of Laos’ amazing neighbours? One wonderful holiday; two, three or even four countries. If you can spare the time, it's the perfect way to enjoy the breadth of the Southeast Asian experience.

HANDPICKED HOTELS IN LAOS
From stylish boutique hotels to luxury lodges to overnight cruises, there’s plenty of beautiful places in Laos for you to choose from. Each with its own unique character and charm, Luang Prabang has some of the best hotels in Indochina.
Our favourites include Satri House, the former residence of Prince Souphanouvong in the heart of the old town, and The Rosewood, a beautiful, boutique French-Indochine style retreat nestling in the surrounding countryside. And with any trip to Laos surely incomplete without a river trip, we’ve found you a brilliant array of small boat overnight cruises. For something super grand, what about a spectacular riverside hotel such as Muang La Lodge and La Folie?
DISCOVER THE ESSENCE OF LAOS
Looking for a ‘less than conventional’ luxury holiday’? Then look no further than Laos. The perfect place to connect with your inner explorer. Whether breakfasting at the side of a rushing waterfall, slow river boating to Thailand, or vintage jeeping through Bolaven Plateau coffee plantations, it’s easy to feel off the beaten track. Because you are. And what better way to round off your holiday of a lifetime than with a relaxing day or two on the banks of the River Mekong in the 4000 Islands region or a quick hop to Thailand, Cambodia, or Vietnam for a ‘less than conventional’ beach hotel?
Once-in-a-Lifetime Experiences in Laos
Alluring Laos, for many the most beautiful country in Southeast Asia. 20 national parks, hundreds of wild lakes and rivers, thousands of remote river islands, and a culture as curious as it’s enchanting, make Laos the perfect place to set your inner explorer free, to discover somewhere special.
From Luang Prabang’s Buddhist temples and Vientiane’s stylish French colonial architecture, the opportunities to meet the real place and people of Laos are almost endless.
A magical, unique travel experience awaits, where you can’t fail to make memories that last a lifetime (with a little help from us, of course).
A game of petanque with the locals is an absolute must - Lao beer in hand, it's a perfect way to spend an evening.
A misty morning jeep safari in the Bolaven Plateau will reveal a side of Laos few tourists see.
Walking with elephants is an incredible and ethical way to get up close with these majestic creatures.
