Laos · CANOES & KAYAKS
The Nam Song is gentle, the Nam Ou is quieter and the Mekong is neither. These 14 paddles are priced and timed, with the caves, lagoons and lunches each one folds into the day.
Kayak the Nam Song, tube through wartime caves, enjoy a Lao picnic, and add zip lining or Blue Lagoon 1 on this Vang Vieng day tour.
“Great day kayaking on the river, tubing and caving was good and zip lining was fantastic! Such beautiful views and scenery. Great lunch provided too, I would highly recommend.”
Kayak the Nam Song, tube through caves, enjoy a banana-leaf BBQ, and explore Vang Vieng on this lively five-hour adventure.
“Overall the tour was good. The small rapids are exciting. Transport in an open Tuktuk was very cold in the morning, so bring something extra to wear. My tour was supposed to be 7 hours but we were rushed all day and I was back an hour early. I would have like to have more breaks between all the activities. If the Ziplining is not included in your package you can buy it for about 15$ there. Otherwise you will have to wait for all Zipliners around 40min. But it was fun. The tubing in the cave is a 10min activity. All in all a nice day and well organised,…”

Review of Vang Vieng’s balloon ride, kayaking, caves, zipline, and Blue Lagoon, with practical tips on timing, transport, value, and comfort.
“Pick up was late (40mins) for balloon ride- but balloon was great. Pick up for day activity was late again ( waited 45mins - so 15 mins late) . Guides didn’t speak English so weren’t sure what we were doing when - had a good day though with activities .Lunch was a bit disappointing & venue was dirty - our guide dropped off at the last activity & left us with the driver.”

Bick showed us so many new things, he was always cheerful and easygoing. I can’t recommend enough as this trip has all the best experience you can have in Nong Khiaw. I would totally do it again, thank you very much for these wonderful memories ❤️🙏”
