Welcome to the Luangsay
Cruise, a unique and exciting way of
discovering the delights of Northern Laos in style, safety and
comfort. Featuring a brand new river cruise boat and a Laotian
style lodge on the banks of the Mekong, the Luangsay Cruise
offers the intrepid traveler two idyllic days and one night on
the "Mother of Waters". It's a chance to visit a
region that has hitherto been virtually inaccessible. The
route is on a stretch of the Mekong between the
world heritage site of Luang Prabang, the former royal capital
of Laos and one of the best preserved ancient cities in Asia,
and Houeisay, a border town between Laos and Thailand, which
is quite a busy and prosperous town.
