  Luang Prabang and Elephant riding

  Unlike other alluring destinations in Southeast Asia, where legions of fellow travelers can overwhelm the integrity of the place itself, Luang Prabang still feels fresh. A town on the make. A city yet to be discovered.Once the royal capital of Laos, Luang Prabang nestles up against the milk coffee-colored Mekong River. Its wats, the architecture of its royal palaces and its ubiquitous wooden houses create a timeless ambiance that almost feels forgotten though hardly woebegone.<br><br>UNESCO declared this “delightful little town” as the French naturalist-explorer Henri Mouhot knew it, a World Heritage Site in 1995. The town’s Buddhist aura emanates from a plethora of irresistible wats, or pagodas, and from a daily, early morning trudge for alms through town by saffron-robed monks.Today, the royal palace is a museum, housing holy icons, paintings and china. Another, more fantastic collection of relics lies upstream along the Mekong in the Pak Ou Caves. At the Mekong’s confluence with the Nam Ou, a cave in a bluff on the river keeps a pantheon of small Buddhist statues.UNESCO hailed Luang Prabang as the “the best preserved city in Asia” when the organization inscribed the destination in 1995. Nothing has changed about that since.

  The Wild North-West Loop

  Despite the rough roads the Northern Loop tour has become a bit of a classic.

The region is also home to numerous colourful ethnic minority groups. The trip also includes a visit to the historic battlefield of Dien Bien Phu. This northern loop, you have chance to stay in the traditional long house on stilts, take part in performance of folk songs and dance and drink sweet rice wine of the Thai ethnic minority people at Mai Chau, Hoa Binh. You will discover the undiscovered part of Vietnam and definitively enjoy the folk life of the people.

  Condao Island Vacation

  In colonial times, the islands of Con Dao (also known as Poulo Condore) were much feared, as a notorious French prison was located on Con Son, the largest island of this remote southern archipelago. Many of Vietnam's most famous freedom fighters served time on this lonely, windswept island, which lies 185 km south east of the port city of Vung Tau. Today, the archipelago's residents survive by fishing, diving for pearls, collecting swallows' nests, and farming. Visitors will find starkly beautiful cliffs, long, untouched beaches, and patches of thick, old-growth forest. Sea turtles lay their eggs on the islands' remote beaches, while dolphins live offshore. Just 60 minutes flight by Vietnam Airlines from Ho Chi Minh City, Con Dao offers the perfect escape from modern life.
