Overview
Our tours around Laos are carefully selected and personally tailored for any level of rider. We will take you off the beaten path and onto a journey of a lifetime. You can experience the traditional way of life in local Lao villages, view majestic waterfalls in various provinces, and discover pristine landscapes not found anywhere else. Tours can range from a single day trip to a week-long expedition. Should you not be able to find a tour that suits your specific needs, we will be happy to customize a ride just for you.
- Day 1 - LUANG PRABANG – VIENG THONG
You will begin the tour by riding northeast out of town on a short stretch of tarmac before switching over to a stunning graded section through the Lao countryside. You will then turn back onto the tarmac for roughly 70km into Vieng Thong, a small Lao village that is far from the tourist trail. We will stay overnight here at local guesthouse.
- Day 2 - VIENG THONG – PHONSAVAN
Today, you will begin riding off-road along dirt trails heading south towards Phonsavanh, the capital of Xiangkhoang Province. The route from Vieng Thong has some challenging twist and turns that will take us up to the old United States’ air base, LS36, and to the steel drum village of Ban Nakout before emerging into the wide-open plains of jars in Phonsavanh.
- Day 3 - PHONSAVAN – LUANG PRABANG
After breakfast, you will head out west on wide open roads through some remote areas of the country, With over 140 km of off-road riding, this will be one of your longest days out on the bike. This route features some river crossings and challenging trails through the mountains as you head back to Luang Prabang.
