Southeast Asia is one big hot, steamy, chaotic sensory overload of all things foreign, fascinating and sometimes downright weird! Don\u2019t be lured into thinking Thailand\u2019s beaches are the main attraction. While Hollywood movies like The Beach have romanticized the Thai beach scene, in reality you will probably end up on a crowded beach packed with Western tourists hoovering down as many bucket cocktails as they can during their seven-day holiday.<\/p>\n

If you have any sense of adventure, you\u2019ll steer away from the beach scene and look for some of the more intriguing cultural experiences on offer around Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n

For a more immersive \u2018off the beaten track adventure\u2019 head north of Bangkok via Chiang Mai and start your adventure in Laos. This tranquil oasis nestled between northern Thailand and Vietnam has a serene charm which has yet to be bombarded with tourism. The landscape offers beautiful luscious countryside divided by curling rivers and impressive mountains.<\/p>\n

6 Must Do Experiences in Laos:<\/h1>\n

A real Mekong River homestay experience<\/h2>\n
\"Stray

This is not a standard tourist experience and can only be facilitated through reputable tour operators, but it is absolutely worth the effort. Stray Asia (a New Zealand owned and operated hop-on, hop-off bus network) goes into Ban Pack Nguay, a tiny remote village, twice a week. The adventure starts with a slow boat cruise down the Mekong River before arriving on the riverbanks of the village. You\u2019ll be welcomed ashore with the opportunity to explore village life, including visits to the local school before settling into an evening with the locals, complete with a traditional Lao feast. A highlight of the homestay experience is the traditional Baci ceremony conducted by the village elders in which ones lost spirits are called back to be reconnected to the soul.<\/p>\n

Rice is Life \u2013 The Living Land Farm (Luang Prabang)<\/h2>\n
\"Stray

Anyone who spends more than five minutes in Laos will quickly realise \u2018sticky rice\u2019 is the country\u2019s culinary lifeline and has been for thousands of years. The Living Land Farm is an organic sticky rice farm on the outskirts of Luang Prabang. Visitors spend a morning with a family and gain an insightful and very hands-on education into the 14 stages of rice cultivation. If the sound of rice farming doesn\u2019t light your fire, don\u2019t be fooled. Spending a half day on this farm with its charming well-spoken family is considered one of the top experiences in Laos.<\/p>\n

The Plain of Jars (Phonsavan)<\/h2>\n
\"Stray

Accessible from Luang Prabang, Phonsavan is home to a remarkable piece of history that to this day remains one of the world\u2019s great archaeological mysteries. Sometimes called the\u2019 Stonehenge of Asia,\u2019 the 2,500-year-old Plain of Jars is part of a protected parkland where thousands of giant stone \u2018jars\u2019 lie nestled in the grasslands. Some say they were used as part of an ancient crematorium, while others theorize they were simply rainwater storage containers. Who built them, why they are there and what purpose they served is a topic of speculation, but no one really knows for sure. While the Phonsavan township is nothing to write home about, the nearby parklands are quite beautiful and you can easily pass a day or two exploring the three jar sites which are open to the public.<\/p>\n

Nam Nern Night Safari (Nam Et-Phou Louey)<\/h2>\n
\"Stray

Not far from the Plain of Jars is the Nam Et-Phou Louey<\/a> National Protected Area, a mountainous region that is protected in order to maintain its unique forest biodiversity which includes a number of rare endangered species. It is one of the last remaining places in the world to find a sustainable population of wild tigers. The only way for outsiders to visit Nam Et-Phou Louey is on a Nam Nern Night Safari, operated by a group dedicated to creating a sustainable livelihood for the rural Lao communities through tourism in the area. Not only will you experience a once-in-a-lifetime overnight tour with night time wildlife spottings by boat, but you will also be supporting the local community and its conservation efforts in the process.<\/p>\n

Kong Lor Cave (Kong Lor)<\/h2>\n
\"Stray

It doesn\u2019t always make the visitor hit list because it\u2019s definitely off the beaten track (like most of southern Laos), but the 7km long Kong Lor Cave is often categorised as one of Southeast Asia\u2019s most amazing natural wonders and it should not be missed. The wow factor is found in the cave\u2019s sheer size. The monstrous 7km tunnel under dramatic karst mountains, houses a river which runs up to 20 metres wide in some places, while the cave\u2019s ceiling soars to a jaw dropping 50 metres. A motorised long tail boat and local guide is required to navigate through the subterranean world of the cave, an experience made all the more memorable when you only have a headlight to guide you through the darkness.<\/p>\n

Si Phan Don Archipelago \u2013 the 4,000 Islands<\/h2>\n
\"Stray
Stay Asia travellers enjoy drinks along the Don Det River.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

At the southernmost tip of Laos, the mighty Mekong River splits and then splinters to form a cluster of islands that is becoming increasingly popular on the backpacking trail through Southeast Asia. Don\u2019t let its growing popularity discourage you \u2013 the 4,000 Islands manage to find the perfect balance of truly impressive scenery and a young adventurous vibe. Stay on Don Det, right in the heart of the archipelago, and you can mingle with other travellers, swapping travel stories while relaxing in hammocks overlooking the river. You can use this island as a base to enjoy lazy days of river tubing, kayaking and boat excursions in search of the rare freshwater Irrawaddy dolphin. Hire a bike and venture over the French bridge to the neighbouring Don Khon for a day of exploring in rice paddies and forests.<\/p>\n

Getting Around…<\/h2>\n

When it comes to getting around Laos, the country is working to improve its infrastructure as more tourists discover its charms. Public buses and boats are the main methods of transport, but you will find that public transport only connects larger towns, which means many of the most intriguing historical sites, caves and waterfalls are hard to reach.<\/p>\n

Stray Asia<\/a><\/span> operates an extensive adventure bus network which traverses Laos from North to South before crossing into Cambodia.<\/p>\n

So…is Laos on your bucket list yet?<\/p>\n
