Luxury Mekong River Cruise | Luang Say Cruises
This adventure was made possible by Mekong River Cruises -
Cruising down the Mekong River on a luxury riverboat from Huay Xai to Luang Prabang was an amazing experience. This river cruise with Luang Say Cruises easily ranks in my top three experience of the entire trip. The northern Mekong river cruise starts on the Laos border city of Huay Xai. Crossing the border from Chiang Khong to Hauy Xi was extremely easy thanks to Luang Say Cruise's helpful staff that walked us through the entire process!
We boarded our luxury river boat around 9 a.m., and by 9:30 we were cruising down the Mekong River. After cruising down the river for a couple of hours, we were severed an amazing lunch buffet. After lunch we continued down stream until we got to a small village on the bank of the Mekong River. Our boat docked on the shore while we explored the village to learn how the local mountain people live.
After visiting the village our luxury cruise continued down river until we arrived at the Luang Say Lodge. We spent the night in a beautiful bungalow that offered amazing views of the Mekong River. That night we were served an amazing dinner, and the next morning we woke up to awesome views of the misty Mekong River.

Luang Prabang to Pak Beng Mekong Cruise
Travelling with a camera on the Shompoo Cruise Boat along the Mekong. Took the Shompoo cruise boat north-west from Luang Prabang to Pak Beng today, upstream following the Mighty Mekong. An overnight stop here and onwards tomorrow to Houay Xai.
The cruise cost is £95 per person for 2 full days on the boat. That includes 1 breakfast, 2 lunches, 2 tour stops (inc entry fee) and refreshments & fruit throughout. Maximum 35 people on board. There were 11 guests on today’s trip. I read it was better to go upstream as the boats are quieter. I was impressed with the standard of the boat and the service was excellent.
It is cheaper to book the cruise when you are in Luang Prabang. Also, book your overnight in Pak Beng independently for cheaper rates.
You can take the standard boat for around £25 to the same destination. However, no extras are included and the boats can carry up to 80 people. Take warm clothes for the trip - it is very chilly here in the mornings and more so on the water. Afternoons are hot!
The scenery is great and there is activity to look out for on the water and shoreline. Water buffalo, longboats, fishermen, daily life...
Here is today’s 9 hour trip condensed into 5 minutes.
Be sure to check out my website for more travel blogs, tips and much more.
Luxe slowboat to Luang Prabang, Laos
After 2 months of Thailand, it is time for a new adventure so we took the best slowboat we found to Laos with the company Shompoo cruise and we really recommend them! Is was so beautiful, so quiet.. when we arrived we stayed 5 night in Luang Prabang and this city is one of our favorites till now. We did so many nice things, enjoy our highlights!
Laos - Luang Prabang - Slow Boat
There is a public boat service between ancient royal capital Luang Prabang - pak Beng - Huay Xai. It is slow but sort of unique in a way. The return trip is 4 day long. I went on the 2 day trip Luang Prabang to Pak Beng section, 8hr trip each day.
This is a public transport, but 80% of the travellers are foreign tourists. It costs around $30 USD per person one way for foreigners, ($10 for local residents). The local hotels can book it for you. It includes drop off at the boats place.

Interesting HIke up Phou Si Hill in Luang Prabang, Laos 4K
Only Steve wanted to climb Phou Si Hill in Luang Prabang, Laos as everyone else in our group was already hat and tired from a very active day. It was a very pleasant hike but hot. After our climb we treated ourselves to a refreshing fruit smoothie and a cramped tuk tuk ride back to the hotel. At the hotel I turned around and went back with others of our group to climb Phou Si Hill to catch the beautiful sunset. What an awesome day! September 17, 2016.

The slow boat trip takes two days to get from Luang Prabang to the border town of Huay Xai. Along the way, you spend the night in a river town called Pakbeng. When you arrive in Huay Xai, you may or may not be able to make it to the border in time to cross, so you might need to stay an extra night there. From Huay Xai, you can take a bus to Chiang Rai and other nearby towns.
