The Mekong River dominates life in northern Laos – a sleepy corner of the world that ranks among Asia’s most peaceful spots. Amidst a stunning tableaux of lush green mountains punctuated by river valleys and tumbling waterfalls, guests can unwind far from the hassles and distractions of the modern world. This healing journey follows the mighty river as it flows south from the border town of Houay Xay to the royal city of Luang Prabang.

Guests will cruise slowly down the river on a private vessel, taking in the scenery and enjoying a delicious set menu. After convening with the animals at the Mekong Elephant Camp, the nature theme continues in the remote but beautiful province of Oudomxay where guests can meet with the ethnic groups that inhabit the region and relax in comfort at the romantic Muang La Resort. After a cruise along the Nam Ou River, famous for its dramatic limestone scenery, the journey concludes in Luang Prabang, the UNESCO-listed former capital of Laos.
