Laos’ 18 provinces present a diverse natural and cultural landscape with a myriad of ecotourism activities.

Visitors can trek or cycle through the green forests carpeting the endless mountains, kayak or raft down rivers carving through canyons, hike to cascading waterfalls and hidden caves, and search for rare wildlife.  

Laos’ provinces are also ethnically diverse, with remote villages housing communities of ethnic minorities whose lifestyles, cultures and traditions have remained intact over the centuries.

Many of these villages offer overnight home stays, providing visitors with a closer insight into Laos’ magnificent cultural heritage.
