Rainy Season Activity: River Travel in Luang Namtha

Flowing from its source in Luang Namtha Province’s northern hills the Nam Tha River is one of the main tributaries of the Mekong. Along its journey south it is joined by the Nam Ha River, which rises from the forests of the Nam Ha National Protected Area. Traveling by river is one of the best ways to visit local people as well as spot wildlife. For adventuresome travelers, try a 2-day journey down the Namtha River to the Mekong, and then on to either Ban Houi Xay in Bokeo Province or Luang Prabang. For kayaking and rafting tours contact Green Discovery Laos. For motorized boat trips contact the Boat Landing Guesthouse. For more information about rivers in Laos click here.
