- StephMelbourne, Australia92 contributionsA highlight of our trip and a day to remember. We wanted to do an ethical elephant experience and this was the right one. No riding or touching, just being with the elephants and walking with them. The guides were great and you could tell they all were passionate about the animals welfare. Highly recommend!Written 22 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Grace10Seattle, WA9 contributionsThe ropes course and zip lining were amazing. The staff were well trained and helpful! This was the first time doing an outside ropes course, and I felt safe despite the trickiness of the course. One of the guides carried my phone to take pictures for my friend and I throughout the entire course. The views from the zip line were beautiful!!Written 28 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- John R27 contributionsWhat a fantastic day with our guide Ding and the crew at the Elephant Village Sanctuary. We loved the up close (& ethical) experience with the elephants, the trip on a long boat out to a beautiful waterfall, where all our kids had a blast and back to Elephant Village for a lovely meal on the NamKhan river when we got back. Thanks Ding.Written 20 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- John Napier13 contributionsWe took the three day jungle immersion experience from Luang Namtha. First a big thank you to our guide Peng, who was knowledgeable, experienced, kind and utterly competent. Second the jungle is beautiful and a really wonderful place to spend time. The village was friendly and relaxed, lovely swimming and nice to sit around. A pleasant culture show as well, but very much a show. The food in the village was fine. But nothing could match what Peng and his friends prepared in the jungle.
Then why not 5 stars? The website lets you know that it is rough trekking, and we were prepared for that. But it should be made clear that the trekking is at times quite dangerous, on narrow and slippery paths across steep slopes. I would have probably not undertaken this had there been sufficient indication of this.Written 1 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our guide Kamhdee and one other guy met up and first went to their shop where we got geared up. This part was great as we all got full gear including boots, chest and arm protector, knee pads, jacket and helmet. The gear is all used, but in good shape and is exactly what you need to be safe.
The tour was great and Kamhdee spoke excellent English and was good at gauging our abilities and tailoring the tour to us. It was a perfect way to get out and see the mountains of Laos and explore the Mekong region in areas that most people don’t go to. And to do it while having a blast on motorbikes was definitely the way to go. 5 stars all around.Written 3 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
