Mention code 6068182 | | Intrepid Travel | | | | Day | Destination | Description | | Day 1 | Hanoi | Shaded boulevards, public parks and blocks of ochre buildings are telling remainders of a French colonial past, but Hanoi hums with the bustle of a modern city. | | Day 2 | Vinh | Spend a night in the border town of Vinh, checking out the market for fresh Vietnamese dinner options. | | Days 3-5 | Vientiane | Slow down to the pace of sleepy Vientiane, where the morning market stays open all day and dusty riverside paths are packed with friendly children, dogs and chickens. A great way to round off a day of sightseeing is by dining at one of the many stilt restaurants set up on the Mekong. | | Days 6-7 | Vang Vieng | Be wowed by the gorgeous setting of Vang Vieng, surrounded by stunning limestone karst mountains. Relax in a chilled-out cafe or dive into the river to escape the heat. | | Days 8-10 | Luang Prabang | The jewel in charming Laos' crown, Luang Prabang is bursting at the seams with temples small and large. Climb to the top of Mt Phousi at sunset for magical views over the town or hop onto a songthaew to visit the gorgeous Kuang Si falls. | | Day 11 | Pak Beng/Mekong River | Float gently down the Mekong on a 2 day riverboat journey, travelling with local passengers and docking at tiny Pak Beng for the night. | | Day 12 | Huay Xai/Mekong River | Explore the tiny village of Huay Xai and maybe take a stroll out into the surrounding countryside for a glimpse of Laos rural life. | | Days 13-14 | Chiang Mai | Home to over 300 temples and a massive night market, Chiang Mai has plenty to see and do. Indulge in a traditional Thai massage, take a lesson at a cooking school or even learn the secrets of kick-boxing. |
