Discover The Adrenaline Adventures Of Laos

From the temples of Cambodia to the beaches of Thailand, there are many parts of Southeast Asia that have long been on the tourist trail, but landlocked Laos, with its landscape of mountains, jungles and rolling hills, is where you’ll find true adventure.

A multisport tour provides you with the opportunity to experience some of the activities on offer in the natural setting of Laos. With the peaceful rice paddies, local villages and deep countryside, one of the best ways to get around is by bike. When you’re immersed in this landscape, there are a multitude of things you might discover.

The town of Vang Vieng, some four hours north of the Laos capital of Vientiane, is one of the most extraordinary cycling destinations with a karst hill landscape. Riding out of town, you can visit hidden caves with secret corridors, wells and underground lakes. Should the combination of cycling and the warm climate make you work up a sweat, you can cool off with a dip in Blue Lagoon before making your way back into the town.

After a night’s rest, why not head deeper into the countryside on foot? Depending on the season, you may have to work your way across small streams and rapids using ropes, as you trek further and the terrain gets steeper and steeper. Along the way, you’ll be met with cascading waterfalls that tumble down the mountain, as well as incredible views as you climb higher and higher. For an authentic night in the jungle, you can sleep under the stars or in a bamboo hut.

Waking up within the Laos jungle can no doubt quench your thirst for nature, but nothing can truly make you feel more like Tarzan than a treetop adventure. Zip-lining almost the entire way back down the mountain, you travel from platform to platform (some of them 50 metres high) past towering trees and gushing waterfalls.

As a landlocked country, Laos may not have the bays and beaches that we know of Asia, but it boasts some of the finest rivers that can satisfy the keenest of water sport enthusiasts. Whether you want to paddle through calm waters and admire the scenery or take on the rapids, kayaking is just another way to travel through Laos. Leave one village and arrive at another, watch local fishermen cast their nets, and discover stunning gorges for cliff jumping.

You can experience all of these activities on the six-day Laos Multisport tour from Faralong.com. Providing packages with a difference, each tour has a starting price, which reduces per person as more passengers book. The more passengers, the less each has to pay. Private bookings can also be made, with additional guests added on using a private tour code, again making the cost for each person decrease per additional member. If two people are travelling on the Laos Multisport tour, the cost is €1,095pp, but if four people book the tour, it decreases to €925pp and so on. The maximum number of passengers on the Laos Multisport tour is 12.

You can also experience the adrenaline activities of Thailand on the 10-day Thai Multisport Adventure, including kayaking in Khao Sok National Park, trekking in the Phuket jungle, riding a long-tail boat in Koh Yao Yai, and paddle boarding, rock climbing and abseiling in Krabi,
