This full day biking tour will take you to some great destinations where you will cycle about 50km over mixed trail - paved road and unpaved off-road. The riding level is medium. The time in each destination can be flexible as per your request as long as it doesn’t affect the whole plan.
At the departure time around 8am, you will be greeted and picked up by a local tour guide at your hotel. You are then transferred to a bike shop to pick a mountain bike for your tour.
You start the biking adventure by riding out of town along the Mekong River. After crossing the old communist bridge, you stop by a traditional village, Xieng Lek which is widely well-known for making mulberry paper and weaving. You leave the village and continue riding along Nam Xuang River through villages and scenic countryside landscape. Don’t forget to take photos of these beautiful and peaceful sceneries.
Then, you finish riding on nice road to start the next session of off-road route. You will cycle up and down the hills into countryside. You will cycle along beautiful vast rice fields and local villages such as Lao Leum, Hmong, and Khmu. You will also have a chance to talk to local people there, take photos with them and observe their daily activities.
Leaving these villages behind, you keep on riding along the Nam Khan River to the last destination of the tour, the beautiful WatPhonPhao or the “Peacefulness Temple”. This Buddhist temple is located on a hill towards the southeast of Luang Prabang and is well-known for its huge golden stupa and an incredible view overlooking all of Luang Prabang.
After exploring this temple, you ride back to the bike shop and return the bike.
End the tour around 5pm.
