I had a great experience to ride a elephant. Riding elephants are very tough than horses because they don't have a chair on the elephants. I was exhausted but great. Almost people join the cave tour etc after lunch, but I resumed riding. I learned some languages to talk to elephants, and I rode an elephant by myself without support. (but, instructor walked beside of me & elephant) If you have time to spend in Luang Prabang, I recommend resuming riding after lunch.

Kuang Si waterfalls are very beautiful. We can swim in one of the ponds, it was cool so I forgot that there is ASEAN. There was deep in some spots in the pond, so we can dive into pond. The tour has 2 plans, I only joined half day tour. It was reasonable. But I was bored in the village.

Overall we are enjoying the trip given the timeframe for us to walk round take pictures, exploring the places and the time explanation by our tour guide Phong who is very knowledgable and deserve big tip from us. Only two drawbacks highlighted. First will be because this is shared tour, there could be sometime a bit not comfortable in terms of jamming within the tour buddies around in small van and sometimes give me myself as tall guy a bit of inconvenient. Second my experience engaging with Manifa sales rep that non responsive of WhatsApp sometimes gives nerve racking until i need to make sure this tour is really covered especially when luckily we found the company location within old town location which nearby with our accommodation. But overall still like this itinerary tour.

What a day! We can’t thank Manila travel enough for this amazing experience! All of the guides, drivers, cooks and everyone else involved were very friendly and helpful. We felt very looked after on this trip. We visited a lovely village with friendly people, cycled through beautiful countryside, kayaked along the river, had a delicious lunch, spent time with elephants and visited Pak Ou caves. I would recommend this for fit people that enjoy an active tour. I slightly over estimated my physical abilities but allowances were made for me which I really appreciated. Thank you so much for a brilliant day that I will never forget.

We had an amazing 1/2 day trip. Waterfalls were beautiful and lovely to swim in. It was great to see the moon bears at the Save The Bears sanctuary. Enjoyed learning about Hmong culture from our village visit. We had a fantastic, knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Highly recommended.
