Southeast Asia on a Shoestring - Laos

A land of the lotus eaters amid the bloated development of its neighbours, Laos brings together the best of Southeast Asia in one bite-sized destination, and appears as a favourite in many Southeast Asian odysseys.

- experience Luang Prabang, the ancient city of temples that has it all: royal history, Indo-chinese chic, colourful monks, waterfalls, stunning river views and world-class French cuisine

- take a boat ride through exhilaratingly spooky Tham Kong Lo, a 7.5km cave home to fist-sized spiders and stalactite woods

- trek and zip across the forest by day at the Gibbon Experience in Huay Xai, guided by ex-poachers turned forest rangers, and sleep in cosy treehouses at night
