Trek along the edge of the Bolaven Plateau on three to five day guided tours. Journey deep into the jungle and explore different waterfalls on private, Bolaven owned, land. This region’s unspoiled natural setting has a rich, biodiverse ecosystem. There is something special about being in places that no man/woman has been before. The guided tours include a survivor skills and tips portion. An English speaking Bolaven farmer who knows everything there is to know about the area will teach you what to eat, where you can find it and how to survive in the jungle.
Visitors can enjoy an informative coffee tour at the heart of Lao’s coffee capital. Tour the coffee plantations and the organic coffee farm. Stroll through lines of brilliant-green, broad-leaved Arabica plants growing from the rich volcanic red earth. Receive a guided walk-through of the production process from husking to drying, to hand picking and see the Bolaven villagers at work. Take a lesson in how to roast coffee by wok and bring home your creation.
Take a zip-line tour through the jungle of southern Laos. Get an exhilarating rush as you fly over deep ravines, skim over roaring waterfalls and brush the top of the lush green jungle canopy.
