On a passé un bon moment, endroit respectueux des éléphants même si pour ma part on ne monte pas sur leur dos. Ça restera une journée gravée et une belle rencontre avec les éléphants et le personnel du sanctuaire

Our tour guide Bun was excellant and informative. We covered the citys' major sites, had a good experience and some insight into their daily life in the morning market. We had a wonderful lunch along the Mekong and got to see the elephants up close. Had to wait over 2 hours for a group coming from waterfall to join boat cruise. Cruise to pak ou caves was scenic and the boat was clean and well stocked with water, beer, and snacks. Sunset cruise was pleasant. Cool trip.

The trip exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful three-day trip, mostly because of our amazing and kind guide Vone. Our trip started off with the van ride to the trekking starting point, where we set out tracking into the village of Ngad. The trip had a big diversity of walking terrain, and Vone was good at explaining any questions we had during the trip. The Ngad village was an enormous experience, especially because it was clear that outside visits were a rarity, and the locals seemed excited to have us there, showing us around. We stayed with a local and very welcoming and generous family that prepared us food and made a traditional Khmu ceremony. Vone was, in general, extremely good at tailoring the trip to our wishes, and whatever we wanted to see and experience in the village, he would make it possible. For example, we got to visit the school, be a part of the English education, and play football against the kids at recess, see the local hospital and talk to the doctors, visit the village Shaman and see his ceremony, and much more. As we were extremely late at booking the trip, staying at the other village the second day wasn't a possibility - therefore Vone planned that we could stay at the Elephant Sanctuary, where he worked when he isn't on trips like these. The sanctuary was really nice, and Vone made sure that we got taken care of, and did not miss anything at all. The Sanctuary had lots of activities available, and we could freely choose whatever we wanted to do the last day - here Vone took us on an amazing kayaking trip to the nearby Buddha cave, and we got to ride the sanctuary's newly bought mountain bikes on a route nearby. We want to thank Vone and Manifa Travel for a wonderful trip and highly recommend anybody doing it as well.
