One of the most remote regions in Southeast Asia, Northern Laos is a stronghold for subsistence farming tribal communities. Over 30 unique tribes maintain traditional culture and customs, living out life in the remote and inaccessible hills and valleys like their ancestors have for generations.This 9-day journey takes riders deep into the heart of hilltribe country on a rugged and wild ride filled with raw adventure.
This mountain biking adventure delves into the wild and mountainous backyard of this fascinating patchwork of tribal people, by single track and dirt village roads. Beginning in charming Luang Prabang, veer far off the tourist trail and into mountainous tribal territory as you work your way through mountain valleys and villages. Encounter authentic tribal communities, breathtaking mountain scenery, and unparalleled off-road and single track riding, before returning to Luang Prabang. Climb into the hills, through thick jungle pathways, isolated mountainsides, and remote river valleys on a journey that's as rewarding as it is challenging. Meet curious locals who are certainly not used to mountain bikers, and take in virgin views of some of Southeast Asia's most impressive scenery by day, and a clear, starry sky by night.
Join us on this 9-day pure trail adventure, waiting for you in Laos!

This tour will serve different activities based on 2 different seasons: high water season and low water season. It will be a lot of fun during the high water season when the waterfall is flowing, but dirty roads can be more challenging. So it depends on your preferences to choose the one that best suits you.
Here is the detail program for each season:
High water season (August to January):
At the departure time around 8 am, you will be welcome at the bike shop by a local tour guide. You will be given a well-maintained mountain bike as your main transportation of your bike tour.
You will start the tour by cycling from the city center to Wat Pa PhonPhao temple, the first destination of the tour. You will not only visit and enjoy the fantastic beauty of this golden temple but also get a great view over Luang Prabang city.
Then, you continue riding your bike along a paved road through the teakwood forests and rice paddy fields. After enjoying the beautiful landscape with fresh atmosphere, you cycle along the Nam Khan River to visit the resting place of Henry Mouhot, an Anglophile French naturalist widely known as the “discoverer” of Angkor Wat.
After visiting the tomb, you continue biking through villages and past jungle-covered mountains until you reach the pier located on the banks of the Nam Khan River. Here, you will embark on a boat to cruise up the river to Tad Sae waterfall where you’ll have lunch in a beautiful landscape. After lunch, you can swim in the jungle. In addition, you can see and take photos of elephants there. It’s advisable that you buy some bananas and feed the elephants.
You then get on boat to head back to the camping site. You cycle back to Luang Prabang city following a route with beautiful scenery.
The tour ends about 5 pm.
Low water season (February to July):
In the low water season, Tad Sae waterfall is dry. You will then take a boat ride and walk into the jungle to see baby elephants instead of the waterfall. However, it still depends on the location and availability of the elephants.

The Land of a Million Elephants, as Laos was once known, is a haven in a fast-paced world, a country whose citizens have retained a charm and grace that is as rare as it is valuable. The mountains and rivers are pristine in this land-locked country bounded by China, Burma, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.
As part of Indochina, Laos was colonized by the French and the cities of Vientiane, Luang Prabang and Pakse have inherited the classical, elegant, if a bit faded, character only French architects can inspire. Laos has fascinating sights to offer: the Plain of Jars in Xieng Khuang Province, the forested mountains of Northern Laos, the gothic limestone karsts around Vang Vieng and Si Phan Don (Four Thousand Islands) where the mighty Mekong spreads in the Southern Laos. However, it is the warmth and sincere friendliness of its people that will live forever in the hearts of anyone fortunate enough to visit.
Our Southern Laos tour is a sojourn along the Mekong River to the former colonial outpost of Champasak, the serene beauty of Si Phan Don and the rich fertile lands of the coffee growing Bolevan Plateau. From the natural attractions of amazing waterfalls to the jungle wildlife to the cultural Khmer temples of Wat Phu, this tour explores the quiet back roads of South Laos.

Honest insights from past guests on our Bicycle Laos tours
Anonymous | Traveled in October
A sensible blend of the three activities, Hiking, Paddling and Cycling. All seemed to go to plan and the crew were interesting and informative. They even were able to stop the rain on our cycle / paddle trip to Tonle Sap lake.

I'm still trying to process this trip because we packed in so much. In 3 words it was amazing, humbling and exhausting! Our guides were warm and generous with their knowledge and stories about their own lives. I loved visiting the villages and seeing every day life. I loved the food. I loved it all! It was a special trip and I will always remember the warmth, joy and humour of everyone we encountered.

All was organized very well and the guides were awesome. The only issue I found was that some of the itinerary was not followed because the guide decided the traffic was too heavy or it was too hot. This was in relation to the cycling. When the itinerary says 40ks, thats what I am paying for. There were too many temples attended to and some of the hikes were a bit boring.
