Embark on a two-hour sunset cruise on the Mekong River aboard Laos’ first eco-friendly, solar-powered boat, and experience Luang Prabang from a peaceful and unforgettable perspective.
As you gently glide along the river, the sky transforms into a canvas of golden and amber hues, creating the perfect setting for stunning photos and Instagram moments. This slow-paced cruise is ideal for families, couples, friends, and leisure travellers looking to relax and connect with nature during their holiday.
Begin your journey with a complimentary Lao mojito, served as you settle in and enjoy the calm atmosphere of the Mekong. As evening falls and temperatures cool, cosy blankets are provided, ensuring a comfortable return to the dock under the stars.
During the cruise, take part in a traditional Lao river ceremony. Write your wishes on a bamboo leaf and gently release them into the river, along with a small fish — a symbolic gesture representing letting go of burdens and welcoming good fortune.
A curated Lao tasting platter is served on board, showcasing the diversity and flavours of local cuisine. While presented as a single shared platter in keeping with Lao dining traditions, it includes a variety of authentic dishes, such as:
Sticky Rice (Chao Mal)
Mekong River Weed (Khai Phen)
Fried Spring Rolls (Nam Juan)
Fresh Spring Rolls (Nam Dip)
Steamed Fish in Banana Leaves (Mok Pah)
Chopped Pork Stuffed in Lemongrass (Oua Si Khai – bite-sized portion)
Stir-fried Mixed Vegetables (Puk Luam Mit)
Savour these local flavours as you watch the Mekong at twilight — a moment of culture, taste, and quiet magic, aligned with sustainable and socially responsible tourism.
Please note:
The Lao tasting is served as a shared platter, following traditional Lao culinary customs, and portioned to allow guests to sample each dish.
The cruise departs daily between 4:30PM and 5:00 PM and returns around 6:30PM and 7:00 PM, with an approximate duration of 2 hours. Timing may vary slightly depending on Mekong River conditions and safety considerations.
