Over deze activiteit
Itinerary

Day 1: Bangkok

Stop At: Stray Asia, 162 Soi Rambutri, Bangkok 10200 Thailand
Welcome to Stray! Be at our Stray Shop at 3pm to meet your Tour Leader and your new travel mates for a Welcome Meeting introduction. We’ll cover how Stray works and answer any questions you have before heading to the train station to board the overnight train to Chiang Mai. The overnight sleeper train is an experience within itself for those who have never been on one before, complete with lie flat beds and a restaurant carriage.
Duration: 12 hours

No meals included on this day.
Accommodation included: Overnight sleeper train to Chiang Mai

Day 2: Arrival into Chiang Mai

Stop At: Chiang Mai Cabaret Show, Anusan Market, Chiang Mai Thailand
We arrive into Chiang Mai train station around midmorning. As the largest city in Northern Thailand, Chiang Mai is a popular place to hop off for many travellers and an amazing city full of endless activity options, such as Thai cooking classes, bike tours or Muay Thai kickboxing to name a few. Once a kingdom unto itself, there are over 300 Buddhist temples to discover and it is worth visiting the old walled city to see the Tapae Gate. In the evening, don’t miss browsing the famous night market to score a bargain or you can check out the lively music scene.
Duration: 12 hours

No meals included on this day.
Accommodation included: Guesthouse close to the city centre

Day 3: Chiang Mai

Stop At: Elephant Nature Park, 209/2 Sridom, ซอย ร่วมชัย อำเภอ แม่แตง เชียงใหม่ 50100, Thailand
Seize the day by exploring this historically rich city or venturing outside the city to discover the natural beauty of northern Thailand. Chiang Mai is the perfect base for some of Thailand’s best guided hikes and treks, as well as the top spot for adventure activities like mountain biking, abseiling and whitewater rafting. Tonight, enjoy dinner at one of the many great restaurants, then take in a ladyboy show, Muay Thai boxing or head out for a few drinks with friends.
Duration: 12 hours

Meals included:
• Breakfast
Accommodation included: Guesthouse close to the city centre

Day 4: Chiang Mai to Houay Xai

Stop At: Wat Rong Khun, Lahaul-Spiti Pa O Don Chai Subdistrict, Chiang Rai 57000 Thailand
This morning we depart Chiang Mai to head for the Thailand-Laos border. We’ll make a stop near Chiang Rai to check out the famous and intriguing White Temple (Wat Rong Khun). We stop here long enough to grab a snack, stretch our legs and take a few photos before we continue on to cross the border into Laos. Once in Laos we take a short tuk-tuk ride to the small town of Houay Xai, our stop for the night.
Duration: 12 hours

Meals included:
• Breakfast
Accommodation included: Guesthouse with views across the Mekong River

Day 5: Houay Xai to Mekong River Homestay

Stop At: Mekong River, Tha Heua 05000 Laos
Leaving Houay Xai you’ll board our private slow boat to cruise down the Mekong River to the secluded village that will host you for an overnight homestay experience. We arrive in the village in the late afternoon. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become immersed in Lao culture, where you will get a taste of traditional Lao village life by staying with a family in their home and experience a special Baci (welcoming) Ceremony, a true highlight of the trip.
Duration: 12 hours

Meals included:
• Dinner
Accommodation included: Remote village homestay along the Mekong River

Day 6: Mekong River Homestay to Luang Prabang

Stop At: Pak Ou Caves, Ban Pak-Ou 06000 Laos
We wave goodbye to the village and jump back aboard our private boat to head downriver to the famous limestone Pak Ou Caves. Pak Ou is an important pilgrimage site for Lao people, and here you will see thousands of Buddhist images that have been placed throughout the caves over hundreds of years. Back on board our boat a short trip takes us to the UNESCO World Heritage town, Luang Prabang. Luang Prabang has an old world feel that gives you the sense you’ve stepped back in time into a picturesque postcard setting.
Duration: 12 hours

Meals included:
• Breakfast
Accommodation included: Guesthouse with fan or AC private rooms close to night market

Day 7: Luang Prabang

Stop At: Kuang Si Falls, Luang Prabang 06000 Laos

Duration: 12 hours

Meals included:
• Breakfast
Accommodation included: Guesthouse with fan or AC private rooms close to night market

Day 8: Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng

Stop At: Vang Vieng Walking Street, Vang Vieng Laos
It’s an early start as we head south through mountainous terrain on one of the most scenic journeys you’ll experience on the Laos travel route. Our journey today takes us to the little riverside town Vang Vieng, formerly known as the best place to take tubing trips down the Nam Song River to visit riverside bars and indulge in cheap booze. These days you can still go tubing, but now you get to enjoy the beauty of Vang Vieng's landscape without the sound of pounding bass in the background.
Duration: 12 hours

• Breakfast
Accommodation included: Family run guesthouse in the centre of the action

Day 9: Vang Vieng

Stop At: Blue Lagoon 3, Vang Vieng Laos
With its stunning natural scenery, Vang Vieng offers ample outdoor activities to choose from. We recommend hiring a bike to explore the town and visiting the Blue Lagoon, one of the best natural swimming holes in Laos. There are also great rock climbing and kayaking options.

It's a very well-organized tour with Stray Asia. The guides are helpful and knowledgeable. About the accommodations: you stay in cheap backpacker guesthouses so don't expect anything fancy. The group is almost entirely in their early 20s. Plenty of free time and fun activities on the tour.
