Mr Thin is excellent! Extremely nice and attentive, he’s very interested in the groups different cultures. He speaks amazing English and even more languages, he knows a lot and loves to give you all the knowledge he has in Laos culture and Mai points. Very complete tour as well! You even get to see elephants at lunch with us amazing.

We had a great private full day tour of Luang Prabang with Mr Thin. The national museum was made more interesting by all the information given by Mr Thin. We visited the well known temples and had some nice lunch next to the river. I would highly recommend doing a private tour so you can see this laid back destination at your own pace and ask all the questions you want.

An excellent opportunity to learn how to grow rice and everything else regarding the product of the rice from seed to mouth. Sai was a terrific guide who kept us informed throughout.

This is a bit of a different review. We booked with Manifa Travel to do the mountain biking and kayaking whole day tour. Manifa picked us up on time and our guide Kone was very happy and informative. We set out biking and had the wonderful knowledge of Kone explaining what we were seeing on the route. Unfortunately my partner fell from his bike down a rocky slope and grazed both his knees. He was bleeding a lot and Kone immediately checked on him and administered basic first aid then he phoned for the car where two other members came and assisted us with more first aid and to take us to the local hospital where my partner received 5 stitches in his knee. The whole time Kone and the team at Manifa Travels were so supportive and caring for the both of us. They are a very professional company and even though our day did not go as planned, we are glad we booked with them. We are very thankful for how they cared for my partner.

Not worth the time, money or effort Boring falls below, 600 steps up to NO view. Don't bring a bathing suit or towel....no one in the water, no place to do it. Best part was watching my driver help the locals fix the bridge so we could cross it! Very can-do guide...

This os such am informative look into how rice is grown harvested and ends up on our dinner plate . Found this half day excursion a fun way to talk with the locals and gain information on how life on the land is and you get to meet Billy the buffalo

My favorite tour - we used Manifa tour in 2 of our activities in Laos. Ou tour guide, Poang, was exceptional from guiding us in merging rivers of Mekong River and Nan Ao River. Climbing the steps to cave temples were worth it, and swimming the Kuang Si Waterfalls was refreshing! The elephants were available during our lunch break too. It’s high activity day!

This was my favourite trip so far travelling in Asia, Chai the guide had incredible knowledge about the rivers and caves. The kayak part was beautiful peaceful and the views were out of this world. I have never been in a kayak before but it was quite easy. The caves are breath taking and the history was very intresting. We had a tasty and well prepared buffet lunch with a lot of choice where the elephants were walking around freely. The Waterfalls were stunning and not to busy late afternoon. We visited a small Tribe on the way back which will stay with me forever. the bus was clean and felt safe with the travel as the roads are bumpy

We did two tours with Manifa. The first one being an all day tour seeing Kuang Si Falls and other areas and the second being a half day elephant camp tour. Both were wonderful and we had the same tour guide both days. He was very patient with our group, friendly and knowledgeable. We had lunch at the elephant camp both days and the food was great. I love sugar cane and asked if I could have some and they cut me some without any hesitation! The elephants are well cared for and not abused. I would definitely recommend this travel company to others.

Beautiful falls amidst the jungle. Easy access and well maintained. Swim in the clear cool pools. A must experience when in Lusng Prabang

Manifa is maybe the best travel agencies I used in S E Asia. They are very professional. We traveled almost everywhere in the country, 10 days. They have new cars, professional drivers. Lahthe is the best guide I met there. He has experience, he knows everything. I strongly recommend Manifa.

The Living Land Farm experience is super insightful and it was very interesting to learn about rice farming with our own hands. Our guide, Johnny, was kind, captivating, humorous, and did a great job putting everything we did into perspective. On top of the rice farming, we also experienced bamboo weaving and sugar cane juicing. We had lunch, too, which showcased some traditional laotian meals with rice, and it was absolutely delicious! Additionally, they provided a tuktuk transfer to and from our hostel, and we were allowed to store our big luggage at the farm during our stay there. Overall great experince.

Big tourist attraction that is still worth a visit. Getting there: There are many minivans and buses and scooters that leave from Luang Prabang and park in purpose built carpark. You have to park here. Access: Tickets have to be purchased before everyone takes electric minivans to a central area (coffee shops etc) before there’s short walk up through the forests to a series on beautiful limestone falls. Swimming: You can swim in most of the falls but not the top, most significant fall. Is it worth it? Yes. Even on a busy day like I went the waterfalls are beautiful and do bring your swimming gear because the water is wonderful and cooling.

The waterfall was very impressive—beautiful green water and multiple cascading falls. The Hmong Village was full of interesting and beautiful crafts. But it was more of a ride to the waterfall and a stop at a tourist village to buy souvenirs than a “tour”. The guide didn’t have a lot of information to share like many tours I’ve been on. Also the driver was very aggressive and there were a couple of times I didn’t feel safe.

Nice biking tour if you don’t set your expectations too high. We encountered native Laos villages and connected with locals. If you’re only interested in mountain biking and doing trails then don’t book this. Bikes are OK and the track is quite steep at some points but not as killing as some wrote (my wife managed this so it’s doable;). Provision of water and showers and great lunch after the trip.
